New York-based designers Lisa Jones and Ruby Kean are co-founders of Atelier LK.
Founded in 2021, the interdisciplinary studio spans the worlds of interior design and architecture, art curation, bespoke furniture design and creative direction.
Atelier LK launched its inaugural project No.43 at the former residence of artist Ron Hitchins. The studio curated an exhibition showcasing modernist furniture pieces alongside an eclectic selection of contemporary creatives as well as Hitchins’ art.
Jones began her career as a fashion buyer for Browns London. Her work in fashion led to her transition into consultancy, guiding brands such as Simon Miller as they diversified into lifestyle and home design. She went on to launch A Good Chair, a studio specialising in sourcing unique and rare pieces for private collectors and brands.
Kean’s journey in interior design began at Firmdale Hotels, where after three years she moved to New York to establish and lead the stateside design studio. In this role, she played a pivotal part in the design and installation of notable projects, including The Whitby Hotel in Midtown, the refurbishment of The Crosby Street Hotel in SoHo and various high-end residential and commercial ventures.
Atelier LK’s work has been featured in several international publications, including the FT’s How to Spend It, Milk Magazine, British Vogue and The Sunday Times Style Magazine.
