Lara Del Chiaro is an Italian Architect and Artist born in Venice, where she studied art, first at art high school and later at the Accademia di Belle Arti, before turning to architecture and completing her studies at IUAV University of Venice. Throughout nearly 30 years of architectural practice, she has remained connected to her first passion, fine art, which has continued to shape her visual language and inform her exploration of space, memory, and identity.

She founded the multidisciplinary design studio Interior Lab in Dubai, where she has developed Projects across residential, commercial, and cultural fields. Having lived and worked between Europe and the Middle East for over 15 years, her architectural and artistic practice has been deeply influenced by this dialogue between cultures. Through painting, sculpture, and short movies, she creates imagined yet emotionally authentic characters inspired by fleeting encounters, exploring the universal emotions that connect people across cultures.

Today, her work moves between architecture and contemporary art, using both disciplines to explore the relationship between space, memory, identity, and human presence. Rather than offering answers, her work reflects on the complexity of contemporary identity—its fragility, contradictions, and continuous transformation. Arts becomes a space where personal experience and collective consciousness briefly meet, allowing the invisible dimensions of our time to take form.
