About Us

The Lucas Miles Atelier founded by Kate Lucas Miles is me, living my best life.

I created a space on the beach in the beautiful bay of La Herradura on the Costa Tropical; A place to make and create my own tufting projects but also to share and help others learn to master this fun and rewarding craft.              

But it didn't stop there. I have a passion for seeking out things of beauty for the home; Renovating, up-cyclying, breathing new life into 'objects d'art' so they can once again be loved and appreciated. Soon I was joined by my good friend Susanne Carlsson. We enjoy nothing more than the process of discovery from a bygone era, sourcing items from many places around Europe with a particular influence from Scandinavia and Susanne's Swedish roots. Our curation follows one simple rule, if it doesn't bring us joy it doesn't make the cut! We hope you enjoy browsing our finds.

There's more...I have always been interested in design and textiles and was recently inspired by some beautiful fabrics from visits to the UK. I soon learned to hand-craft lampshades to further enhance the vintage lamps that Susanne and I had sourced. Striking pieces not only illuminate a room, they create interest, they are entirely portable and deliver an ambience to a space like nothing else.

Welcome to the Lucas Miles Atelier. My office is unashamedly the nicest space I've ever worked. I welcome those interested in learning to craft to this magical horseshoe bay I now call home.
