WHAT WE DO

Studio Cottray approaches design through a storytelling lens, where we aim to transform spaces from existing to living. Through the use of richly layered textures and colour, we place a strong emphasis on subtle bespoke design paired with a carefully curated collection of sourced objects, furniture and art. 

With warm undertones and a preference for the use of textured materials, SC’s seeks to create spaces that offer both a sense of belonging and comfort with an unexpected edge. Each project has its own story to tell and we are there to start the conversation.

Studio Cottray works across various sectors, including residential, developments, hotels, restaurants, and styling. Our extensive knowledge and relationships with artisans, craftsmen, and makers enable us to create personalised and one-of-a-kind pieces for each project. We are constantly exploring new avenues and are open to collaborations.

WHO WE ARE

Lena has grown a reputation for successfully delivering projects of varying shapes and sizes across Europe, Asia and the Middle East. From high-end private residential properties to notable luxury hotels in London and the South of France, Lena has a wealth of experience and knowledge that can bring your vision to life. 

Lena has a holistic and unique world-view developed through her nomadic upbringing around Asia, the Middle East and Europe and is evident in her richly layered designs. Spaces that evoke a sense of emotion and character have always intrigued Lena and have become a key element in her designs. As part of her work, Lena constantly seeks out rare and beautiful objects for her projects. Even more than the hunt for these objects, she loves to bring all the elements of a project together so that each space is as individual as the person that inhabits it.
