We profile the founder of Home Figures Company – Lea Chatila
As the visionary owner of Home Figures Company, Lea Chatila’s passion for design has been ingrained in her identity since childhood.
Growing up, Lea Chatila was drawn to the concept of homes as a canvas for self-expression, with furniture serving as a reflection of one’s personality and tastes.
However, working in the interior design field for more than 15 years and living in Dubai, Lea recognized that mass-produced, one-size-fits-all furniture often left people wanting more.
Dubai’s diverse and dynamic population presented a unique opportunity to cater to individuals seeking bespoke solutions. Lea realized that customization was the key to not just providing functional pieces but that furniture should tell a story, and that story should be uniquely yours. At Home Figures, customisation is not just an add-on; it’s a fundamental principle.
It is about providing a comprehensive experience. From the initial consultation and design discussions to the crafting and delivery of each piece. She ensured her clients were part of the creative process, allowing them to infuse their unique personality into every curve, fabric, and finish.
