With over 45 years of experience in the design industry, Dorlise O’Hara launched A&D Curated Studio in 2022.

Dorlise originally began her career in fashion and food styling working for several magazines based in New York City. After becoming a mother, she made a career transition and worked in showrooms at the New York Design Center. In 2001, Dorlise relocated to Washington, DC, where she worked alongside an architect and gained experience in custom contract furniture. In 2013, she moved to Delray Beach and transitioned back into residential home furnishings, where she found her true love for textiles.

“Our mission is to provide designers with luxury service and exclusive access to product for all their needs. Meeting with local artisans, seeing where the materials come from and getting to know the people, builds our foundation of passion and love for design. We feel the lines we have chosen to represent mirror the level of designers we partner with.”

With the experience of being on the other side of the business for many years, she knows what their clients are looking for.
