Lea Aviani (born 1977) is a designer based in Split, Croatia. She graduated in 2002 at the School of Design, an interdisciplinary programme at the Faculty of Architecture in Zagreb. Shortly after completing her studies, she returned to Split, where she began collaborating with local craftspeople and artisans.
She founded PROJECTUM as a collaborative platform bringing together industrial designers, architects, and civil engineers, focused on realizing projects that extend beyond the conventional boundaries of industrial design.
LAP (LEA AVIANI + PROJECTUM) operates at the intersection of research, professional practice, and artistic exploration in the fields of design and architecture.
Lea Aviani’s work is strongly influenced by the Mediterranean way of life, where tradition and innovation naturally intertwine. Her projects are characterized by strong expression and emotional depth, combining contemporary design approaches with a deep sense of place and local identity.
