Lancaster Interior Design serves Longboat Key homeowners from its studio in Osprey, with two Longboat Key condo renovations in the portfolio below: a classic Water Club residence given a full modern makeover, and a 4,200 square foot Gulf-front condominium transformed into a quiet winter retreat. Primary residences, seasonal homes, remodels and new construction are all in our range.
Each of our six services is available to Longboat Key condominiums and houses.
For a Longboat Key home that needs a new direction rather than new walls, we develop fabrics, lighting, furnishings and art as a single vision, then carry it through purchasing, styling and the finishing touches. The work starts with how you live and aims to settle the overall direction within two to three weeks, after which we manage ordering, tracking and receiving on your behalf. Full-service interior design in Longboat Key.
Condo renovations are the Longboat Key work we are known for: both projects below opened up dated units, replaced tile and flooring and rebuilt kitchens and bathrooms around the Gulf view. We design before anyone demolishes, documenting what changes, what stays and how each element connects, with architects and engineers brought in when their expertise is required, and we recommend a 15–20 percent construction contingency because older units reveal surprises once walls are opened. Remodeling interior design in Longboat Key.
Building new on Longboat Key, we join your architect and builder early so architecture, interiors and furnishings are planned as one. Builder allowances are reviewed against the selections you actually want, so any budget gap appears on paper rather than mid-construction, and waterfront and resort-style living are specialties of the studio.

Floor-to-ceiling glass makes light control the first decision in many Longboat Key rooms. We design solar, woven and Roman shades and custom draperies around sun exposure, privacy and the view you want to keep, with rechargeable, battery or hardwired motorization for existing homes and new builds, and exterior shades and draperies for lanais and cabanas.

Storage designed around what you own: kitchen built-ins, dressing rooms, pantries, garages and outdoor kitchens. Resources run 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 specified for Florida’s sun, humidity and coastal conditions.

A focused session for the decisions you have been putting off: a Half Day for one room or a defined set of selections, or a Full Day for several rooms, construction selections or a builder design-center appointment.
