"My interiors are more curated than designed. As pieces are selected the interior unfolds to reflect the shared vision of me and my client. Inspiration is born from my experiences traveling, my love of collecting and my passion for art. I believe in the importance of life's simple joys: art, nature, music, books and in particular, the compelling interactions had with people and places."
Kirar's inspiration is based primarily in the late 19th and early 20th century design, as well as period fashion, architecture, music, fine art, philosophy and culture.
Named as one of "America's Top Designers",
by House Beautiful in September 2003,
Kirar has attracted the design industry's notice,
as seen in her recent press coverage.
Laura Kirar is devoted to the quiet beauty of forms from the Vienna's secessionists, Weiner Werkstatte, and the classicism of the city's Ringstrasse architecture. Laura is further inspired by the sculptural beauty of Japanese and Scandinavian design and its seamless execution of proportionate symmetry and scale.
