A design studio where neuroscience informs creativity and people come first.
Aray designs environments that support human behavior, emotion, and well-being. Our work integrates neurological design principles, licensed technical expertise, and collaborative leadership to create spaces that perform intelligently and feel intuitively right.
Aray Design Studio designs environments that shape behavior, emotion, and well-being.
Our work is guided by intention, empathy, and a deep understanding of how the built environment influences people at every level.
What sets us apart isn’t just what we create it’s how we think, plan, and lead each project from the inside out.

A boutique design studio isn’t defined by size, it’s defined by depth of involvement and quality of leadership.
Some clients worry that a smaller studio means limited capability. In reality, it means greater accountability, clearer communication, and senior-level attention throughout the entire project.
At Aray, our team is intentionally small so we can provide direct, one-on-one support from experienced designers at every phase of the project lifecycle.
This means:
Boutique also means flexibility with structure.
Rather than forcing projects into a one-size-fits-all scope, Aray provides full-cycle interior design services tailored to each client’s goals, constraints, and ambitions. Our role is to deliver exactly what your project requires, no more, no less.
This adaptable, full-cycle approach allows us to scale thoughtfully supporting projects from early strategy through completion while maintaining the same level of care, rigor, and accountability regardless of size or complexity.
At Aray, design starts with people. We apply neurological design principles to understand how environments influence behavior, emotion, and performance so every space supports how it’s actually used.
Our work is intentionally designed to support:
The result is spaces that don’t just look good they feel right. Calm when calm is needed. Energizing when momentum matters. Welcoming, intuitive, and aligned with the experience you want people to have.
Few interior design studios apply neuroscience and psychology with technical rigor. This is where Aray leads.
At Aray Design Studio, neurological design principles inform every decision. We evaluate how the built environment directly influences human response, including:
This is where Aray stands apart creating environments that are scientifically informed, aesthetically refined, and intentionally tuned to human needs.
Aray Design Studio brings deep experience across highly regulated and performance-driven environments, including:
This breadth of experience allows us to recognize patterns others miss how people move, feel, and function across different settings. We carry those insights forward into every project, creating environments that are informed, adaptable, and designed to perform under real-world conditions.
Aray brings a construction-informed approach to interior design grounded in Annette's decades of project management experience and leadership as a COO within a construction company.
This perspective gives our studio clear command of:
Our drawings are buildable, our details are trusted, and our process reduces risk at every stage. Clients and contractors consistently describe our projects as clear, coordinated, and noticeably less stressful to deliver.
Aray Design Studio is a fully licensed interior design studio with deep expertise in regulated and high-risk environments. Code, safety, and compliance are embedded into every phase of our work, not treated as an afterthought.
Our expertise includes:
The result is more than a beautiful space. It’s an environment that is safe, compliant, buildable, and prepared for long-term use protecting your people, your investment, and your project timeline.
At Aray, collaboration isn’t casual, it’s structured. Every project is led as a partnership, with clear communication, defined roles, and transparency at every stage.
We coordinate closely with:
This integrated approach keeps teams aligned and decisions moving forward. You’re never left guessing, your scope, schedule, and next steps are always clear.
No two projects are identical. That’s why we never design from templates.
At Aray Design Studio, every project begins with a clear understanding of what truly matters:
We design from the inside out so every decision is intentional, aligned, and purpose-driven.
Interior design has a measurable impact on how people feel, focus, and function. At Aray Licensed Interior Design Studio, we design environments that actively support:
Design isn’t neutral it shapes behavior and experience. We take that responsibility seriously, creating environments that help people thrive, not just occupy space.
