Interesting facts about Lauren Rottet
Before she was a design-world darling, Lauren Rottet’s early dreams of success were to be driven to work in a limousine. As it happened, she was just a few years out of college and working as an architect in Chicago when she learned that her landlord worked in the same building that she did and rode in every morning in a limo. Rottet convinced him to let her ride along each day. “I couldn’t afford to eat, but there I was, riding to work in a limo,” said Rottet with a laugh.
Lauren Rottet is a certified architect and designer who possesses a rare energy. She remembers only one time in her childhood complaining of boredom to her mother. Her mother’s response: “How can you be bored when there’s everything in the world to do, go out in the yard and dig a hole?” It was all it took to for Rottet to realize that there was always something to keep her occupied.
Since then, Rottet has been on a blazing course to success. She has received the Designer of the Year award, has become the first woman to ever be both a fellow of the American Institute of Architecture (FAIA) and a fellow of the International Interior Design Association (FIIDA), and she owns the international architecture and design firmRottet Studio.
Rottet Studio has offices in New York, Houston, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Shanghai. They are best known for their corporate office design, but they are making a name for themselves designing hotels.
