Lara Keischgens

As an interior designer (AKNRW) with an international Master's degree and an expert in brand experience at the Drees & Sommer office in Cologne, Lara Keischgens was particularly passionate about the office refurbishment. As an ‘emotional Rhinelander’, it was something special for her to be able to design her own working environment. The perpetual curiosity that characterised her training in Mainz and Paris, Stuttgart and Istanbul still drives her today. Lara is particularly fascinated by scenography and storytelling, which led her from a stage design internship at a theatre to her first job in scenography. The fast pace and ‘throwaway mentality’ of a previous trade fair project led to a strong desire to realise more sustainable projects with high quality and a long lifespan - and to switch to a traditional architecture firm. Today, Lara can combine all her interests at Drees & Sommer and design exciting projects as part of a team.
