About

01 About

La Maison (read "Home" in French) Otto seek to create balance in our lives, the space that is most significant is the one where we spend the most time: home.

 

Growing up in a family of real estate entrepreneurs, she realised that every house or apartment lacked that extra touch of soul, that inexplicable " coup de coeur" that we are looking for. Inspired by her travels, she decided to renovate her own apartment in Paris, married a multi business entrepreneur, and after graduating in Interior Design from City & Guilds in London and from the Designers Studio in Dubai, she changed her life when she moved to the UAE. She now offers a wide range of interior services.

 

As a mother, her designs marry functional but aesthetically pleasing interiors with timeless style to reflect her clients' personalities and lifestyles. As an investor's wife, she also has expertise in optimising spaces and rentability for her clients who seek to rent or flip their property. Laurene's French touch will bring novelty to your interior. 

She serves clients internationally through e-design services. Her expertise will save you time and make the process easy and stress-free for you.

E-Design is virtual interior design. We collaborate with you online through the use of video, client portal and phone. You’ll benefit from the expertise of our interior designer who will guide you through the process and create your dream home without having to meet in person.

Virtual interior design allows you a personalize service without the pressure of timelines. We offer different options that fit your needs & budget.

HOW IT WORKS?

Pick the online E-Design Service that best suits you.

2. Complete the client questionnaire

Simply fill out the Client Questionnaire here. This helps us gather some information on your design style preference, budget. We will contact you within 1-2 business days to schedule a 30-40 minute call to discuss your interior design goals. 

 

3. Provide measurements

Then we will ask you to send us measurements of your space using our convenient Measuring Guide Template as well as any furniture items, including accessories you would like to keep in the final design.

 

4. Take photos of the space

Send over between 3-4 photos to help get us a better understanding of the space. (ie: Windows & Walls; Fireplace Walls; Ceilings; flat, sloped, etc).

''It was our first time dealing with Laurene. She's very professional, came up with great suggestions, using our taste. She always gave us few options and was very flexible with changing some things along the way as per our requirements. She's very patient, actively listened to what we wanted and quickly delivered. Laurene was very flexible and adapted herself to our needs - even when we wanted to exchange items she took care of everything from A to Z. I have never seen such good taste, professionalism and quality in delivery and service! I will definitely request she does our future big house'' - Fatma A.
