Daniela Araya Color + Design is a full-service interior design studio led by Daniela Araya, built around a feeling-first approach and a particular gift for color. We design with color first, function always, and nothing that's just for show. Rooms with a strong enough point of view to take you somewhere you couldn't have arrived at alone.

✶ Named one of Apartment Therapy's New/Next Designers for 2026

Color is the fastest way to make a space feel alive. Beautiful is fine. Alive is better.

We take on projects at every scale, from a single color and material direction to a fully designed home, room by room. Based in the Hudson Valley and working nationwide, we use the same process wherever you are: curiosity first, then a plan you can actually trust.

Let's Work Together

"Daniela is an incredibly talented designer, but what truly sets her apart is the way she makes you feel. From the very beginning, I felt completely at ease, like I was in the hands of someone who genuinely got me. She brought warmth, clarity, and joy to the entire process, and I trusted her every step of the way. My home is more beautiful because of her, but so was the experience of creating it."
