LEAEVA is the creative studio of Lea Thompson, a French-Australian architect, interior designer, and artist.
INTERIOR ARCHITECTURE
With over a decade of experience across commercial and residential projects, Lea brings a refined yet unexpected approach to spatial design. Her work is grounded in the use of natural materials, a passion for clean, streamlined forms, and a dedication to creating effortless flow within each space. Lea often incorporates elements of surprise to spark emotional connection and curiosity, blending vintage finds with considered luxe pieces for a layered, personal, and accessible aesthetic. Her work blends structure with softness, creating spaces and artworks that evoke a sense of calm, connection, and beauty. Drawing from both Australian and French landscapes, her interiors often feel like living canvases: natural, tactile, and rooted in emotion. Each project is approached with an architectural lens and a poetic eye, balancing form, function, and feeling.
ART
As an artist, Lea explores abstraction, using oil sticks and acrylics to capture fleeting moments in nature, blurry views from car windows, wildflower fields, shifting horizons. Her paintings echo the same philosophy as her interiors: grounded in nature, guided by intuition. Her work has been exhibited, collected by private clients internationally and featured across residential, commercial, and creative spaces. Whether styling a home or painting a canvas, the thread that runs through it all is a love of atmosphere, story, and soul.
Currently based in Melbourne, Lea Thompson works on projects across Australia and composes artworks.
