History
Artist & Designer
Aimee Less views projects as a composition where color, materiality and textures are
applied in proportion to create the desired effect— earthly, colorful, functional spaces
reflective of the people who inhabit them.
Applying her fine art background, Aimee’s process-oriented approach to interiors visualizes
interiors as a total composition where color, materiality and textures are layered and built
up to create aesthetic balance and elicit an emotional reaction.
Working within a broad mixture of project types and scales, Aimee has designed interiors
and furnishings for private residences, hospitality, institutional, and commercial projects.
Prior to starting her private practice, Aimee was Director of Interior Design at RIOS..
During her decade-long tenure there, she led numerous projects, collaborating with teams
composed of interior designers, architects, landscape architects, graphic designers and
various consultants. Born and raised in Memphis, Aimee’s passion for the creative arts has
led her to study a project, and work as a fine artist, a ceramicist, web designer, and ultimately
as an interior designer -- all skills and sensibilities she brings into her interiors work.
She earned her Environmental Design degree at Art Center College of Design, a Bachelor of
Fine Arts from Syracuse University, and studied sculpture at Camberwell College of Arts and
Crafts in London. She has traveled widely, and held artist residencies at Arad Arts Project
in Israel and The Almond Grove Studio in Thessaloniki, Greece. She has exhibited her furniture
at the Milan Furniture Fair’s Salone Satellite and at ICFF in New York.
Approach
Studio Aimee Less is a Los Angeles based interior design studio who creates thoughtfully
planned and soulfully curated environments for high-end residential and boutique
commercial clients. Founded by veteran designer Aimee Less, the Studio infuses projects
with sophistication, marrying warmth and individuality with a modernist aesthetic.
Committed to the idea that every project has a unique outcome, we work closely with
each client to design environments that emanate a distinct personality, paying special
attention to context, details, and lifestyle. We love to join the team in the early stages of
a project, as engaging deeply in the planning process is an investment which allows us to
maximize the possibilities of a space, and to reflect and expand the eventuality of a client’s
way of inhabiting the environment.
We take particular joy in creating custom-designed furniture, curating furnishings and art,
and we revel in bringing in unexpected elements, materials, and color. We value honesty
and attention to detail. Developing personal and trusting relationships with our clients and
the larger architectural and construction team is a priority because we believe it is the key to
creating a successful and joyful shared vision.
