I understand what makes Montverde special. It is a quiet, close-knit community with beautiful lakeside properties and larger estate-style homes that deserve a thoughtful, personalized approach to design. I know how Florida’s climate shapes every decision — from materials and finishes to color palettes and natural light — and I bring that understanding to every Montverde project.
I am not just a designer — I am a creative partner in your project. I am based in the neighboring Winter Garden, just minutes from Montverde, and I work closely with homeowners, builders, and realtors across the area who want spaces that look beautiful and function for real life.
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.
Montverde is one of Central Florida’s hidden gems — a peaceful, scenic community where homeowners take real pride in their properties. Whether your style is modern and minimal, warm, and traditional, or something entirely your own, I design your vision — not mine.
From residential new builds and renovations to larger estate projects, Stones Design LLC brings award-winning design expertise to every Montverde home.
