A home can have beautiful materials and still feel unresolved. The difference is often in where those materials begin and end, how one surface meets another, and whether the mechanical elements were considered as part of the room.
A flush baseboard. A stone plinth at the stair. An HVAC grille built into the millwork. A routed door panel aligned with its hardware. Each one requires a decision in the drawings and coordination between trades before it ever appears on site.

These are ten of my favorite design details I’d carry from the first drawings through construction.



Details I’d add to your home as your interior designer: Carved stone pedestal basins. In a primary bath, they allow the vanity to read as two freestanding architectural pieces rather than another full run of cabinetry.

A stone window surround with the sill carried into the backsplash. Above a kitchen sink or bathroom vanity, it protects the opening and gives the view a finished frame.

A hand-painted ceiling in a hallway. It brings artwork into a circulation space without crowding the walls and gives the passage its own identity.

An oak staircase set into a stone plinth. The stone protects the base, defines where the stair begins, and creates a stronger material transition at the landing.

Custom parquet flooring with stone inlays. I’d use this in an entry, dining room, or gallery to create pattern through the floor itself instead of relying on a rug.

A seating niche built into the wall paneling. A shallow recess like this creates a place to sit in a hallway, landing, or bedroom without adding another piece of furniture.

I’d incorporate the HVAC grille into the cornice and fabricate it in the same wood as the surrounding millwork. It keeps the ceiling line continuous and avoids adding a separate metal register to an otherwise finished elevation.

Custom wood casing around an open passage, finished with rounded corner blocks. The casing turns a basic opening into a defined threshold and carries the millwork language from one room into the next.

A flush baseboard set in the same plane as the wal

Luxury is not a layer added at the end. It is built into the plan. It lives in the proportions of a space, the way you move through it, the placement of lighting, the fit of custom cabinetry, and the quiet resolution of every material transition.

At Nazeli Design Studio, we develop those decisions as one complete vision and carry them through drawings, specifications, coordination, procurement, and installation. That continuity is what allows the finished space to feel effortless.
For residential, commercial, and hospitality projects, the right time to begin is while the important choices are still open.

I like repetition when it doesn’t feel repetitive. Same language, different application.
I kept coming back to the same curve throughout this house, not as a theme, but as a way to soften the architecture and make different parts of the home relate to each other.

It shows up in the stair hall window, passageways, niches and built ins, sometimes obvious and sometimes barely noticeable.

The junior suite, reworked from the inside out.

We expanded and reshaped the room, redesigned the closet, and carried the vision through every detail of the bathroom and bedroom, including the custom vanity and built-in closet. Dark stone, high-gloss wood, warm brass and sculptural lighting give the suite its own identity while still feeling connected to the rest of the home.

The best projects come from clients with great taste who also trust the process. We’re incredibly grateful our clients trusted our design and guidance from the architectural changes to the final details. That trust gave us the freedom to create something truly special. 🖤

Designing for the youngest client in the house called for a little more play.
Her bedroom and bathroom carry the same softer language through both spaces, with custom built-ins, warm wood, blush tones, veined stone, brass and those little pink details that make it feel unmistakably hers.

In the bathroom, the marble became the backdrop for the scalloped mirror and sculptural glass sconces, while the custom cabinetry and hardware bring the same details back into her bedroom.

There are still a few final layers to come, but I already love where this one landed.

With this kitchen, I wanted all the function to almost disappear into the design.

Refrigeration, ovens, storage and pantry were folded into the millwork so the room could read as one continuous composition. The stone wrapped hood anchors the range wall, while the black framed glass cabinet gives just enough contrast against the pale oak and soft stone.

And the pantry follows the same language, because I never want the secondary spaces to feel secondary.

One of the most calming spaces in this full house remodel.
For the primary bathroom, I wanted the materials to do the work. Stone carried from the vanity wall into the shower and around the tub, while warm wood cabinetry, brass plumbing, arched mirrors and softer lighting kept the room from feeling too cold or stark.

The goal was to make it feel quiet, open and a little indulgent without overcomplicating anything.

A bathroom that feels understated at first, then reveals how much thought went into every surface.

I have a thing for details that almost disappear 🪄
Instead of treating the Arabescato Corchia as an applied wainscot, we detailed it to sit flush with the wall so the two finishes read as one continuous plane. No awkward projection, no unnecessary trim, just a clean transition from the dark textured wall into all that movement in the stone.

The vanity was designed as part of the architecture too. Custom high gloss cabinetry with an Arabescato Corchia top and integrated sink fabricated in the same stone, so the entire piece reads as one continuous element.

Then came the sculptural mirror, warm brass and suspended stone lighting.

A small powder room, but definitely not a simple one.

One of the bathrooms from our recently completed full house remodel, designed for our client’s daughter.

She wanted a Parisian feel, so we leaned into richer materials and a little more romance while still keeping the space clean and current.

Arabescato Viola became the starting point and carries from the vanity into the shower, paired with deep burgundy walls, warm wood cabinetry, brass fixtures, crystal sconces and custom marble hardware.

The result feels feminine, collected and a little dramatic without becoming too literal. 🤎
