Founded by Micah Wells, L’Atelier began with awe. His first spark of inspiration came as a boy, sitting beside his father, captivated by a conversation about the curves of a Lamborghini. It wasn’t just the car—it was the realization that someone had designed it. From that moment on, design became a lens: a way of seeing the world as something that could be shaped, refined, and made meaningful. He studied mechanical engineering and environmental science, drawn to the harmony of systems. But it wasn’t until he redesigned a mobility aid for his mother—who lives with multiple sclerosis—that design became more than aesthetic. It became intimate. It became care.

Micah later trained at MIT, earning executive credentials in design thinking and leadership by design, and studied storytelling through IDEO. His career began in HR, then marketing, where he embedded UX principles into company culture and systems. But it was human-centered design that fully aligned his background with his calling. Today, through L’Atelier, Micah blends structure and empathy—crafting digital and physical experiences that reflect care, elevate beauty, and last. Every project begins with a simple question: what would love design here?
