Alexa Nafisi-Movaghar brings nearly 15 years of industry experience to her present design practice as the founder of Adean Studios. Nafisi-Movaghar began her professional career at Otto Walker Architects in her hometown of Park City, Utah after studying architecture at the University of Utah. While pursuing Interior Design at the Academy of Art Institute in San Francisco, she furthered her knowledge at Studio Volpe but her focus on hotels and restaurants truly began when she joined the team at the award-winning AvroKO where she left her footprint on notable projects from New York and San Francisco to Mexico and Abu Dhabi. After relocating to New York, she joined Soho House where she focused on revitalizing existing Soho House locations and designing new Houses being launched in North America, including Soho House Austin and Soho House Nashville. In 2019, Nafisi-Movaghar founded Adean Studios in her West Village apartment. Since that time, she’s relocated to San Francisco while establishing a global clientele for the firm. Following its inception, Adean Studios has left its mark on many notable hospitality concepts including Flagstaff’s 200-room High Country Motor Lodge and Atlanta’s famed Barcelona-inspired tapas bar and restaurant Boqueria as well as a growing portfolio of Los Angeles-based concepts from one of the World's 50 Best Bars Mírate in the city’s Los Feliz neighborhood and its sister concept Daisy in Sherman Oaks to the Mediterranean-influenced Bacari in Beverly Hills and award-winning Cafe Goldie in the W Hollywood Hotel. Nafisi-Movaghar's work through Adean Studios has been published in such design publications as Dezeen, Hospitality Design and Wallpaper and in 2025 she was recognized as Interior Design's HiP Hospitality Rising Star of the Year. Every Adean Studios project is a bespoke design, crafted in collaboration with the client's vision, informed by experience and classical architectural training, and brought beautifully to life through thousands
