Barbie star Margot Robbie's LuckyChap office gets a very glam makeover

Barbie star and producer Margot Robbie has just unveiled the stylish renovation of her LuckyChap office in Los Angeles.
Along with her LuckyChap co-founders, Tom Ackerley (her husband) and Josey McNamara, the star worked with London-based architectural designer Scarlett Hessian to reimagine the former fish market.
Despite not considering herself an "office person", in an interview with Architectural Digest Robbie said she has found herself utilising the new space more than she thought she would.

Responsible for critically acclaimed hits such as I, Tonya, Promising Young Woman, Barbie and new Netflix series Sirens, the production company's first office was the kitchen bench of a London apartment.
A decade later and the trio were ready to plan a space that was truly their own. With an "aversion to conference rooms" and wanting it to "feel like a creative space, not a resume", the co-founders enlisted their friend and collaborator Hessian to create their dream office.

"When they first showed me the building, I was a bit horrified, to be honest," the architectural designer told AD.
However, once she stepped past the unassuming exterior, Hessian was impressed by the "quietly cinematic" interiors, especially the high ceilings and airy mezzanine.
"We decided to lean into its midcentury style and bring in a mix of European pieces to give it personality," she said.

The result is a chic, light-filled office with bold, vibrant artworks punctuating the space.
The office opens into a warm, mid-century style waiting area, a room that Robbie said was previously "pretty stark" and "industrial feeling."
"We needed a place when people were coming in for meetings where they could wait and feel comfortable," Robbie said in an office tour video with AD.

With double-height ceilings, statement pendant lights, and a centrepiece mint green sofa, Hessian said the room feels very 1950s to her.
"It's not an uncomfortable waiting room, you're not too close to anybody," Hessian said. "The tones throughout the space are all comfortable and soft."
Hessian and Robbie made the decision to keep an exposed rock wall to lean into the mid-century vibe: "It's still fun, but elevated and sophisticated at the same time," Robbie said.

While there may not be much Barbie pink around, mementos from the film are utilised in surprising ways throughout the space, including the reupholstered chairs from the Mattel office scene with Will Ferrell and a blush-pink conference table.
Another stunning room is the oak panelled kitchen featuring a palette of warm, neutral tones and stone bench tops.
When it came to Robbie's office, Hessian said she specifically designed multiple work areas including a spacious desk and laptop table that slides out onto a plush sofa as the star is "not a sitting type".
Instead, Robbie told AD she typically preferred to work outside: "I'm not very good at being inside. So if I'm reading scripts, having lunch, or having meetings, I go out onto the terrace."
The sun-filled terrace features pops of deep green and bright red and includes a marble table, sofa set, and an assortment of trees and flowers.
The renovation comes after Robbie and Ackerley welcomed their first baby, a boy born in October last year. Robbie has since returned to work and is starring in Emerald Fennell's much-anticipated adaptation of Emily Bronte's novel Wuthering Heights.
The film is scheduled for release on Valentine's Day 2026.
