    Designer of the Day: Lesleigh Jermanus of Alémais

    Lesleigh Jermanus launched the Australian label Alémais in 2020 with her husband and co-founder, Chris Buchanan, after holding senior design roles at Zimmermann and Marcs. Art sits at the center of everything she creates: an avid collector of contemporary art herself, Jermanus treats design through the same lens as collecting, drawn to color, storytelling, and craftsmanship. Each season, Alémais partners with a different artist, turning garments into collectible works in their own right, a thread of the brand's identity that traces back to years Jermanus spent working alongside artisans and makers in Vietnam and Kenya before founding the label. She was named Designer of the Year at the 2024 Australian Fashion Laureate Awards.

    In 2020, Noa Santos founded the international interdisciplinary architecture, interior design, and landscape studio NAINOA, which he currently helms as CEO and principal designer. Santos derives all design decisions from a perspective bridging observations of the environment with a desire to elevate a client’s lived experience. From the exquisite, art-filled environs of an Aspen guest house to the marriage of home and hospitality in a Costa Rican hotel, Santos and his team orchestrate every touch, from the intimacy of a guest room to the embrace of its surrounding landscape.
