About Us

 

ABOUT THE COMPANY

 

William Caligari Interiors is a full service commercial and residential Interior Design firm. Our cross-disciplinary approach results in an uncommon level of refinement to our residential work and allows us to create commercial spaces imbued with warmth and spirit.

We adore the details - We respect the budget.
We design to suit your tastes, requirements and lifestyle and create living spaces that are both pragmatic and beautiful.

Our secret?  Being client driven, we listen to our clients.
We ask questions, take notes and shape our plans accordingly. Once our understanding of the client is in focus, we proceed with confidence.

Our design process is based on the idea that seeing is believing. From conceptual sketches, to renderings, CAD drawings, models, etc. we create visuals that make our design accessible. Creating a series of iterations of an idea gives our design team and client a common reference point for discussion and development. The design becomes tighter and more honed to the requirements of the project without losing the freshness and creative spark of its inception.


HISTORY
William Caligari Interiors was founded in 1989 as Lenox Design Resources. In 2004 we changed our name to more succinctly reflect our services and to align our brand with the name of our founder and Managing Principal, William Caligari.

From a modest beginning with two people and a skeleton facility we have grown and enjoy an office resplendent with equipment, software and resources. We have established a healthy three tier management structure which enables us to operate with maximum efficiency and innovation.

We bring to you a wealth of experience, award winning designs and a bank of clients with whom we maintain long term relationships.

  • 85% of the work we do comes through referral or repeat business.
  • Designer of record for Canyon Ranch - over the past 12 years we have designed numerous aspects of both the Lenox and Tucson properties.
  • The Orchards, in Williamstown, MA, a Preferred Properties hotel was awarded the prestigious Five Star Award, following the renovation designed by Lenox Design, making it one of only two Five Star hotels in Massachusetts.
