Contemporary & holistic architecture, earth construction

At LM Architectures, every project begins with people.

Beyond the site and architectural program, we study the individuals who will inhabit the space. Through Feng Shui analysis, Ba Zi charts and Kua numbers, we gain a deeper understanding of each person's beneficial directions and unique energy profile.

This allows us to carefully position key spaces — bedrooms, offices, entrances and living areas — to support well-being, relationships, creativity and personal growth.

Rather than applying Feng Shui as a decorative layer, we integrate it from the earliest stages of the design process, creating homes that are both beautiful and deeply aligned with those who live in them.

Working between Senegal, Paris and London, LM Architectures creates bespoke residential, hospitality and landscape projects that respond to both people and place.

Building with earth

Earth is one of the oldest and most sustainable building materials in the world.

At LM Architectures, we embrace earth construction for its natural beauty, exceptional thermal comfort and low environmental impact. By combining traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design, we create spaces that remain cool, comfortable and connected to their environment.

Building with local materials allows us to celebrate regional know-how while creating architecture that feels authentic, responsible and timeless.

Although earth architecture holds a special place in our work, we believe every project deserves its own architectural language, shaped by its context, its purpose and the people who inhabit it.

Architect & Feng Shui Consultant

Leïla graduated from École Camondo in Paris in 2009, where she explored the integration of nature into architecture. She later continued her studies at the Architectural Association School of London, focusing on vernacular architecture, parametric design and ecosystems.

After discovering the art of Feng Shui in Senegal and its ability to align architecture with both nature and its inhabitants, her work took a new direction.

Today, she combines contemporary architecture, earth construction and Feng Shui principles to design bespoke projects tailored to the unique profile of their occupants, creating spaces that support well-being, harmony and opportunities.

Leïla is also the founder of Let's Build My School, an initiative dedicated to building sustainable schools in Senegal using local materials and earth construction techniques.

We believe architecture should do more than shelter. It should support the people who inhabit it, respond to its environment and create a lasting connection between nature and everyday life.

Projects

Every project begins with a unique story : from family homes and earth-built retreats to landscape-driven architecture, our work explores the relationship between people, nature and energy. Each project is shaped by its environment, its purpose and the individuals who will inhabit it.

Guided by architectural principles, local materials and Feng Shui principles, we create spaces that are both functional and deeply personal.
