Larissa is an architect and interior designer based in Milan, where she currently holds a leadership role within a renowned Milanese interior design studio. Her experience spans bespoke interiors, turnkey projects and architectural design, shaped by years of working within Milan’s influential design scene and a close immersion in Italian design culture.
Born and raised in Brazil, Larissa studied Architecture and Urbanism, graduating with distinction before co-founding an architecture studio with two colleagues. With a longstanding desire to live abroad, she eventually left behind the path she had begun to build in Brazil and moved to Milan, where she first studied Interior Design at Istituto Marangoni before returning permanently to pursue a Master’s degree at NABA.
Her background is informed by two distinct yet complementary design cultures: the Brazilian modernism that shaped her early years and the Italian design heritage she encountered in Milan. Her approach is rooted in a longstanding interest in the relationship between architecture, history and society, alongside a pragmatic attitude towards design and a poetic, narrative-driven sensibility.
