The ATI Design Process: How We Deliver a Stress-Free Luxury Experience

At Alisha Taylor Interiors, we believe that exceptional design begins with a clear, collaborative design process that feels as enjoyable as the stunning luxury custom homes we create. As a trusted luxury Scottsdale interior designer, our goal is to guide you through every step, from our first conversation to the final reveal, so your home reflects your personality, lifestyle, and vision.

  1. Kickoff Meeting: Where Dreams Meet Design

Every unforgettable design journey starts with understanding you.
Our process begins with an in-depth conversation where we learn about your lifestyle, style preferences, functional needs, and long-term goals for your space. This phase ensures that the interiors we design are not only beautiful but uniquely yours.

  • New client inquiry & intake questions
  • Initial kickoff meeting to explore goals, budget, and project expectations
  • Analyzing your inspiration for our next step

This phase ensures we’re aligned before the creative work begins.

  1. Concept & Detailed: Bringing Ideas to Life

With your vision and inspo in hand, we begin crafting design concepts that capture the essence of what luxury means to you. As your Scottsdale interior designer, we consider every detail, from mood and color to scale and texture, so your space feels cohesive and intentional.

  • Curated storyboards that preview the design
  • Conversations about materials and finishes
  • Floor plans and 3D renderings that articulate the design direction

These visuals help you see what your finished space will feel like long before the first material is ordered.

  1. Design Documentation: Precision Meets Style

Once your concept is approved, we transition into detailed planning. This stage transforms our creative ideas into technical solutions that are buildable and functional to read for your contractor to execute.

  • Detailed architectural CAD elevations and updated floor plans
  • Selection of high-end materials like artisan finishes, custom cabinetry, and premium textiles

These plans become your design roadmap, ensuring that every decision supports the big picture.

  1. Collaboration & Construction Phase

A hallmark of luxury design is seamless coordination.
We work closely with architects, builders, and trades throughout the construction phase to ensure the design intent carries through every space.

  • Builder reviews of design documents
  • Regular site visits to check progress
  • Problem-solving in real time to protect your vision

This active role means fewer surprises and more luxury quality outcomes.

  1. Furniture, Finishes & Styling: The Art of the Detail

With structure in place, we begin sourcing the custom furniture, lighting, art, and accessories that elevate your interiors. This is where your personality shines most deeply.

  • Curated furniture layouts
  • Procurement of custom and exclusive pieces
  • Installation and styling

Every piece is selected for beauty, comfort, and meaning ensuring your home feels both luxurious and lived-in.

  1. The Reveal: Your Dream Home Is Ready

The final step in our design process is the moment we know you’ve been waiting for: the final reveal! We walk through each room with you, making sure everything aligns with your expectations and feels absolutely right.
