«Every project starts with a vision. My core objective is to imagine, design and hand over bespoke solutions for the residential market, entirely focused on improving the quality of life of my clients and their interior space». Laura Dragoi, Founder


Laura founded Art de Vivre Studio to address the needs of discerning and quality-conscious home owners who seek assistance with their primary residences, holiday homes or pieds-à-terre, as well as those of property developers for their turnkey projects or other real estate investments in the South of France.  

Having lived and worked in both London and France, has allowed her to build up excellent relationships within the industry and gain a thorough understanding of both regions. Today Laura is based in Beaulieu-sur-Mer, a picturesque seaside village on the French Riviera.

Cultivating the idea that beauty is not limited to a certain place but is rather a universal concept, Laura is constantly looking for inspiration around the world without excluding the local history and architecture from the design process.
She has a taste for creating spaces that are inviting and graceful, unveiling their beauty with subtlety, where function is harmonised with aesthetics, and luxury resonates with comfort.

Committed to every aspect of the design process from early conception to completion, Laura has a unique vision for each project she undertakes, carried out with close attention to detail for a seamless, bespoke result.

During the design process, Laura carefully listens to the client’s requirements to understand their personality, their tastes and their needs. It’s an opportunity to discover their vision for their home and collaborate closely, elements that are crucial in building an outstanding work relationship.

«I design interiors that are comfortable yet elegant, with a subtle coastal scent, where past meets with present and old becomes new. Thus, I love specifying materials with character - marbles for their intricate patterns, textural timbers and elegant weaves made of luxurious natural fibres. In addition, I curate distinctive and meaningful art and antiques that transcend the mere ornamental purpose».
