Hi, I’m Leah Almog Arazi
NYC General Contractor • Founder, OOR Design Build Columbia University, M.S. Construction Management Featured in leading design and media outlets.
Since 2007, when I founded OOR Design Build, I’ve led with one mission. To bring light, clarity, alignment, fulfillment, and happiness into every space I design and build.
I don’t build walls.
I build lives.
Homes that shift energy, identity, and future.
Because when you bring light into a home, you elevate everyone who lives inside, especially the children growing within it.
This mission is the heart of Renovation Clarity.

Planning a major renovation in the coming months?
You’ve probably seen what happens when construction begins before the full picture is clear.
Budgets spiral.
Decisions get rushed.
Expensive changes appear halfway through the project.
And what started as an exciting renovation becomes far more complicated and costly – than anyone expected.
The problem usually isn’t taste or vision.
It’s that no one shows homeowners how to lead a renovation with the right clarity, strategy, and decision structure from day one.
This free 4-day experience was created to change that.
Don’t hope your renovation works out.
Learn how it should be led.
Live 4-Day Pre-Construction Intensive
January 20–23, 2026
We accept a limited number of renovation projects each year.
OOR Design Build is a boutique firm. We limit the number of projects we take on to protect quality, attention, and client experience.
If you want OOR to potentially lead your renovation, you’ll have the option to request a private fit call after Day 4.
Your home is the foundation of your family’s next chapter.
This is where clarity begins.
