Lenka Soares is a Brazilian Interior Designer, native of Rio de Janeiro.
Even though she has lived in New York City for more than three decades – a place she considers her hometown, – she remains close to her beloved Brazil.
After graduating in Fine Arts and studying Art History in San Diego, Lenka began her career in the Architecture program at the University of Santa Ursula. She decided to change her major to Interior Design, finishing her studies at F.I.T., in the heart of New York City.
With a passion for Egyptian history since a young age, Lenka decided to get yet another degree in Egyptology and is now finishing her studies at Manchester University in the UK.
With her love for Brazilian architecture and furniture design, Lenka joined the renowned Brazilian architecture firm "Studio Arthur Casas" team in NY, where she was proud to be the Studio Manager and Interior Design Coordinator. She collaborated for over five years in this studio on many important international projects while working closer to her country.
Lenka brings a sense of elegance and culture to her designs, mixing different styles and personalities into her unique projects.
Beyond her professional pursuits, Lenka's passion lies in travel – especially throughout Europe, the Middle East, and Africa – where she eagerly explores diverse inspirations for her designs.
In every authentic project and journey, Lenka Soares blends her love for cultural exploration with each client's personal visions, creating spaces that reflect a fusion of influences from all over the globe.
