Co-founders Lauren Lozano Ziol and Michelle Jolas offer an exceptional level of service and project management skills. Lauren and Michelle believe it’s important to educate their clients on art, furniture history and interior design. They also hold a strong understanding of all elements of design, materials, style, and scale, resulting in nothing short of exquisite and sophisticated spaces. Their custom-made furniture and designs result in timeless, classic, and chic interiors, with an edge. The pair does not shy away from pushing boundaries.“We would easily combine a Louis XIV table with Milo Baughman chairs.” A staple of SKIN’s is revitalizing vintage finds and pairing iconic pieces in furniture history with eclectic wallpapers, rugs, and colors. The name SKIN incorporates layers; not only in their interiors, but in getting to know the client so that their personality is reflected throughout every curated detail. SKIN realizes that environments have never been more important and can truly have an impact on your mood and creativity. Many of SKIN’s projects are in leading publications across the world including Country & Town House Interiors and Elle Decoration. SKIN has been the finalist and recipient of many global design awards such as Design Et Al and SBID British Design Awards. SKIN has also been featured in Design Et Al’s Most Glamorous Homes of 2020. SKIN is currently launching a new office in London 2021.
