Custom Over Catalogue: Why High End Interiors Should Never Be Cookie-Cutter

By Vince Fratantoni • June 11, 2025
Picture this: You stroll into a gleaming furniture showroom. Marble floors gleam under spotlights, sofas are grouped into perfectly staged vignettes, and a salesperson assures you that their collection is “exactly what discerning buyers like you want this year.” Yet the moment that furniture crosses your threshold it feels… flat. It looked sumptuous on the sales floor, but inside your home it’s just another catalogue vignette pasted into a space that was meant to be uniquely yours. True luxury clients quickly learn a painful lesson, prestige price tags don’t guarantee a personalized experience, only bespoke design does. At Fratantoni Interior Designers, we champion custom over catalogue. In homes from Scottsdale to New York, we craft interiors as distinctive as the families who live in them, ensuring every finish tells their story, never a mass-market script.

The Art of Layering: How to Mix Textures & Fabrics in Luxury Interiors

By Vince Fratantoni • May 7, 2025
When you step into a home that exudes comfort, refinement, and quiet confidence, it’s not by accident. The space feels complete. This is not because it’s filled with furniture, but because every element interacts with intention. Often, the magic lies in what you don’t immediately notice: the layers of texture and fabric woven seamlessly throughout. At Fratantoni Interior Designers, we’ve spent decades perfecting the subtleties of luxury design. And one of the most impactful tools in our creative arsenal is the art of layering. In this article, we’ll take you behind the curtain of our process—not to show you how to become a designer, but to show you what’s possible when you hire one who understands how to translate a vision into something exquisite, tactile, and personal. Understanding the Language of Texture Texture is more than touch. It’s emotion. It’s memory. It’s the soft elegance of a mohair ottoman or the understated strength of a honed limestone fireplace. It’s how light hits a raw silk curtain in the morning, or the way your hand sinks into a cashmere-wrapped headboard at night. In luxury design, texture is the thread that connects aesthetic beauty to real-world comfort. And our team at Fratantoni Interior Designers is fluent in it. Whether we’re designing a sun-soaked villa in Arizona or an ultra-modern Manhattan penthouse, our work begins with identifying how our clients want to feel in each space. Texture then becomes the language through which we communicate that feeling, quiet or bold, relaxed or formal, classic or unexpected. Our Signature Approach: Curated, Not Cluttered Some homes are over-decorated. Others are under-designed. The most luxurious strike a perfect balance, and that balance comes from experience. At Fratantoni, we take a curated approach to layering. Our clients aren’t looking for trendy Instagram rooms; they want timeless interiors that reflect their individuality and sophistication. Here’s how we achieve that: Contrast with harmony – We pair soft with sleek, rough with refined, always ensuring cohesion. Intentional repetition – A boucle fabric may reappear subtly in pillows, a bench, and drapery trims. One hero element per room – A standout velvet sofa or dramatic textural wall covering sets the tone. Material weight and scale – We balance heavier fabrics with lighter ones to keep rooms airy but grounded. Every decision is calibrated for visual and sensory impact, not excess.
