ABOUT SUZI

Hi, I’m Suzi the founder
of STUDIO SOLEIL.

I’m so happy you are here! Below are some fun facts about me and my design work:

  • My first job was being the intern at British Vogue, where I developed a strong understanding of visual language, composition, and styling through an editorial lens.

  • I trained at the Inchbald School of Design in London, grounding my eye in spatial planning, proportion, and transformational design principles.

  • Spent over a decade owning and operating short-term rental properties that consistently outperformed their markets.

  • Worked in Los Angeles residential real estate, overseeing approximately $5M in annual rental volume across properties valued up to $30M.

  • Showing so many luxury homes sharpened my understanding of what people respond to immediately: light, flow, restraint, and clarity.

  • This experience also revealed how easily value is lost when design decisions fail to align with market realities.
