About Us
A design studio founded by two black men reimagining the landscape of modern luxury interiors. Rooted in elegance and soulful, intentional design, we craft deeply personal spaces made for how you live.
Meet Melison St. Claire
Raised in New York City with roots in the Caribbean, Melison draws inspiration from both the vibrant individuality of city life and the warmth of island heritage. With over a decade of experience in high-end staging and a career that began in fashion and window styling, Melison is known for his discerning eye, layered approach, and instinct for what feels timeless.
As a Design Manager, he's led countless fast-paced luxury staging projects, managing teams and executing full interiors in under a week. Experience that brings precision, polish, and a deep understanding of what makes a home feel not only beautiful but alive.
Melison launched this studio to offer his unique design lens to a broader clientele. A desire to design spaces that tell stories, evoke emotion, and elevate everyday living.
Meet Steven Mesan
At just 19, Steven moved to New York after studying business and real estate. And ready to chase opportunity. What he found instead was purpose. Meeting Melison changed everything. Through him, Steven was introduced to the world of interior design, and something clicked: a love for detail, beauty, and the pursuit of perfection.
More than a creative partner, Melison became a mentor, opening Steven's eyes to a new way of seeing space and possibility. That moment shaped not only Steven's career, but the person he's become: someone who leads with clarity, curiosity, and a deep respect for craft.
Together, they formed St. Claire et La Pierre, a studio rooted in trust, intention, and design that endures.
Our Philosophy: Soulful Luxury
To us, luxury is more than finishes, it's a feeling. It's the heartbeat of peace when you enter a room designed with care. We believe in crafting homes that are deeply personal, elevated yet livable, and made to stand the test of time.
Our clients feel seen, heard, and held throughout the process. and when they walk into their space for the first time, they feel at home. A home that's uniquely theirs.
