OUR
STUDIO
Studio Aimee Less is a full-service interior design studio based in Los Angeles.
We work with residential and boutique commercial clients worldwide, offering interior architecture and design services for ground-up construction, full-scale renovation, and smaller-focus projects. Every project is led personally by Aimee — from the first conversation to the last detail.
APPROACH
At Studio Aimee Less we see interior design as both an art form and a lived experience.
We start by taking the time to understand the client, their needs and dreams. We synthesize these conversations, through research and concept development, into a direction that balances aesthetic possibilities with the demands of functionality, while also expressing the ethos of those who will live or work within the space.
Refined, warm, and tactile, our designs are grounded in a modernist sensibility but never bound to a singular style. Every project is a new composition – an expression of the site, influenced by the character of the client - where form, materials, and function interact, often surprisingly. Beyond interior architecture, we delight in selecting and designing furniture and curating carefully sourced art and accessories. This last layer of a project is like putting on a scarf, icing on the cake, playing a final chord, the grand finale that makes the place complete where nothing is incidental.
This attention to detail extends beyond aesthetics and into practical planning. Bringing our expert technical chops and interior artistry skills to bear we carefully craft precise specifications and create drawings and visualizations to ensure healthy communication and clear expectations with and for the client and larger design and build team. Collaboration is taken seriously. We prefer to join a project early, when the planning decisions are still being shaped and the possibilities are greatest. The result of these partnerships are projects that are extraordinary, joyful, and buildable.
