Why Beaux Arts Village Homeowners Trust
Our Interior Design Process

Beaux Arts Village is unlike anywhere else on the Eastside—one of Washington’s smallest incorporated villages, tucked between Lake Washington and the Bellevue city limits, where arts-and-crafts cottages, mature woodland, and a fiercely preserved sense of community create a setting of rare intimacy. Properties here are small in number and exceptional in character, and design must honor both. Ariana Designs & Interiors brings a full-service, integrated approach where architects, interior designers, and clients collaborate from concept through installation—ensuring every decision reflects your vision, respects the village’s distinct architectural heritage, and protects the long-term value of your home.

Discovery & Direction

We learn how you live in Beaux Arts Village—entertaining intimately, working from home, raising a family, or seeking retreat from a demanding schedule—then develop a concept that aligns architecture, interiors, and outdoor living around one cohesive vision tailored to your home and its wooded lakeside setting.

Design & Permitting

We refine layouts, finishes, lighting, and custom details to optimize Lake Washington views, natural light, and indoor-outdoor flow for the Pacific Northwest climate, coordinating all drawings and approvals with your builder and the Town of Beaux Arts Village to keep construction on schedule.

Execution & Handover

We manage construction details, oversee finish and furniture installation, and coordinate every trade so your approved design is realized exactly as envisioned—and your Beaux Arts Village home is fully furnished, styled, and move-in ready from day one.

Designing for Beaux Arts Village’s
Woodland Character and Heritage

Beaux Arts Village is one of Washington’s most singular addresses—a tiny lakeside community where arts-and-crafts architecture, old-growth trees, and an unwavering commitment to preservation create a setting unlike anything else on the Eastside. Design here must work with that grain, not against it.

  • Arts-and-crafts sensitivity – We approach the village’s architectural heritage with care—honoring original character, proportions, and materiality while modernizing interiors for the way you actually live, so renovations feel like they belong rather than intrude.
  • Lakefront and woodland integration – Whether your property faces Lake Washington or is nestled in the tree canopy, we design interiors and outdoor spaces that respond to their specific natural context—capturing light, views, and the quiet atmosphere that makes Beaux Arts Village so distinctive.
  • Bespoke renovation expertise – The village’s tight lot configurations and heritage protections require a designer who understands constraint as an asset. We work within those boundaries to create homes that are deeply personal, carefully detailed, and built to last.
  • Intimate, considered luxury – Beaux Arts Village homeowners aren’t looking for grand gestures—they want spaces that are quietly exceptional. We design interiors with that sensibility: refined, warm, and crafted to a standard that rewards close attention.

With deep experience across the Eastside’s most distinguished communities—from Beaux Arts Village and Medina to Hunts Point and Mercer Island—our team brings the craft and context that homes in this village deserve.
