Subscribe now at patreon.com/theinteriorcollective Welcome back to The Interior Collective. I’m your host, Anastasia Casey, and today’s guests are two women whose work I’ve admired for years. I’m joined by Lucia Bartholomew and Cayley Lambur, the co-founders and design principals of Electric Bowery. Based in Venice, California, Electric Bowery is a design studio that has carved out a distinct niche at the intersection of residential and hospitality design. With a philosophy rooted in wellness, inclusivity, and creating spaces for “a life well-lived,” their work is as soulful as it is striking. What began with residential development projects has grown into a portfolio of hospitality destinations that celebrate landscape, site specificity, and collaboration at every level. Lucia and Cayley’s story is also one of partnership—meeting at Gehry Partners, building a shared vision, and founding a female-led studio that thrives on openness and innovation. In this conversation, we’ll explore what it means to run a business together as women in a male-dominated industry, how they’ve grown their firm, and how their signature Electric Bowery aesthetic translates seamlessly between private homes and public spaces. If you’ve ever been curious about partnership, hospitality, or the design philosophies shaping today’s most inspiring spaces, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
