Lara Jacquot is an interior designer based in Atlanta, working with clients in the Atlanta metro area, across the united states, and beyond.
Lara grew up in Kentucky and North Carolina with a father who designed and built houses, after studying architecture at Georgia Tech, and an artistic mother who painted as a hobby. Lara got her start walking through her dad’s projects under construction – learning to discern fine building techniques and the importance of a good floor plan and proper proportion.
Lara earned her bachelor’s degree in Studio Art from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and later a BFA in Interior Design from the American Intercontinental University. She was mentored early in her career by Atlanta design icons Nancy Braithwaite, Charles Gandy, and Bill Peace, as well as Minta Bell in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. She credits her keen eye for color, editing skills, and her ability to create a space unique to the individual client to those mentors. She now lives in Atlanta with her husband of 26 years, three teenage sons, and affable golden doodle.
