What a Design-Build Firm in Scottsdale Delivers (2026)
A design-build firm in Scottsdale manages both your interior design and your licensed construction under a single contract, so one team is accountable for the entire project from concept through final installation. Living with Lolo is a Scottsdale design-build firm led by Lauren Lerner, who holds both an interior design credential and Arizona General Contractor License ROC #347577. That dual credential lets us pull permits, manage every licensed trade, and protect the design intent through construction on high-end Scottsdale homes. It is the same standard that has made Living with Lolo a leading luxury interior designer Scottsdale homeowners trust with their most ambitious builds.
We bring an award-winning design approach, named Best Interior Design by Phoenix Magazine three consecutive years (2024, 2025, and 2026), alongside a licensed Arizona General Contractor credential (ROC #347577) that allows us to manage every aspect of your project under one roof.
For Scottsdale projects that involve construction alongside design, read about why working with a licensed design-build firm matters on high-end estates and what permitted renovation work requires in Arizona. Our interior design cost guide covers real project investment ranges for the Scottsdale luxury market.

Who We Work With Here
Designed for the Scottsdale Design-Build Client
Our design-build clients in Scottsdale are operating at the highest levels: C-suite executives, retired professional athletes, and entrepreneurs running multiple businesses across multiple time zones. They are not looking for someone to show them Pinterest boards. They are looking for a trusted partner who will take complete ownership of their home transformation and deliver results they never have to second-guess.
Many of our clients in this area travel extensively and are not in Scottsdale full-time. They hand the project to us when they leave and walk back into a completely finished, fully furnished home when they return. That is the Living with Lolo standard.

Our Differentiator
Interior Design + Licensed General Contractor, Under One Roof
Most Scottsdale homeowners undertaking a design-build project are planning significant structural work, not just decorating. New additions, reconfigured floor plans, kitchen expansions, wine cellars, home theaters, and resort-style outdoor living spaces that require a licensed contractor, not just a designer with a vision board.
Lauren Lerner and Living with Lolo are one of the few full-service interior design firms in Scottsdale that is also a licensed Arizona General Contractor (ROC #347577). This means you sign one contract. You have one point of contact. Your designer and your contractor are the same entity: no communication gap, no finger-pointing, and no cost overruns from miscommunication between trades.
Living with Lolo also brings this integrated approach to mountain properties. For clients planning a ski home renovation in Utah, see the complete guide to luxury interior design for Park City ski homes.
