About me
Louise Lynn
One of Ireland’s brightest and most promising young designers, Louise is fast gaining a reputation for her thoughtful, considerate approach and attention to detail throughout all stages of the process. Her extensive knowledge of design theory is underpinned by a sense of flair and imagination that runs through every project.
I believe that great design can and should be exciting and uplifting while also comfortable and deeply reassuring. I love working with people who are passionate about the place they live, and who want to create a space as interesting and individual as they are.
Influences
My own personal design aesthetic is inspired by a fusion of contemporary and classic elements. I am informed and influenced by the work of Zaha Hadid, Philippe Starck, Santiago Calatrava and especially Eileen Grey, the acclaimed Irish architect and furniture designer of the Bauhaus era, whose courage and ingenuity was ahead of her time.
My journey
Louise Lynn comes from a family steeped in creativity. Growing up in beautiful Roscommon on the west of Ireland, her mother (an artist) and sister (a milliner) opened Louise’s eyes to the power and purity of great design, while a lifelong fascination with interior decorating helped to forge a career path.
Moving to Dublin, Louise completed a B.A. in Interior & Furniture Design at DIT, where she was influenced by the design philosophy of the Bauhaus movement with its emphasis on function, form, and simple aesthetics.
On graduation, Louise joined HKR, one of Ireland’s leading architectural firms based in Dublin. There, working as part of the busy Interiors team, she was involved in a range of commercial projects including banks, law firms, hotels, restaurants, and department stores. At HKR – learning from the best – she worked on everything from pitches and construction drawings to overseeing large commercial fit-outs.
