FAQ
SCOTT FORMBY DESIGN | LUXURY RESIDENTIAL INTERIOR DESIGN IN LOS ANGELES AND NEW YORK
Scott Formby is a luxury residential interior designer with studios in Los Angeles and New York, working nationally on full-service interior design projects. While the studio is primarily known for architecturally grounded homes, select commercial and hospitality interiors are undertaken when aligned with the design vision.
WHAT SERVICES DOES SCOTT FORMBY DESIGN PROVIDE?
Scott Formby Design is a full-service luxury residential interior design studio with studios in Los Angeles and New York. We work nationally, providing comprehensive interior design services for new construction, major renovations, and full-home furnishing projects. Our scope includes interior concept
development, architectural collaboration, material and finish selection, custom furniture design, sourcing, procurement, and installation oversight.
WHERE IS SCOTT FORMBY DESIGN BASED?
Scott Formby Design operates from Los Angeles and New York, serving residential clients throughout California, New York, and select markets nationwide. We regularly take on projects in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Beverly Hills, Pacific Palisades, Dallas, Chicago, and other design-forward cities.
WHAT DOES FULL-SERVICE RESIDENTIAL INTERIOR DESIGN INCLUDE?
Full-service residential interior design means overseeing every aspect of a home’s interior — from early planning and space refinement to furnishings, lighting, art integration, and custom detailing. Rather than decorating individual rooms, we design the residence as a cohesive whole, ensuring clarity in
proportion, materiality, and tone.
DO YOU WORK ON RENOVATIONS, NEW BUILDS OR FURNISHING-ONLY PROJECTS?
Yes. As a luxury interior designer in Los Angeles and New York, Scott frequently collaborates on ground-up construction and large-scale renovations. We also take on comprehensive furnishing projects for architecturally strong homes that require deeper layering and personalization. The scale may vary, but the design rigor remains consistent.
DO YOU TAKE ON COMMERCIAL OR HOSPITALITY PROJECTS?
While Scott Formby Design is primarily focused on luxury residential interiors, we selectively take on commercial and hospitality projects when the scope aligns with our design approach. This may include boutique retail environments, private offices, or hospitality spaces that benefit from a residential
sensibility and material depth. Each commercial project is approached with the same rigor and attention to detail as our residential work.
WHAT DEFINES YOUR APPROACH AS A RESIDENTIAL INTERIOR DESIGNER?
Our interiors balance architectural clarity with warmth and material depth. We value craftsmanship, provenance, and the integration of vintage, contemporary, and bespoke elements. Each home reflects the client’s perspective while maintaining a strong design framework — resulting in layered, thoughtful interiors that feel enduring rather than trend-driven.
DO YOU DESIGN CUSTOM FURNITURE AND SOURCE UNIQUE PIECES?
Yes. Custom furniture design and curated sourcing are central to our projects. We collaborate with artisans and fabricators in Los Angeles, New York, and internationally to develop bespoke pieces aligned with the architecture of the home.
ARE YOU INVOLVED DURING RENOVATION OR CONSTRUCTION?
When a project includes renovation or new construction, we collaborate with architects and contractors to ensure the design intent is fully realized. For furnishing-focused projects, our emphasis centers on spatial planning, proportion, and curated integration of furnishings and art.
