Meet Arianna Tascione
Founder & Principal Designer
Luxury Guide’s Design Curator
Arianna Tascione brings European refinement and architectural depth to every project she touches. Originally from the Abruzzo region of Italy and now based in South Florida, Arianna’s design philosophy is rooted in timeless proportions, natural materials, and spaces that feel authentically lived in rather than staged.
Holding a Master’s Degree in Architecture earned in Italy, Arianna approaches each project with a strong architectural foundation. Her expertise extends beyond interiors—she is deeply involved in space planning, layouts, elevations, and the structural “bones” of a home. This holistic approach allows her to create interiors that are not only visually refined but structurally intentional and balanced.
Travel through historic European cities, old villas, and layered architectural spaces first sparked her love of design. Those early experiences shaped her appreciation for longevity over trends—an ethos that continues to define her work today. Warm, timeless, and refined, Arianna’s signature style blends European elegance with relaxed coastal living, creating homes that feel elevated yet welcoming.
A recent milestone in her career includes completing a spec home that sold within one week to a well-known actor, who personally complimented the design. An editorial feature is forthcoming. Arianna was also recently interviewed on the American Dream TV channel, where she shared her projects and design philosophy.
Now, we step inside her creative world.
GETTING STARTED IN DESIGN
Where are you from?
I’m originally from Italy, from the Abruzzo region, and I’m currently based in South Florida.
Has your cultural background influenced your design approach?
Absolutely. Growing up in Italy gave me a deep appreciation for timeless architecture, natural materials, and homes that feel lived in—not staged. I design with warmth and proportion first, trends second.
How did you get started in design?
I earned a Master’s Degree in Architecture in Italy. That background allows me to approach design with a strong architectural foundation. In the U.S., I’m directly involved in space planning, layouts, and elevations—not just interiors, but the bones of the project as well.
What first sparked your love of design?
Places. Traveling through historic cities, old villas, and layered homes made me realize how powerful space can be in shaping how we feel.
If you weren’t an interior designer?
Something creative and strategic—most likely architecture, real estate development, or brand design.
DEFINING MOMENTS
A project you’re especially proud of?
A recent spec home that sold within one week to a well-known actor. I had the opportunity to speak with him directly, and he personally complimented the design. An editorial feature is coming soon.
Awards or recognitions?
I was recently interviewed on American Dream TV, where I shared several projects and my design approach. The full interview is available on Instagram.
SIGNATURE STYLE & PHILOSOPHY
Signature style in three words?
Warm. Timeless. Refined.
One design rule you always follow?
Proportion matters more than decoration.
One rule you love to break?
That everything needs to match perfectly—contrast creates depth.
How do you make a home beautiful and livable?
By designing for real life first. If a space isn’t functional, it will never truly feel beautiful.
What material are you loving right now?
Natural stone—especially travertine and warm marbles.
Favorite room to transform?
The kitchen. It sets the tone for the entire house.
Where do you splurge if budget allows?
Custom millwork and cabinetry.
If your aesthetic were a car?
A Range Rover—elegant, strong, timeless, and functional.
Lesson from a difficult project?
Clear boundaries and communication are just as important as good design.
BEHIND THE PROJECT

How to make a small room feel larger?

Define priorities and budget honestly—before falling in love with inspiration images.
