Why Bellevue Homeowners Trust
Our Interior Design Process

You can’t trust just any designer with a $1.5M+ Bellevue home, which is why Ariana Designs & Interiors uses an integrated, collaborative process where architects, designers, and clients work together to protect and elevate long-term property value. Every decision—from structural redesigns and City of Bellevue permitting to European-influenced, timeless interiors—is made through open communication to ensure your space is both deeply personal and strategically positioned for decades of appreciation.

Discovery & Direction

Moodboards, site analysis, and lifestyle programming clarify your vision and goals, leading to an approved design concept that aligns architecture, interiors, and day-to-day living.

Design & Permitting

We develop detailed layouts, materials, cabinetry, and construction documents, then manage city and HOA submissions to secure permit-ready drawings and approved building permits.

Execution & Handover

Our team coordinates contractors, oversees quality control, and provides weekly updates, guiding your project through construction and installation to deliver your completed dream home.

Designing for Bellevue’s
Unique Environment

Bellevue’s landscape, weather, and regulations need a tailored approach, not generic design.

  • View optimization – Frame Lake Washington and Cascade views while controlling privacy and glare.
  • Pacific Northwest climate – Use moisture-resistant materials and smart ventilation for rainy seasons.
  • Hillside lots – Design split-level layouts and terraces that make sloped sites comfortable and usable.
  • HOA and permits – Align with Medina, Clyde Hill, and Somerset guidelines while coordinating Bellevue and King County approvals efficiently.

Drawing on 50+ projects across Bellevue, you bring local, proven solutions rather than trial-and-error design.

We just got stated with Ariana Designs and Architecture. Normally I would wait to leave a review, but I feel compelled to let everyone know how great they’ve been so far!
We recently engaged with them about a challenging project where the client is constrained to the existing footprint of the home due to its existing nonconforming status.
Ariana and her Delightful Team have quickly and expertly employed their skills and giftings to transform the project from frustrating to exciting!
