Lea Architecture

Lea Architecture is a Brooklyn-based team of designers who believe in architecture as a tool for creating spatial and social confidence. Our award-winning, full-service design solutions are rooted in the needs of the people who use them and the places they exist in. From property to structure to materials, we see constraints as the greatest opportunity for imaginative design. We prioritize projects that broaden our practice, and reflect a shared interest in the expansiveness of architectural possibility. Our work is united not by a formal or stylistic approach, but by a process of listening and synthesizing. From a master plan to a single-family home, learning is our starting point for collaboration. Absorbing the needs of clients and site stakeholders allows us to understand the full scope of each architectural challenge, and resolve it in a way that expands expectations of what a space can be. Lea Architecture was founded by award-winning architect Jane Lea and is based in Brooklyn, New York. The studio’s expertise spans historic and landmarked buildings, residences, cultural and community spaces, institutions, and master plans. Across typologies and scales, we value partnerships with creative individuals and organizations who lead with empathy.
