about ARIEL

Ariel Okin is the founder of her eponymous firm, Ariel Okin Interiors, a New York-based, full-service interior design firm specializing in luxury residential, commercial, and hospitality projects across the country. Ariel’s signature style can be interpreted as “traditional with a twist” – warm, livable and elegant spaces, with an edited, contemporary and practical approach. A deft use of color, emphasis on clean lines, and mix of bespoke and antique items are hallmarks of her aesthetic, yet no two projects are alike; Ariel believes every home should reflect its owner.

Ariel is an internationally recognized interior designer, whose work has been named to prestigious industry lists such as House Beautiful’s Next WaveBetter Homes & Gardens Color Star, Architectural Digest's Pro List and House & Garden UK's “The List”, as well as being featured and profiled in Architectural Digest, Elle Decor, House Beautiful, Domino, Vogue, The Wall Street Journal, and New York Magazine, among others.

Ariel has launched several collaborative product lines in the home and fashion spaces, including wallpaper collections with Chasing Paper and The Mural Source, a lighting line with Mitzi, accessories and decor with One Kings Lane, fashion and travel accessories with Neely & Chloe, and more.

Separate from her design work, Ariel helms her editorial and e-commerce site, Fenimore Lane, where she is Editor in Chief. She also hosts Fenimore Lane's popular design podcast, "Talk Shop", and leads Fenimore Lane's annual design summit at The Mayflower Inn & Spa. In addition to her work with Fenimore Lane, Ariel is a contributing writer to Vogue.com, Architectural Digest and Domino, and her first interior design book will debut with Rizzoli in the spring of 2026. 

Current residential projects range across the country, from Greenwich, CT, and Cape Cod, MA, to Palm Beach, FL, and Oyster Bay, NY, among others. Ariel lives in Westchester, NY, with her husband, two daughters, and dog, Charlie.
