While Luce is known for her spare and minimalist work, her studio, Luce et Studio Architects, which she established in 1990, is named "Luce et" for its collaborative studio–client design process. Luce et Studio's body of work includes commissions such as the redesign of the Mingei International Museum in San Diego's Balboa Park, Nissan's new Farmington Hills and LaJolla design studio, as well as corporate and residential commissions, site-specific art, public art, landscape installations, and furniture design. Luce's work was also included in MIX an architecture and design show in 2009 at the San Diego Museum of Contemporary Art.
