Interior Design in Short Hills, New Jersey
An established house can have beautiful bones and still be difficult to live in. The work may be about restoring a sense of order to a first floor, making a primary suite feel more personal, or introducing millwork and lighting that bring quiet coherence to rooms that have accumulated changes over time. In Short Hills, a strong result is less about display than about a home feeling fully understood.
An Essex County residential market of traditional estate homes, newer construction, and households that value fine proportion, privacy, and enduring materials. We treat that as a practical starting point. Before discussing individual finishes, we want to understand which rooms carry the most pressure, what needs to be retained, and how the completed environment should support the people who use it.

Luxury Residential Interior Design in Short Hills
We take on whole-home estate renovations and focused interior projects, including kitchens, libraries, primary suites, custom millwork, lighting, art, and furnishing plans. The design process connects architectural decisions to genuine household habits, so each room feels considered on its own and related to the house as a whole.
Whole-home estate renovation, kitchens, primary suites, libraries, custom millwork, lighting, art, and complete furnishing plans. The strongest result is not produced by a single selection. It comes from deciding how the rooms should work together, then carrying that decision into the cabinetry, light, material palette, furnishing, and detail.

- Custom kitchens

The INSABELLADESIGN Difference
Beth Insabella Walsh, ASID, IIDA, CID, founded INSABELLADESIGN in 1996. For a Short Hills engagement, the value of a principal-led practice is continuity: the design direction stays connected to the decisions about layout, materials, custom work, furnishing, and installation. The WBENC-certified woman-owned firm works with a senior team to document and coordinate the details that make a project buildable as well as beautiful.
A room feels unforced when the planning behind it is deliberate. That is the practical-luxury standard: a complete interior in which movement, comfort, maintenance, material character, and visual calm reinforce one another.

I must say it's been my pleasure to have had the opportunity to work with Beth and her team at Insabella Design. My boss has been a long time client of Beth, over 25 years. And over those many years I was fortunate enough to work with Beth directly. She is extremely attentive and knows exactly what needs to be done. She has designed numerous major renovations and reconstruction projects for us. She has always been a pleasure to work with from the beginning of the projects to the very end. If I ever needed something in a pinch she always makes it happen. I would be completely lost without her and her support in keeping my boss comfortable and happy. Thank you Beth, to you and your team for your excellent services.

How a Project Works
1. Start with a conversation
A consultation at our Little Silver studio or your property. We talk through the space, the scope, how you live or work in it, and what you want the finished project to accomplish. No obligation, and you will always be speaking with Beth.
2. Design and decisions
Space planning, materials, millwork and cabinetry design, lighting, and furnishings developed into one coherent plan, with drawings and documentation your contractor and trades can actually build from.
3. We carry it to the finish
We coordinate the trades, manage orders and timelines, and stay on the project through installation and styling, so you get a completed space rather than a plan left for you to assemble.
