L.A. is a Florida-licensed interior designer known for his contemporary style and collaboration with Italian manufacturers. He holds a Master of Interior Architecture from Chatham University and a BSBA in management and marketing. His global studies have shaped his passion for sustainable design.

Q: Tell us a little about your background.

A: I decided to pursue a career in interior design after completing my studies in business and earning a master’s degree in interior architecture. The interplay between my left- and right-brained capabilities has been crucial to my success. My left brain’s logical thinking and analytical skills are essential for technical aspects of design, such as space planning, budgeting, and ensuring functionality. Meanwhile, my right brain’s creativity, intuition, and artistic vision enable me to craft unique concepts and create aesthetically pleasing environments. By integrating both sides, I maintain a balanced approach to interior design, ensuring that my work is practical and creatively inspired.

With over a decade of experience, I have built a strong reputation in Naples for my attention to detail and innovative approach. I founded Hudson Park Interior Design to fully realize my vision and offer exceptional, personalized design solutions.

Q: What style do you like to design the most?

A: My passion lies in contemporary design, emphasizing simplicity, functionality, and an intimate connection to the natural environment. It’s about creating uncluttered, adaptable spaces that reflect the client’s story and take everyday living from ordinary to extraordinary. Starting with contemporary principles allows me to seamlessly blend in other styles, crafting custom-tailored designs that speak to personal experiences and style, as well as stand the test of time. For me, it’s about more than just aesthetics; it’s about shaping spaces that resonate with the client’s journey and enhance their daily experiences.

Q: What project are you most proud of?

A: I am fortunate to have built a portfolio that showcases a myriad of styles, but the project that has garnered the most significant interest and has become a centerpiece of our work is our project in Olde Naples. Over the past year, we have successfully completed four diverse and inspiring projects, each a testament to our unwavering commitment to excellence and our passion for creating beautiful, functional spaces. It’s deeply rewarding to see our designs celebrated so publicly, and it reinforces our dedication to pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in interior design.

Q: Why do you enjoy bringing customers to UMI Stone?

A: Bringing clients to UMI Stone is always a pleasure because of their alignment with our values of quality, exclusivity, and exceptional service. UMI’s selection of materials, from rare natural stones to innovative engineered options, provides the perfect palette for creating spaces that are both luxurious and uniquely personalized. I trust UMI to deliver the high standards my clients expect, ensuring that every detail reflects our shared commitment to superior craftsmanship.

Q: What is your favorite product UMI carries?

A: My favorite product that UMI carries is their selection of natural stones. I appreciate natural stones for their inherent beauty, originality, and enduring quality. Each stone is unique, with its own distinctive patterns and textures that add character and elegance to any space. Among their offerings, I’m particularly drawn to the subtle, sophisticated tones that seamlessly blend classic and contemporary design elements. Infinity excels in replicating natural stones with engineered materials, providing an excellent alternative solution for a project.

Q: What do you enjoy doing in your free time?

A: In my free time, I embrace the vibrant lifestyle of Florida, whether it’s through exploring the outdoors, indulging in a good book, or spending quality time with my dogs, Hudson and Parker, who bring a great deal of joy to my life. I have a passion for travel, which continuously inspires my design philosophy, allowing me to infuse diverse cultural elements into my work. These experiences enrich my approach, providing fresh perspectives and a wellspring of inspiration that I bring back to my clients, ensuring that their spaces are infused with a sense of global sophistication and personal resonance.
