Luxury interior design meets Ariel Okin, New York based interior design extraordinaire we’ll be covering in today’s edition of our Design Spotlight Series!

Her luxury interior designs are genuinely stunning! I’ve been a devoted fan of her work (girl crush!), often turning to it for inspiration when my decor spirit needs a boost.
Ariel’s unique touch is unmistakable across a rich portfolio that spans from luxurious residences to upscale hospitality spaces.

Let’s take a look at some of her stunning work, shall we?
Luxury Interior Designer Spotlight
Her creations feel delightfully fresh, but they also have a strong timeless quality that comes from her expert eye when intertwining traditional and contemporary aesthetics.
Her designs strike a dynamic balance between traditional and vintage aesthetics with a renewed fresh spin. Neutral and clean lines mix beautifully with bespoke pieces and antique finds. Luxury interior design for a new generation!

Playfully incorporating bold contemporary touches and shapes alongside traditional patterns and pieces, each of her designs radiates a unique character that carries that old-world elegance flair.

From lively and vibrant shades to coastal-inspired palettes, she effortlessly incorporates crisp neutrals and unexpected pairings of floral patterns and rich tactile materials.
Many of her creations feature my favorite color combo, green and blue. You can see how, depending on the hues and shades, the mood achieved in each space is so different yet equally stunning. Her spaces give a casual feel toning down the luxury interior design that is in no way showy or gaudy.

It’s no surprise that her skillful use of color and materials have become hallmarks of her designs!
In this room, part of the Cobble Hill project, the royal egg blue and soft green pairing, is an exquisite example. It creates a serene but visually interesting space full of personality.

The grasscloth wallpaper works as the perfect canvas when paired with coastal-inspired furniture, like the chic linen bench with blue welts and the stylish whitewash rattan chair. I look to this as inspiration for my own coastal homes!

This curated space beautifully weaves in Chinoiserie motifs and vibrant green accents, creating a magazine-worthy look that’s both classic and trendsetting.

In the South Hampton project, the color theme of the bedroom is warmer and more summery. With walls decked out in braided jute wallpaper, the light green accents in the decor and bedding along with the floral motifs give this space a fresh and inviting vibe.

The style is used to decorate the entire home. It’s fresh, playful, and sophisticated.

The living room has a dramatic blue theme that’s just spectacular!


In the New Cannan home she designed, the interiors are layered with a playful mix of texture and warm muted tones.

Layering carpets and rugs throughout the home against dark hardwood floors, the designer mixed geometric and folk-inspired designs with Persian patterns.

The warm hues continue in other rooms as a connecting thread such as in furniture pieces, wallpaper, and curtains.

We can find the use of light blue hues paired with natural woven textures and traditional elements like chinoiserie in many of her designs.

What I adore about it is that while it has all the hallmarks of her style, each room has a unique personality that reflects the client’s taste and lifestyle.

It’s the art of blending elements in countless ways to create spaces that while following a theme, genuinely mirror your personality and style.
That’s one of the many reasons I love Okin’s luxury interior design creations. It’s interiors that feel both practical for everyday living, delightfully opulent, and one-of-a-kind.
