ABOUT/the founder
Lainy Hedaya
Lainy Hedaya leads Haute Inhabit with a visionary mind and a meticulous eye, approaching every project with an obsessive dedication to detail and a standard of design most never even consider. She believes that great brands and interiors are built in the subtleties; the lines no one else notices, the choices no one else questions, and the cohesion only someone with her level of precision can orchestrate. This creative rigor is the foundation of the studio’s work.
A multidisciplinary creative director and brand strategist, Lainy’s background spans fashion, interiors, retail strategy, digital storytelling, and product development. She earned her BBA in Visual Merchandising from LIM College and spent more than a decade collaborating with global brands including Chanel, H&M, Chopard, Fendi, and Jaguar, developing a deep understanding of visual impact, consumer psychology, and the interplay between space, identity, and culture.
After years of consulting for founders and companies across fashion, beauty, lifestyle, hospitality, and home, she launched Haute Inhabit Studio to bring branding and interior design under one practice. Her approach merges strategic clarity with timeless design principles, creating brand worlds and environments that feel intentional, elevated, connected, and culturally resonant.
Today, Lainy guides clients through identity development, spatial direction, and the creative decisions that define how a brand shows up; visually, emotionally, and experientially. Her signature lies in crafting holistic brands built with intelligence, storytelling, and an unwavering commitment to detail.
