ABOUT LAUREN HESSE DESIGN

Lauren Hesse, Principal

Meet Lauren Founder of Lauren Hesse Design. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Lauren’s guiding light for LHD is centred around how she approaches any project with her clients. “We focus on holistic design that is built for real life”.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Her passion for creating beautiful spaces that fit people’s lives comes through with every project. She has an art & architectural history background, in addition to studying interior design and architectural technology. For a total of 9 years of post-secondary education and almost 20 years of experience. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
“My educational background allows me to view a building in its various contexts of time. I pay homage to those times as a base while improving upon them to meet contemporary living standards and styles.” ⁠⁠

“When connecting with a new client, the first thing I do is look to understand where they are in their life stage and then identify how to make the space function perfectly for their lifestyle. I build the design for every specific client based on these pillars, plus their unique style preferences.”⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Her inspiration comes from some of the greatest history has to offer. “I’ve always been inspired by history, whether great architects like Frank Lloyd Wright or Gaudi, or artistic groups like the Group of 7 and the European Impressionists —there’s a takeaway from their visual rhetoric that’s relevant to both their time and our own. We need to glean and learn from the past before we can move forward.”
