Indoor Outdoor Living Starts with Architecture: Seamless Design from Floorplan to Finish

By Sam Fratantoni • November 27, 2025

Luxury homes are no longer defined only by what happens inside. In today’s most exclusive estates, the outdoor spaces are just as important as the interiors. True indoor outdoor living begins at the architectural level, long before the first piece of furniture is placed or the landscape is installed. At Fratantoni Design, we specialize in creating custom floorplans that blur the line between indoors and out, crafting homes that feel connected to their surroundings while offering the highest level of comfort, beauty, and function.

Designing for Sloped Lots: Architectural Solutions for Challenging Terrain

By Sam Fratantoni • November 20, 2025

Designing a luxury home on a sloped lot presents both a challenge and an opportunity. While uneven terrain can create design complexities, it also allows for one-of-a-kind architecture that blends seamlessly into the land and maximizes views in a way flat sites simply cannot. At Fratantoni Design, we specialize in crafting luxury residences on some of the most demanding lots across the country, including a Hawaii estate we designed perched dramatically on the edge of a cliff. These are the types of projects that demand creativity, precision, and a deep understanding of topography. With over 40 years of architectural expertise, our team is highly experienced in transforming sloped lots into structurally sound, visually breathtaking custom homes.

The Evolution of Luxury Staircase Design in Modern Architecture

By Sam Fratantoni • November 12, 2025

In luxury residential architecture, few architectural features make a statement as powerfully as a beautifully designed staircase. A staircase is no longer only a functional element that connects levels of a home. In high end custom homes, it has become a sculptural centerpiece, a structural masterpiece, and a defining architectural moment. At Fratantoni Design, staircases play an essential role in the overall design narrative, setting the tone for elegance, scale, and craftsmanship throughout the home. As luxury architecture continues to evolve, staircase design has transformed into one of the most expressive features in modern estate homes.
