In a world where luxury interior design constantly reinvents itself, L’ESTRO Italian Luxury Design has emerged as a distinctive voice: bold, refined and unmistakably Italian
At the helm of luxury design firm L’ESTRO stands Debora Lagana, a force of creativity and strategy who, as General Manager of the firm, embodies a rare combination of visionary designer and accomplished creative director. Born in Reggio Calabria, Italy, Lagana holds a degree in Architecture and two Masters’ specialisations in Interior Design, bringing a European sensibility that defines L’ESTRO’s creative vision.
“Luxury,” Lagana notes, “is where beauty meets the soul, transforming a place into a memory and a moment into an emotion that stays.” Today, L’ESTRO, represents this philosophy with its highest expression. The firm has rapidly become a signature name in exclusive hospitality, private villas, boutique hotels and yacht interiors, with each project bringing a crafted narrative that bridges culture, comfort and contemporary elegance.

Based in Dubai, L’ESTRO, proudly operates within the powerful business ecosystem of the International Free Zone Authority (IFZA), one of the UAE’s most dynamic hubs for global entrepreneurship. With the visionary guidance of Chairman Martin Pedersen, L’ESTRO is positioned not only as an interior design firm, but as a luxury brand with international foundations, strategic partnerships and world-class business intelligence behind its creativity.
A defining milestone in L’ESTRO’s journey is the recognition received at the identity Design Awards for ‘Penthouse 309’ at the Kempinski the Palm. With its panoramic views, bespoke detailing and high art sophistication, the project stands as a testament to L’ESTRO’s creative boldness. This achievement reflects not only Lagana’s vision, but also the extraordinary talent of the firm’s team. A highly skilled group of architects, interior designers and technical specialists form the backbone of L’ESTRO a collective of passion, innovation and craft. Their synergy and dedication transform ideas into iconic realities, project after project.
At L’ESTRO, bespoke craftsmanship is considered a signature brandish, as opposed to a philosophy. Every material becomes a storyteller: marble is sculpted into timeless art, lighting is choreographed to shape mood, and intimacy and tactile fabrics are curated to evoke emotion at every touchpoint. Rooted in heritage and elevated by innovation, the firms prides itself on its projects that honour the culture of a place while shaping its future. At the same time, L’ESTRO enjoys fusing history with contemporary elegance, ensuring that every interior design holds the memory of where it comes from and the promise of where it’s going. Every detail is designed to elevate life, transforming space into a feeling, and the touches of hospitality into a lasting memory.
At L’ESTRO, interior design begins with space and ends with emotion. Bespoke furniture, layered textures and artistic wallcoverings are composed with precision to create immersive interiors. Spaces become stories, identity is expressed through beauty, and luxury is felt in every detail.
