Dr. Phillips is one of Southwest Orlando’s most sought-after communities — an upscale, family-friendly area known for its excellent schools, proximity to Restaurant Row, and a strong mix of luxury gated communities and well-appointed single-family homes. The properties here demand interiors that match the quality of their surroundings, and I bring 40 years of experience and an eye for detail to every Dr. Phillips project.
I am not just a designer — I am a creative partner in your project. I am based in nearby Winter Garden and have worked with Dr. Phillips homeowners, builders, and realtors for years. I understand the expectations that come with this community’s homes, and I deliver interiors that meet them.
Whether you are designing a forever home, renovating a property you have lived in for years, or furnishing a vacation rental that needs to impress from the first listing photo, I bring the same level of care and expertise to every project.
Dr. Phillips homeowners invest in their properties and expect interiors that reflect that investment —
spaces that are polished, personal, and designed for the way they live. Whether your style is modern and minimal,
warm, and traditional, or something entirely your own, I design your vision — not mine.
From luxury renovations and whole-home designs to single-room refreshes and turnkey projects,
Stones Design LLC brings award-winning design expertise to every Dr. Phillips home.
I offer a full range of interior design services including new construction and custom build design, home renovation and remodeling, room-by-room refreshes, furniture selection and space planning, color consulting, and complete turnkey projects — designed and furnished from scratch, right down to the linens. I also work on commercial and hospitality interiors.
Yes. I offer free in-home design consultations in Dr. Phillips. We will walk through your space together, discuss how you live and what you want to change, and provide expert guidance tailored to your home, style, and budget.
Timelines vary depending on the scope. A single-room refresh can take a few weeks, while a full home design or renovation project typically runs over several months. For larger Dr. Phillips properties, I provide a detailed timeline at the start, so you always know what to expect.
Yes. With 30 years of experience, I have worked on high-end residential projects across Central Florida, including homes in gated communities, custom new builds, and fully furnished turnkey properties. I also bring international design experience across residential, commercial, and hospitality projects.
