Natalie Miano


Design Assistant

A San Diego native, Natalie recently returned home after working with boutique interior design studios in San Francisco and Marin County. She holds a bachelor’s degree in business and marketing from Sonoma State and began her career at a tech company before pursuing her longtime dream of interior design. Along the way, she developed a deep appreciation for thoughtful, highly personalized residential design and a love for defining spaces that elevate the mood the moment you enter. 

At the Studio, Natalie develops design concepts and sources finishes, lighting, furniture, and fabrics. She also coordinates with vendors and prepares client presentations. She has a particular passion for custom furniture, designing pieces around the way each client lives. For Natalie, these pieces are an opportunity to bring personality, purpose, and individuality to a home.

Her design style is warm, collected, and timeless with a little surprise, blending traditional and modern pieces with natural materials and texture. That sense of surprise shines in her favorite spaces, powder rooms and studies, where clients often feel free to step outside the expected and embrace bold choices. 

Outside the Studio, Natalie loves spending time with family, friends, and her boyfriend. On weekends, you can find her in the ocean, out on a hike, or trying the newest restaurants, especially ones with live music.
