Suzie’s studies at Manhattan’s School of Visual Arts started her on a journey of painting and applied arts that culminated in her time at the firm of Terry Hunziker. She believes that interior design should be a pleasure to experience—and create. Youngest of six, and “glue” of the team, close collaboration and communication are her hallmarks, whether she’s overseeing team structure, creating material palettes or making style selections. She finds inspiration for future designs in nature, road trips and travels with her husband to visit the zen gardens and vinyl bars of Japan.

David authors the creative vision for the studio with an intuitive feel for big pictures and broad concepts. Architecture has been a lifelong passion—he began designing homes for family and friends when he was just 5 years old. (Most of this early work remains unbuilt.) After receiving his Architecture degree from Parsons School of Design, David worked extensively with famed designer Terry Hunziker. Today, he continues the heritage of high-end Pacific Northwest interiors in partnership with sisters, Suzie and Rachel, and with the assistance of his Puggle, Roger, the official office dog.

Leading business operations for Lucas, Rachel deftly handles the financial and logistical side of studio management. Nothing makes her happier than when her books are balanced to the penny. As a graduate and former adjunct professor at Parsons School of Design, her professional experience includes hands-on creative development, project management and sales in her native city, New York. Rachel’s a mom of two—Olivia and Rocco—and if you email her in August, she’ll likely be responding from the sunny hills of Basilicata, Italy, on her family’s annual visit to her husband’s childhood home.

Brian earned his Bachelors of Interior Design, magna cum laude, from Bellevue College, where he was awarded in the 2014 Architectural Foundation Model Exhibit. Brian’s creativity and divergence inspire us every day at the studio. He does the same for future designers as an instructor of bachelor-level courses at his alma mater. For Brian, visual inspiration is everything—whether he’s making 3D models and renderings for the team, or finding the perfect new additions to his personal collection of work from local and international up-and-coming artists.
