About Linette
Linette Dai is the founder and principal of Linette Dai Design, a studio celebrated for its emotionally resonant spaces that pair quiet luxury with grounded livability. With a background in art history and a deep reverence for craftsmanship, Linette approaches each commission as a dialogue between nostalgia and novelty—merging soulful storytelling with refined materiality.
Born in Japan and of Taiwanese-American heritage, Linette brings a layered global perspective to the environments she shapes. Her extensive travels and cross-cultural roots inform a design language that feels transportive and is richly attuned to the human experience. Her work is defined by sensory intelligence: nuanced restraint, bespoke detailing, and a meticulous attention to how space can elevate daily life.
Drawing from nature, memory, and the evocative textures of travel and ritual, Linette and her team create interiors that are both profoundly personal and subtly unexpected. She partners with discerning clients and collaborators who seek thoughtful creative direction with artistry at its core.
Linette serves on the Los Angeles chapter of the Asian American Pacific Islander Design Alliance (AAPIDA), supporting representation and engagement within the design community.
