Meet Shani Rubinstein | Principal

We had the good fortune of connecting with Shani Rubinstein and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Shani, what is the most important factor behind your success?
I owe my business success as a commercial interior designer to a few important factors that have really made a difference in helping me grow. One of the biggest contributors has been my ability to build strong and lasting relationships with my clients. Understanding their unique visions and needs is always a priority for me, and I make sure to keep the communication lines open throughout the entire design process. This approach has built trust, kept clients happy, and led to great referrals.
Another factor that has given me an edge is my multicultural background and my ability for customizing design styles to fit each project. I don’t believe in sticking to just one style for my design studio. Instead, I have the ability to bring my clients’ visions to life in a way that is not only visually appealing but also functional. This versatility is something that makes my work stand out in the industry.
I also strongly focus on the balance between aesthetics and practicality in my designs. It’s not just about making things look good; it’s about making them work well too. By considering both aspects, I create spaces that not only look inviting but also serve their intended purpose effectively.
Thanks to these factors I’ve been able to keep growing and build a strong business. It’s incredibly fulfilling to see the impact of my work and the joy it brings to my clients.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
At Rush Creative Studio, our mission is to transform spaces and create extraordinary experiences. We take great pride in our ability to blend striking aesthetics with thoughtful functionality. Our designs are a reflection of our deep understanding of our clients’ needs, aspirations, and visions. We believe that every space has its own story to tell, and we strive to bring that story to life through our designs.
Getting to where we are today hasn’t been an easy journey. Like any business, we’ve faced challenges along the way. However, we’ve always approached these challenges as opportunities for growth and learning. We’ve learned to adapt, innovate, and find creative solutions to overcome obstacles. Our perseverance and resilience have been instrumental in our success.
One of the key lessons we’ve learned is the power of collaboration. We believe that the best designs come to life through a collective effort. Collaboration allows us to tap into diverse perspectives and expertise, resulting in designs that are truly exceptional.
Rush Creative Studio is more than just a design studio. We are storytellers, problem solvers, and creators of transformative spaces. We are here to make a positive impact through design, to inspire, and to create experiences that leave a lasting impression.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
We’ll kick off our day with a walk along the scenic Del Mar Beach or a hike at the Torrey Pines Reserve, returning thru the beach trail. Next, we’ll explore the neighborhoods of Little Italy and Sea Port Village. Will have a delicious Italian lunch at Bencotto, and then ice cream from Salt and Straw; finishing with a cup of joy from James Coffee.
Back to North County, will stop for dinner at Nick’s in One Paseo or we will enjoy nigiri pieces at Moment Sushi.
For breakfast, we’ll have plenty of options to choose from. Whether it’s Clair’s on Cedros, the modern delicacies at Gold Finch Modern Delicatessen, or the best chilaquiles from Cocina 55.
If time permits, we can spend time at Balboa Park. Exploring the Mingei International Museum and the Japanese Friendship Garden.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I’d love to dedicate this shoutout to my husband, who has been an incredible source of support and inspiration throughout my journey. He has always believed in me and encouraged me to pursue my passions and goals. His unwavering faith in my abilities has been a driving force behind my success.
My husband has been my rock, offering not only emotional support but also practical assistance whenever needed. He has stood by my side during the ups and downs, celebrating my victories and helping me during challenging times. His love and encouragement have given me the confidence to push boundaries and strive for excellence in my work.
Without his love, support, and understanding, I wouldn’t be where I am today. My husband deserves a significant amount of credit and recognition for being an integral part of my story and for helping me become the person I am today.
