Why Architects Should Be Involved Before Interior Design in Luxury Homes

By Sam Fratantoni • April 2, 2026

When building or remodeling a luxury home, the order in which professionals are brought into the process matters. One of the most common and costly mistakes homeowners make is involving interior design before architectural planning is fully developed. While interior design plays a critical role in how a home looks and feels, architecture is the foundation that determines how a home functions, flows, and endures. At Fratantoni Design, we believe architects should be involved before interior design begins. This approach ensures that the home’s structure, layout, and proportions are thoughtfully planned to support both aesthetics and livability from the start.

Luxury Entryway Design: How to Create a Statement Entrance That Defines Your Home

By Sam Fratantoni • March 25, 2026

In luxury residential architecture, the entryway is far more than a point of arrival. It is the moment your home introduces itself. Before a single room is experienced, the entry establishes scale, tone, and architectural intent. At Fratantoni Design, we approach entryway design as a defining architectural feature. Whether designing a grand foyer in a Paradise Valley estate or a refined entry sequence in a Scottsdale custom home build, the goal is always the same: create a space that feels intentional, elevated, and unforgettable. For high end custom homes, a well-designed entrance is not simply impressive. It is cohesive with the entire home’s architecture and sets expectations for every space that follows.
