Lesley Braxton

Lesley believes design should start by investing time in people and their communities to develop a dialogue, shared vocabulary, and trust. She is driven by collaboration, curiosity, and the unexpected; challenges empower her, opportunities for co-creating inspire her.

Bringing a poetic approach to her work, Lesley conceives each project as part of a unique ecosystem. She uses the tools of artistic expression, technical innovation, and the mindful selection of materials—in her search for design excellence that is impactful, sustainable, and aesthetically sublime. This process enables her to shape our communal environments in new and meaningful ways.

Lesley believes design should start by investing time in people and their communities to develop a dialogue of understanding and truth-sharing. When we start by sitting at the same table, we can arrive at programming and architecture rooted in justice, empathy, and our shared humanity.
