ABOUT US

Ariel Okin is the founder of her eponymous New York-based firm, Ariel Okin Interiors, specializing in luxury projects across the country. Known for creating warm, livable and elegant spaces, with an edited, contemporary and practical approach, Okin employs a deft use of color, an emphasis on clean lines, and a mix of bespoke and antique items. No two projects are alike; Ariel believes every home should reflect its owner.

Okin has been named to prestigious industry lists such as House Beautiful’s Next Wave, Architectural Digest's Pro List, Luxe’s Gold List, House & Garden UK's Gold List, and Better Homes & Gardens Color Star. Her first book with Rizzoli, "The Happy Home: Layered Interiors for Joyful Living", is a best-selling monograph that deep dives into the firm's last decade of work. 

Ariel and AOI's projects have been profiled in Architectural Digest, Elle Decor, Domino, Vogue, The Wall Street Journal, and New York Magazine, among others. A longtime contributing writer at Vogue, Okin also helms her own media company, Fenimore Lane, an editorial and e-commerce site, and hosts the design podcast, Talk Shop: A Fenimore Lane Production. Ariel lives in the suburbs of New York with her husband, two daughters, and their dog, Charlie.
