Who is She?
Hello—My name is Leslie Kounthapanya.
I'm an architect by training turned interiors expert and interdisciplinary, digital creative.
I'm currently available for consultation.

I'm based in New York City, but I'm always traveling for my clients.
Place does not limit our connection—
the studio is digital in every sense!
Let's work together.
Curious to know more?
Leslie established LK Design Studio in April 2020 during the height of the pandemic.
For 5 years, the studio has expanded its reach digitally allowing her best skills as an analytical, creative problem-solver to be accessible to clients from various locations.
Leslie brings over 9 years of professional architectural experience working with some of the industry's greatest minds in New York City with project types ranging from residential to boutique retail to hospitality.
With a wide range of skill sets, Leslie combines her expertise in architecture, interior and digital design to create immersive experiences. Ultimately, her work often reflects meaningful connections fostered through a collaborative process with her clients.
Raised with small beginnings, Leslie hails from southern roots in Nashville, TN and is a graduate of Auburn University with a Bachelor of Architecture and thesis at the Rural Studio.
Today, she designs and consults for individual clients as well as design firms coast-to-coast, helping them bring their visions to life.
When she is not designing, she enjoys traveling, cooking, ballet, digital animation, empowering her community of strong women, and experiencing various neighborhoods in the city!
Sincerely,
Leslie
