Lancaster Interior Design works with Venice, Manasota Key and Casey Key homeowners from its studio in Osprey, designing primary residences, seasonal homes, waterfront properties, new construction and renovations. Our Manasota Key project, a Gulf-front main house and guest house designed with a Venice-based architect, is in the portfolio below.
Every service our studio offers is available to Venice and Manasota Key homes.
A whole-home transformation without the construction: fabrics, lighting and furnishings developed as one vision and carried through purchasing, styling and the finishing touches. We begin with how you live, aim for approval of the overall direction within two to three weeks, then manage ordering, tracking and receiving while you enjoy the anticipation. Full-service interior design in Venice.
Design first, demo second. Before construction starts we establish what is changing, what is staying and how each element connects, with layouts and interior documentation developed in-house and architects and engineers brought in when their expertise is required. Older Florida homes can reveal surprises once walls are opened, so we recommend a construction contingency of 15–20 percent. Remodeling interior design in Venice.
Your future home deserves attention long before the foundation is poured. We bring architecture, interiors and furnishings into one plan, collaborate with your architect and builder, and review builder allowances against the selections you are considering so a budget mismatch shows up on paper rather than during construction. Waterfront homes and resort-style living are specialties of ours. New construction interior design in Venice.
Window design starts with the whole room: architecture, sun exposure, privacy and the view you want to frame. Solar shades, woven shades, Roman shades and custom draperies manage light and glare, and motorization, whether rechargeable, battery-powered or hardwired, brings everyday ease to existing homes and new builds alike. Exterior shades and draperies extend the same comfort to lanais and cabanas. Custom window treatments in Venice.
Kitchen built-ins, dressing rooms, pantries, garages and outdoor kitchens, designed around what you store and how you use each space. Our resources range from semi-custom lines such as Wood-Mode, Brookhaven, Decorá and Fabuwood to fully bespoke pieces and our private-label closet and garage systems, with outdoor cabinetry chosen for Florida’s sun, humidity and coastal conditions. Custom cabinetry and closets in Venice.
Bring your questions, plans and the decisions you have been putting off. Choose a Half Day for one room or a defined set of selections, or a Full Day for several rooms, construction selections or builder design-center appointments. Sessions take place at your home, the Lancaster showroom, your project site, a tile showroom or stone yard, or virtually. Designer for a Day consultations in Venice.
