THE STUDIO
Design Studio with Global Reach
Lucinda Loya Interiors is a founder-led design studio with a practice shaped around thoughtful authorship, high standards, and a clear understanding of how people want to live, gather, and experience space. The LLI approaches each project with equal attention to atmosphere and structure, ensuring the finished interior feels coherent rather than assembled, distinctive rather than generic.
Based in Houston, the firm works across both residential and commercial interiors, with projects ranging from custom homes and full-home transformations to hospitality settings and other spaces where visual identity and experience matter. The emphasis is always on interiors that feel intentional from the outset and resolved in the final detail.

A DISTINCT POINT OF VIEW
At Lucinda Loya Interiors, design begins with the belief that a space should do more than look beautiful. It should feel specific to the people who use it, responsive to its architecture, and confident in its own identity. That means paying close attention to what gives a project presence: the balance of line and material, the relationship between restraint and expression, and the subtle decisions that allow a room to feel complete.
The LLI’s interiors are often recognized for their visual strength and bold point of view, but what gives them staying power is the thinking beneath them. Art, architecture, custom furnishings, bespoke detailing, and livability are all treated as part of the same conversation. The aim is never to impose a signature for its own sake, but to create couture-level interiors with authorship, warmth, and lasting singularity.
EMILIA FALAZZARI, CLIENT“ When I look at people who are successful, they are talented, care deeply, are passionate about what they do, and have an unbelievable work ethic. Lucinda has all of those in spades. I can’t imagine doing a design project without her.”
THE WORK
Creating Couture Interiors that Command Attention

CUSTOM HOMES & PRIVATE RESIDENCES

APARTMENTS & PENTHOUSES
In apartments, penthouses, and pied-à-terre projects, LLI approaches spatial challenges with precision and imagination, shaping interiors that feel sophisticated, comfortable, and specific to the setting. The emphasis is always on clarity, proportion, and a sense of completeness that makes even smaller-footprint homes feel expansive and intentional.
HOSPITALITY & COMMERCIAL INTERIORS
The firm’s commercial work includes hospitality spaces, branded environments, workplace settings, and other guest-facing interiors where atmosphere and performance must work together. Here, design is treated not only as a visual exercise but as a way to support experience, identity, and the broader life of the space.
