ASHE LEANDRO

Known for their classic contemporary look, the AD100 interior design/architectural firm Ashe Leandro’s debut publication is an inspiring look book of interiors they have created in syncopation with materials that they are drawn to.

For Ashe and Leandro, creativity is a way of life that is reflected in everything they design. They have built a star-studded portfolio (clients include Liev Schreiber, Seth Meyers, Naomi Watts, and Rashid Johnson) with their fresh approach to unfussy, high-design spaces. Their interiors favor a quiet beauty, based on simple shapes, asymmetrical details, and a fine patina.

This luxurious book, with its cloth-covered case, features the firm’s exciting new design projects, exhibiting their fusion of America’s Southwest, Latin American, and European heritages. There are also profiles of homes in urban and country settings, from New York City, Connecticut, and East Hampton to Martha’s Vineyard, illustrating this appealing cosmopolitan/bohemian aesthetic. Through an insightful interview, the designers share their process using interiors and their furnishings to demonstrate the personal ethos of their extraordinary firm and its important contributions to the design world.

Founded in 2008, the New York–based firm Ashe Leandro works globally on residential and commercial projects. Reinaldo Leandro is an architect; Ariel Ashe is the interior designer. Their work has been published in Architectural Digest and Elle Decor, among other design publications. Felix Burrichter is the publisher of Pin-Up magazine. Seth Meyers is a comedian and writer, who hosts NBC’s Last Night with Seth Meyers. Rashid Johnson is an influential multidisciplinary, American artist.
