About Us

At 22 Interiors, we strive for function, flow and beauty in every room, using a design and management process born from years of experience.  We create spaces that feel good, look good, and ultimately make a positive difference to our client's lives. As a result, many of our clients return to us again and again — relationships built on trust, care, and beautiful results.

22 Interiors is a full-service, award-winning interior design agency with residential and commercial projects throughout the United States. We thrive on deciphering a client's idea of the perfect home or commercial environment, translating it into it in a spatial and visual plan, and bringing it to life with an organized installation. We have vetted all of our sources, suppliers, manufacturers, and artisans to ensure the process is seamless - and actually fun!

 

On the residential side, most of 22 Interiors' clients are busy professionals, some of whom have never used an interior designer before, but all of whom want a finished, beautiful home, and know they need help achieving that. Our commercial clients range from a well-known fitness chain to law firms and hedge funds on both coasts.

​

22 Interiors has over 240 completed residential and commercial projects under its belt from Los Angeles to San Francisco, Washington D.C., Manhattan, and The Hamptons.​  Our work has been featured in local and national publications and blogs including Luxe Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Elle Decor, House Beautiful, Homes & Gardens, The Los Angeles Times, Rue Magazine, and Modern Sanctuary.

 

22 Interiors' awards include the 2018 HGTV Best Kitchen Award and Houzz's Best of Design and Best Service, a distinction earned for multiple years running since 2015.

About Lucie Ayres

Founder, Principal Designer

22Interiors_027.jpg

Lucie’s style is a hybrid of soulful European meets playful Californian - comfortable, curated, and inspired. Her Cornell degree and world travels influence her entire design process. She is driven daily by her passion for design, color, and creating layouts that transform the way her clients live, work and feel. Opinionated and hard-working, Lucie lives for the installation - when all the pieces fall into place - and the end-result of happy rooms and happy clients.

​

Currently based in Los Angeles and New York, Lucie was born in Prague, then a part of Czechoslovakia, and moved to the U.S. when she was five.

 

The daughter of a carpenter, Lucie's passion for design started when she was very young. She helped design the pieces that her father would build, and would constantly rearrange the furniture in her and her friends’ rooms. She went on to study Design and Environmental Analysis at Cornell University, after which she traveled throughout Europe and Africa before settling in Manhattan and working for the commercial real estate services company Cushman & Wakefield. Lucie later moved into website/product development and entertainment marketing - at memBrane, then United Entertainment Group - before founding her own design company in 2009.

​

She lives with her husband, Chris, their two kids, Milo and Mae, and two cats, Loki and Ozzy. She proudly serves on the board of Cornell University's Human Ecology College, and sponsors home installations for the Los Angeles non-profit, A Sense of Home.
