Laura Burns-Lambert: Sensory designer

We're delighted to introduce you to Laura Burns-Lambert, a sensory design expert who specializes in interior plant and floral design in the San Francisco and Bay Area. Laura’s specialties are Interior Landscapes, Holiday Designs, and Brand Enhancement.

Laura Burns-Lambert considers the entire world her canvas. “I am attracted to any form of physical media I can use to get my point across visually including painting, woodwork, metalwork and sculpting,” says Laura who finds our environment, whether it is indoors or outdoors, to be an excellent medium for art. “The structures and colors that are created naturally in the forest and countryside inspire me.”

Laura’s horticultural, artistic and entrepreneurial talents were well served when she joined the Plant Design team at Ambius in 1996. During Laura’s tenure at Ambius, her work has garnered many industry awards including Plantscape Industry Alliance awards for outstanding retail and mall design work. Laura has also been recognized by her peers securing recognition for outstanding performance and leadership.

Clients are drawn to Laura’s inventive, open-minded approach to developing innovative workplace designs. She utilizes her natural creativity to find solutions that differentiate her clients from the rest of the pack. She specializes in telling the story of a brand through art. During her off-hours, Laura focuses on working with precious metals to create interesting sculptural pieces which have been displayed and sold at art shows in the Bay area. This metal artistry has come in handy at Ambius as Laura has created custom chandeliers from copper for custom holiday installations.

Whether Laura is finding new ways to stage plant material with interesting top-dressing and decorative accents, building terrariums or getting festive with holiday décor, her innovative, modern, inspired one-of-a-kind designs never fail to impress.  Check out some of her award-winning projects below!
