Our Process
Our process starts with the first conversation and continues through move-in, guided by a deep understanding of client goals and site-specific opportunities
Listen & Collaborate
The success of Flavin projects is rooted in strong relationships and true collaboration. Through our process, we learn how our clients live day to day and translate those insights into a tailored vision—designing homes that reflect and support their lives.
Envision & Design
As construction nears completion, Casa reviews the details to ensure everything aligns with our design vision. We then install furnishings and finishes—bringing your dream space to life.
Partner & Build
In this creative phase, Casa Interiors develops floor plans, layouts, custom furnishings, and material suggestions. We present finishes, millwork details, and 3D visuals—collaborating closely to finalize every selection.

Collaborative flow.
We integrate all processes, oversee the team, and make key decisions to ensure the timeline and budget are seamlessly executed.
01Research
We take time to understand your lifestyle, values, and aspirations — gathering insights that guide every decision ahead. Through conversations, site visits, and contextual studies, we build a clear foundation for a space that reflects not just how you live, but how you want to feel in your home.

Minnaro was founded out of a shared desire to create spaces that feel as good as they look — honest, balanced, and deeply personal.
With a foundation in interior architecture and product design, the studio connects people to their environments through refined, purposeful design.
Every project begins with listening. We take the time to understand daily rhythms, personal values, and individual style. From that, we shape tailored interiors that reflect who you are — spaces that work quietly, beautifully, and intuitively.
