THE FOUNDing partners
AuraLuxe began with a devotion to beauty, precision, and the details no one sees but everyone feels. That dedication matured into a disciplined practice—one that honors legacy, protects privacy, and practices preservation as a discipline. We serve with presence. We protect what endures. We hold the standard.
Standards are kept by people. Meet them.
GUSTAVO MARQUI
Co-Founder & Director of Standards
With over a decade immersed in private residence care, Gustavo founded AuraLuxe to redefine what true home stewardship means. Having witnessed how even the most exquisite homes were treated without understanding or reverence, he set out to protect what others overlooked—the soul of a residence, and the craftsmanship within it.
To Gustavo, every home is a sanctuary—a living reflection of years of curated choices, bespoke furnishings, and quiet memories. His philosophy centers on preservation over performance: honoring materials, respecting privacy, and maintaining the serenity that fine homes were designed to hold. He ensures that each home receives the same level of respect and dignity as the families it serves—where every touch carries intention, and every return feels timelessly prepared.
JUSTIN SHORT
Co-Founder & Director of Operations
Justin brings the balance of precision and pragmatism to AuraLuxe’s philosophy of quiet excellence. With extensive experience managing luxury residences and service teams, he ensures that the ideals on which AuraLuxe was founded are translated into seamless, real-world systems that uphold every promise of discretion and mastery.
Grounded, strategic, and deeply detail-oriented, Justin oversees the operational cadence that keeps each property’s care rhythm consistent year-round—from scheduling and client communication to specialty project coordination. His leadership bridges philosophy and logistics, ensuring every task is performed with intention, every system functions invisibly, and every client feels their home is in the most capable hands.
