Sarasota & Anna Maria Island Interior Designer

Mia Bella Designs serves homeowners in Sarasota, Longboat Key, Lakewood Ranch, Anna Maria Island, Holmes Beach and Bradenton Beach. Led by interior designer Michele Riley, who brings more than 25 years of experience in interior design and space planning, the studio creates interiors that feel calm, elevated and deeply livable. Every project is a collaboration, guided by quality, simplicity and lasting beauty.

This stretch of the Gulf Coast holds a wide range of homes, from island cottages and beach houses to newer residences inland, and each calls for its own approach. Near the water, natural materials, soft color and durable finishes suit the salt air and bright sun, while inland homes may invite richer texture and a more tailored mix. The goal is an interior that feels true to the architecture around it and to the way you live.

Full interior design, kitchen and bath design, color consultation, new builds and vacation rental design are all available here, supported by a design plan that shows each piece in your space before you buy. Michele sources to-the-trade furnishings you will not find online and, for sellers, provides certified home staging guided by her eight-step FEEL HOME method. Clients who divide their time between homes can work through E-Design, with mood boards, floor plans, color schemes and curated shopping lists delivered wherever they are.
