A New Year, A New Standard for How You Live
Turnkey Luxury Interior Design in Miami with Brickell Interiors The start of a new year invites reflection—on how we live, what we value, and what we’re ready to elevate. For many Miami homeowners, that reflection begins at home. Spaces that once felt right may now feel incomplete, no longer aligned with the life you’ve built or the one you’re moving toward. In a city like Miami—particularly in neighborhoods such as Brickell, where growth is constant and the pace is unrelenting—home should...

Avoiding the "Miami Design Aesthetic" Trap
If you do an Instagram search for Miami Interior Design (try it, I just did!) you will get a bunch of images and videos that are all monochromatic, with lots of whites and beiges, light color wood. finishes, and lots of white stone. While saturated color is being used more and more everywhere else in the world, Miami seems to not want to let go of beige, which has become synonymous with “the Miami aesthetic.” In my view, this aesthetic does not reflect the people who live in this city. The...

Holiday-Ready Flex Rooms: Welcome Guests Without Disrupting Your Home (Miami Interior Design Guide)
If Miami feels a little more built-up every time you step outside—you’re not imagining it. Between Brickell’s cranes, Edgewater’s new towers, and tighter floor plans from Coral Gables to Miami Beach, every square foot matters. That’s why a well-planned flex room becomes your holiday superpower: a calm, comfortable guest space in December that snaps back to your office, media lounge, or wellness nook in January. Bonus points if it quietly layers in biophilic touches (light, wood, greenery)...

Entering 2026 with Intention
Designing homes shaped by real life and personal meaning. As we enter a new year, I find myself reflecting less on what’s next and more on what truly matters. Design is often discussed in terms of aesthetics — what’s current, what’s beautiful, what photographs well. But living in a space is a very different experience than looking at one. A home shapes how we move through our days, how we rest, how we connect, and how supported we feel in our own environment. In a city like Miami — dynamic,...

Miami Art Week 2025
The City, the Chaos, and the Magic in Between Every year in late fall, right as Miami’s skyline seems to stretch another inch into the clouds and Brickell slips further into its eternal state of “under construction,” something shifts in the air. The days are shorter. The weather is nothing short of spectacular. Traffic may become a full-contact sport, yes — but the energy? Electric. Suddenly the cranes feel like set pieces, the honking becomes background percussion, and the whole city takes...

From Miami to Punta Cana: Designing a Tropical Modern Getaway, Seamlessly
Punta Cana has quickly become one of the most desirable destinations in the Caribbean for vacation homeowners—and for good reason. Its turquoise waters, lush palms, and easy connection to Miami make it a natural extension for anyone who loves coastal living with a touch of sophistication. So when a close friend asked me to help furnish their three-bedroom beach home—complete with a pool, gazebo, and outdoor kitchen—I knew it was the perfect opportunity to blend Miami modern style with...

Falling Into Fall: Bringing the Season Into Your South Florida Home
My husband, who grew up in the Northeast, has the audacity to say that we have no seasons in Miami. I beg to differ. We may not see the dramatic temperature swings or watch maples turn fiery red, but there are very real shifts—both physical and emotional—that mark the arrival of fall in South Florida. Once we get through the brunt of hurricane season, I feel the changes instantly. The days shorten, the air dries, and sometimes—just sometimes—the thermometer dips a few precious degrees. Cue...

Breaking from Beige: Using Color to Show Our True Selves in Miami Interior Design
In an earlier post I was vocal about how (and why I believe) it seems we cannot let go of beige in Miami Interior Design. So, in this post, I will share some tips on how to incorporate color into your spaces to make them welcoming, comfortable, and reflective of your personal style (and free yourself from cookie cutter beige!). Colors don’t just serve an aesthetic function; they have psychological impacts that can shape how we feel, behave, and experience a space. This is the essence of ...

The Art of Effortless Living: How Brickell Interiors Shapes Miami’s Most Refined Homes
Miami is booming, and nowhere is that more visible than in Brickell. Towering high-rises and rapid development make it feel like the city is constantly in motion. Amid this growth, your home should be more than beautiful—it should be your sanctuary. But here’s the truth: creating a home that feels cohesive, personal, and effortless is far more complicated than most people realize. Many homeowners begin with the best intentions—scrolling Pinterest, visiting showrooms, or ordering a few pieces...

Art Deco Turns 100: Miami’s Enduring Love Affair With Design
The recent reopening of the Waldorf Astoria after its stunning renovation has captured the world’s attention — and for good reason. Its Art Deco grandeur, revived with modern sophistication, feels like a love letter to that vibrant age of design. But here in Miami, we don’t just admire Art Deco from afar — we live inside it. Miami Beach has the world’s largest collection of Art Deco structures, with over 800 preserved buildings built between the 1920’s and 1940’s. This includes the...
