Lorena D’Anca

Founder · Interior Designer · Creative Director

Lorena is an interior designer and the studio’s Creative Director.

Read biography

Her work encompasses concept design, interior styling, detailed design and furniture selection, including Hotel Eden Spa and private residences in Italy and Cambodia. She develops the relationships between colour, proportion, materials and light, considering how they change the way a room feels. Alongside the architectural work, she carries that character into the scale of furniture, the texture of a surface and the placement of a light.

Architecture and atmosphere.

We begin with the way people live, welcome guests and find privacy. Those habits shape the plan, from sightlines between shared and private rooms to furniture, storage and lighting.

Andrea’s architectural and engineering perspective meets Lorena’s work with proportion, colour and materials. Together, they develop interiors with space for the client’s routines, collections and individual taste.

Drawing and making

Direct relationships with Italian manufacturers and workshops connect drawings with material samples and the people making the work. Selected details and workshop photographs appear in our construction documentation.

Sikder Haus in Dhaka combines headquarters, executive and social spaces with two private apartments. AD’s integrated work included interior design, bespoke development, engineering and importation, coordinated with local teams.

Our work for SG Headquarters at Conrad Business Center, Dubai covered executive offices and meeting spaces, with interior design and technical development. KOI Restaurant, Bangkok, and KOI Villa, Phuket, involved owner-side design direction alongside the appointed design teams.

The interiors arm of your private office.
