RESIDENTIAL INTERIOR DESIGN
Full-Service Interior Design in New York City, the Hamptons & Miami
Luxury residential interior design in New York City, the Hamptons, and Miami. Full-service projects rooted in feng shui and organic modern principles — designed around wellness, natural light, and how a home is actually used every day.

THE STUDIO
Full-service interior design for homeowners who value wellness, beauty, and balance.
Studio Kestrel is a luxury residential interior design practice led by Paul de Andrade. We work with homeowners, architects, and builders to deliver full-service design — concept through installation — across three markets we know intimately.
Our work draws on organic modern principles, natural materials, and feng shui — designing residential interiors that feel grounded, holistic, and built for how you actually live. Never staged, never over-designed.
OUR APPROACH
Four phases, fully managed.
Every project starts with a consultation, then moves through four phases — from concept to final styling. Full-scale renovations typically run 14 to 24 months; lighter projects — pied-à-terres, rental and investment properties, and turn-key apartments — can complete in 6 to 10.
BEFORE WE BEGIN
A 2-hour design consultation
A focused working session — not a meet-and-greet. We discuss your goals, refine the vision for each space, and develop a detailed scope of work. The consultation gives the project clear direction from day one, and confirms we're the right fit before either of us commits further.

01
Concept Development
Floor plans, palette direction, mood boards, and concept presentations. We refine through review sessions until the design story for the home is fully resolved.
02
Design Documentation
Technical drawings, finish schedules, lighting plans, and furniture specifications — the level of detail trades and contractors need to execute without guesswork.
03
Procurement & Project Management
Furniture, finishes, lighting, and art — ordered and tracked through delivery. We work closely with contractors, architects, and trade partners through construction, so renovations and installations stay true to the design.
04
Installation & Styling
A full install with our team on-site. Furniture placed, art hung, shelves and surfaces styled. The home is finished and ready by the time we leave.

TESTIMONIALS
What our clients say.
"The work Paul has done for us is beyond stunning — everyone who walks in the door is just blown away. Each space is so comfortable and functional that we spend time in almost every room throughout the day. It has been a fantastic experience."

"Paul brings a client's vision to life - even when the client isn't totally sure what their style is yet. He makes the design process fun, exciting and so seamless, which is rare in a world of logistics, furniture delays, and COIs."
