residential DesigN

Studio Formichella specializes in residential interior design throughout New York City, shaping homes that feel collected and enduring with a dedication to the art of color, texture, and narrative.

our Design Process

01
Discovery

To begin, we chat with you about your goals and we learn the space like the back of our hands. Then we bring in our team of contractors & experts to define and refine our scope of work.

02
Curation

This is when we dive into design concept development, floor planning, and start selecting furniture, fixtures, materials and finishes. Design meetings unfold with an intuitive flow while we hone in on our shared design language.

03
Installation

We handle all things procurement, project coordination, installation, and final styling. Onsite, the project should feel as seamless as the design work itself.
