hey, I’m Ilaria
I’m a solopreneur, Architect, Interior Designer and mama to a 5-year-old girl.
After working in the interior design industry for more than 14 years, I left the corporate world behind to pursue my dream of starting my own business and spending more time with my family. In layman's terms, I was tired of trading time for money!
I graduated with honors from University of Genoa in Architecture and Interior Design, I’ve attended a postgraduate specialization in Milan and Toronto in order to get an international knowledge in the interior industry.
I have helped hundreds of clients improve their homes and get the best for themselves and their families.
I believe that great design should be accessible to everyone. That's why I've crafted a process that prioritizes your needs and preferences from start to finish. Whether you're looking to refresh a single room or transform your entire home, I'm here to guide you every step of the way.
From our initial consultation to the final reveal, I'll work closely with you to understand your vision, lifestyle, and budget. Together, we'll explore design concepts, select furniture and finishes, and bring your space to life with creativity and attention to detail.
What I stand for:
Clarity & Confidence: I believe in helping my clients make informed decisions without the confusion and doubt that often comes with design. By providing clarity and expert guidance, I empower you to move forward with confidence.
Tailored Guidance & Practical Tools: Every design journey is unique. That’s why I provide personalized solutions, tools, and templates that are designed to support your specific needs—whether you're a homeowner or a professional interior designer.
Attention to Detail: Every space, every project, every detail matters. I pride myself on my meticulous attention to detail, ensuring that your vision is executed beautifully and seamlessly.
Exceptional Communication: I believe that open, honest communication is key to a successful collaboration. I’m here to listen, understand, and offer thoughtful, actionable advice every step of the way.
After years of helping clients worldwide, I know what works and what doesn’t. My goal is to guide you in creating functional, beautiful spaces that reflect your true style. Let’s work together to build something that’s not just designed well—but feels uniquely yours.
Mission
At Maisia Interior Design, my mission is to make interior design fun, easy, and stress-free.
Let’s face it: we’re all overwhelmed by the endless styles, photos, and millions of paint colors out there - seriously, have you seen how many shades of white there are?!.
My job is to cut through the noise and help you make the best choices for your home without all the confusion. I’ll work with you to create a space that feels totally “you”—all from the comfort of your own home. With over 14 years of experience, I’m here to make the design process simple, enjoyable, and full of heart.
For the past few years, I've expanded my work to collaborate with other interior designers as a coach, helping them manage their online projects and clients. I provide templates, work methods, and 1:1 support to guide them through every step of the process.
Real Clients, Real Results
“Ilaria is amazing! I struggled with a color choice for months, buying samples and hating them. She responded quickly to my purchase and provided sample choices quickly. I loved all of them and it was hard to decide. The consultation was provided in a format that was unbelievably professional with a description of why she chose the color choices. Also included was a VERY thorough description of which paint to use and why. Her knowledge is incredible and I would do this again in a heartbeat. The time and money involved in selecting a sample is far more than this service, Thank you Ilaria!”
Holly, Rockledge, FL
“We cannot thank you enough for putting the color palette together for us! The overall flow and organization is spectacular! We love the custom links within the document! You were so patient, even when our vision changed throughout the process. Thank you so much for your patience, recommendations and great communication! 10 out of 10! We look forward to working with you again in the near future!! Ilaria is absolutely AMAZING!!!!”
Jenny, Miami, FL
“Ilaria was wonderful- I cannot speak more highly of the services she provided. She carefully reviewed all of the photos that I sent over along with the aspired look and feel I was hoping to achieve and the recommendations she sent over was spot on. We love the colors she chose and her explanations as to why she chose that particular paint color was very helpful. I highly recommend!! We hope to use her services again!”
Ashley, Brooklyn, NY
“I am so happy with my consultation! Ilaria is very polite, knowledgeable, and quick to respond! She answered all my questions promptly! I can tell she is passionate about her work and I would recommend her to anyone needing help finding their color palette. Would purchase again!! Thank you so much Ilaria for being great!!”
Shawn, Baton Rouge, LA
“Our living room has some characteristics that make it challenging for us to decorate. ILaria gave us some floorplan suggestions that never occurred to us over the 10 years we've lived in this house, and we really liked them. This was incredibly helpful. Highly recommend!”
Jessica, Stillwater, OK
“I cannot recommend Ilaria enough! She has helped ease my mind about making decisions on paint colour. Her response time throughout the process was quick, and at one point with less than 24 hrs notice she was able to provide me with some choices for the doors before completing the full consultation. I highly recommend her expertise, you won’t be sorry. Many thanks Ilaria!”
Ginger, Edmonton, Canada
“Ilaria is incredibly professional. You should hire them. Not only were my requirements followed to the T, I really enjoyed the formal process. Also, Ilaria answered my follow up questions in a timely manner, which helped me out a lot”
Colleen, Toronto, Canada
"Ilaria always does an amazing job with any project I send her way. I HIGHLY recommend her! She selects perfect tile selections, paint colors, fixtures - everything. She's always very patient when I would like revisions (which usually isn't many, I just change my mind often) and the completed mood boards she sends are very easy to understand, and she includes the reasoning behind her selections. 10/10"
Austin, TX
"I am SO glad I had Ilaria's help with my exterior color palette! She is so kind, professional, thorough, and quick. The product she provided me was organized, clear, so helpful, and of course beautiful. I am so impressed by her and plan to use her services in future projects"
