We are overstimulated and undernourished at the same time.
What is missing is not more content, another event or wellness.
The ability to actually feel.
dot & salt creates conditions for people to feel something real -
through art that works on you, not art you stand in front of politely.
About
Dot is the beginning of a story, the seed of an idea.
Salt is the essence that preserves, enhances, and transforms.
Lyubov Matyunina
Founder & Presence Designer,
dot & salt
"I create experiences the way I create artworks - with intention, precision, and a sense of wonder. My work lives where contemporary art meets ancient myth, where design becomes story, and where beauty becomes a strategic force.
Trained at the Rietveld Academy, I have spent 15 years shaping worlds in visual art, film, and live experience, now building Presence Design as a practice: the architecture of real encounter.
Every project is a co-authored myth. Every space — a place where something genuinely arrives."
With love,
Lyubov
How we work
PRECISION
MYTHOLOGY
REAL
RARITY
PRESENCE
Precision over spectacle
We work with the attention of an artist, not the speed of an agency. Every element is there because it needs to be.
Mythology as structural intelligence
Ancient frameworks applied to contemporary life, not as decoration, but as method. Humans have always known how to move through what matters. We use that knowledge.
The real over the comfortable
Something genuine in the room over something impressive on a screen. We design for what actually happens, not what photographs well.
Rarity by intention
We take few projects. Each one receives everything.
Presence as the practice
What becomes possible when people stop performing and start arriving.
We design for those who understand that imagination is not a luxury. It is a strategic force.
And that what changes in a room, changes what's possible outside it.
