We are Lucy (the Architect) and Lucinda (the Visual Designer).
We met whilst studying Interior Architecture some 15 years ago. And although our careers diverged across continents into Architecture and Visual Design, we continued to share a love of design which is made for-and-with people—in an atmosphere of respect, authenticity and inclusivity.
As Studio Lu & Lu we combine the skills gained from our respective crafts, and the different environments we’ve worked in, across London and Sydney. This applies to our processes as much as our output. We’ve steeped our processes in empathy, working in an inclusive way. We initiate projects that align with our values, giving us the opportunity to connect with both communities and individuals.
“With the intent of nurturing the vulnerability of sharing ideas, we’re creating a space for creativity to thrive—with the understanding that when we clock in to work, we are impacted by everything that happens outside of it.”

“In our practice we’re experimenting with a ‘rising tide lifts all ships mentality’. We’re assembling teams of professionals that lend their specialist knowledge. Our model of working respects the creative autonomy of our collaborators, investing in their interests and their growth, whilst building in space for them to move beyond.”
