Statement Walls and Floors- “Wow” Factor

We’ve all seen a home with statement walls or floors that makes you stop and say “wow” in your tracks. At Fratantoni Interior Designers, our luxury interior designers are renowned for exactly the type of style that leaves a lasting first impression! We love unique statement features that make a home stand out. Lately, we’ve been all about implementing features that often achieve a “wow” factor. Thus, done by creating unique spaces, and customizing them completely for our clients with different textures, and colors.

One way to achieve a wow factor is in your flooring selection and paint colors (hello accent walls!). Although this trend isn’t new, there are always new ways to interpret it and fresh takes from our designers. Such as this stunning custom dark wood flooring design which completely steals the show. A flooring design can include user-friendly material that is long-lasting, easy to keep clean, and most of all stands out in the room! Who knew that a floor could be a conversation piece? Furthermore, floor selection determines a lot about your home’s style and many people overlook the opportunity to really make a statement by selecting flooring that stands out. This subtle upgrade pays dividends if you ask us – it’s one successful way to transform your space from the ground up, in the most literal sense. From there, you can enhance the walls through color and texture, and continue to elevate the home’s design through custom ceilings and window selections.

Furthermore, another example of a wow factor room is a powder room with all mirrors. Instead of the normal powder room with just one mirror to check your hair at the vanity, this powder room has mirrored walls throughout. The elegance of the silver, as well as the unique lighting makes the style of the powder extraordinary. Check out more statement pieces from the Modern Estate here!

The options are limitless and so are the reasons to hire a professional to assist with such an important process. Designing your home with luxury interior design is our specialty at Fratantoni Interior Designers and it’s also our greatest honor. A home is an extension of oneself. Thus, we value the trust our clients place in us to create safe havens for their families. For all to enjoy for generations to come. Let your home be a living piece of art!

How Luxury Interior Designers Coordinate With Architects and Builders

By Josie Fratantoni • February 6, 2026

Designing a luxury custom home requires more than selecting furnishings or choosing color palettes. True high end residential interiors are the result of close collaboration between interior designers, architects, and builders working toward a shared vision. When these disciplines operate in alignment from the earliest planning stages, the finished residence reflects cohesion, functionality, and long term livability rather than disconnected decisions made in isolation. For homeowners investing in a custom estate, understanding how a luxury interior designer coordinates with architects and builders provides clarity and confidence throughout the design journey. This collaborative process ensures that interior layouts, structural planning, and construction execution all support one another rather than compete for space or resources.

Working With a Nationwide Luxury Interior Design Firm From Concept to Completion

By Jessica Fratantoni • January 28, 2026

Designing the interiors of a custom luxury home is a deeply personal and highly detailed process. For homeowners building or renovating high end residences, choosing a nationwide luxury interior design firm provides both creative vision and logistical confidence. A firm that operates across state lines brings experience, structure, and the ability to manage complex projects while maintaining a consistent standard of excellence from the earliest design conversations through final installation. A nationwide luxury interior designer is not simply selecting furnishings or finishes. The role extends into space planning, material selection, custom millwork coordination, lighting design, furniture sourcing, and the overall lifestyle functionality of the residence. When executed properly, this process transforms a home into a cohesive environment that reflects the homeowner’s identity while supporting long term comfort and usability.

Why Interior Design Should Begin at the Architectural Planning Stage

By Josie Fratantoni • January 21, 2026

When most people think about interior design, they imagine furniture, finishes, and final styling. In reality, the most successful luxury interiors are shaped long before any of those decisions are made. For custom homes and high-end renovations, interior design should begin at the architectural planning stage , not after construction documents are complete. When interior designers are involved early, they help shape the very framework of how a home functions, feels, and lives for decades to come. This early collaboration is one of the most overlooked advantages in luxury home design, and one that discerning homeowners increasingly prioritize.

What Defines True Luxury Interior Design in 2026?

By Jessica Fratantoni • January 12, 2026

Luxury interior design in 2026 is no longer defined by excess, trend saturation, or price alone. Today’s most discerning homeowners are seeking something far more refined: intentional design, expert execution, and spaces that feel deeply personal while remaining timeless. As expectations rise, the definition of true luxury has evolved into a balance of craftsmanship, lifestyle alignment, and thoughtful restraint. Understanding what genuinely defines luxury interior design is essential for homeowners building or renovating custom homes, especially those investing at a high level. In 2026, luxury is not about what is added, but about what is curated, refined, and designed with purpose.
