About Studio Gutow
Founded by Lisa Berman and Melissa Rohani, Studio Gutow is a Laguna Beach–based interior design firm defined by its quietly confident blend of modern restraint and historical resonance. Berman, whose roots trace to a family immersed in art and antiques, and Rohani, whose global perspective was shaped through years of sourcing and cultural study, share a sensibility that is at once refined, layered, and deeply personal.
Their work unfolds as a dialogue between architecture, art, and object—spaces composed with a collector’s eye and an editor’s restraint. Over the past decade, the duo has collaborated with leading architects and builders to craft residences that feel grounded yet transcendent, inviting both comfort and contemplation. The recently opened Studio Gutow Gallery extends this philosophy, creating a tactile environment for creative exchange and the discovery of rare, storied pieces from around the world.
