For Sydney-based interior designer Linda Habak, the work has always been about two things: listening and craft. Studio LHD’s philosophy is built on understanding who a client is, how they live, and how a home can quietly reflect a life well lived. Every project is shaped by narrative—family, travel, collected objects—and brought to life with Linda’s sharp eye for detail and deep respect for architecture, whether new or heritage.
But behind the effortless calm of a Studio LHD project lies an extremely rigorous process. And it’s here—inside the day-to-day management of specifications, client expectations, and hundreds of decisions—that Programa has become embedded in the practice.
“We walk every client through the journey with confidence. Programa helps us do that.”
Linda HabakFounder & Director
Linda’s background in marketing and advertising taught her the importance of composition, clarity, and communication. Her interior design practice extends that thinking: the experience of working with Studio LHD should feel organised, transparent, and guided.
“Our clients value clarity. Programa lets us give them clarity every step of the way.”

For Linda, great design isn’t just the final look—it’s how you get there. It’s documentation that doesn’t break, communication that doesn’t slip, and a process that builds confidence rather than anxiety.
Programa supports the entire Studio LHD philosophy: thoughtful, collaborative, detail-driven design that feels personal and deeply considered.
Studio LHD follows the same structure for every new project:
Every new project begins with time spent understanding the client—how they live, what they value, what they want from their home. After defining scope and budget, Linda creates the foundation for the project direction.Programa tools used: Early moodboards, initial schedules for fixture requirements, shared dashboard setup.
This is where the heavy lifting happens. Spatial planning, selections, joinery documentation, fittings and fixtures, furniture sourcing, 2D and 3D design. Programa tools used: Full schedules for joinery, lighting, plumbing, furniture; Web Clipper for rapid sourcing; Financial tab for budget clarity.
Construction begins. Linda supports both builder and client, coordinates deliveries, manages changes, and prepares the home for handover.Programa tools used: Live schedule updates, client approvals, procurement and progress tracking, shared links to ensure trades always have the latest information.
Across her projects, Linda uses Programa to keep the entire design and delivery process visible, structured, and client-ready:
The result? A design process that mirrors her ethos: grounded, confident, transparent—and centred on the client.
