Longwood is one of Seminole County’s most desirable communities — a place with genuine historic character, beautiful tree-lined streets, and a mix of charming older homes alongside well-kept newer neighborhoods. From the historic district around Church Avenue and the older properties near Longwood Historic District to the family-friendly developments further out, I understand the range of homes here and the way Florida’s climate shapes every design decision.
I am not just a designer — I am a creative partner in your project. I am based in Winter Garden and serve Longwood homeowners, builders, and realtors who want spaces that look beautiful and function for real life. I understand the balance between preserving the character of an older Longwood home and creating a fresh, modern interior that works the way you live today.
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.
Longwood is a community with real roots — a place where homeowners take pride in their properties
and value the character of their surroundings. Whether your style is modern and minimal,
warm, and traditional, or something entirely your own, I design your vision — not mine.
From residential renovations and room refreshes to full home designs and commercial interiors,
Stones Design LLC brings award-winning design expertise to every Longwood project.
I offer a full range of interior design services including new construction 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. I also work on commercial and hospitality interiors.
Yes. I offer free in-home design consultations in Longwood. 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. I provide a clear timeline at the start of every project, so you always know what to expect.
Yes. With 30 years of experience, I have worked on properties of all ages and styles. Longwood has some wonderful older homes with real character, and I understand how to create interiors that honor those features while making every space feel fresh, functional, and ready for the way you live today.
Ready to transform your space? Let’s talk about your
home and bring your vision to life — with a design that is
as functional as it is beautiful.
