Valerie Lavine’s work captures each client’s distinctive taste while incorporating her trademark balance of timeless elegance and comfort. Her signature style reveals a global perspective influenced by her North African roots, French heritage as well as her cosmopolitan professional experience in New York. Her take on design transcends language, culture, trends and fashion. She draws her inspiration from architecture to music to fashion and conceives creative ideas by composing with form, color, patterns, texture, light and scale. Before launching her own firm Valerie worked under sought-after New York interior designers Peter Marino, Michael Graves, Frank de Biasi, Kyle Wells and Penny Drue Baird. These diverse experiences have widened her knowledge for sources not only in the US but also in Europe and sharpened her skills for architectural detailing.
