Commercial & Residential Interior Architectural Design

Angela Prater Design creates thoughtfully resolved interior architecture for commercial workplaces and distinctive residences. Through disciplined planning and careful attention to detail, we shape environments that balance beauty, function, and lasting quality.

Our Process

  • Office Space Planning

    Phase 1 – Programming & Space Planning

    We define project goals, operational requirements, and site constraints, translating them into a clear and efficient spatial framework.

  • Office Concept & Design Development

    Phase 2 – Concept & Design Development

    We develop the architectural vision — shaping form, materiality, lighting, and detail to align with brand identity, function, and context.

  • Office Design Material & Systems Specification

    Phase 3 – Material & Systems Specification

    We select and coordinate all finishes, fixtures, equipment, lighting, plumbing, millwork, and technical elements to ensure cohesive performance and design integrity.

  • Office Design Construction Documentation

    Phase 4 – Construction Documentation

    We produce comprehensive construction documents and specifications for accurate bidding, permitting, and code-compliant execution.

  • Office Construction Administration

    Phase 5 – Construction Administration

    We collaborate with contractors and consultants throughout construction, reviewing submittals and site conditions to ensure the design is executed precisely as intended.

  • Office Corridor

    Phase 6 – Furnishings & Installation

    We specify and coordinate furnishings, artwork, and accessories, overseeing procurement and installation to complete the project with clarity and cohesion.

We do not impose a signature style

COMMERCIAL

Every commercial project is shaped by our client’s brand identity, organizational culture, and operational priorities — as well as the experience they intend to deliver. Through disciplined interior architecture, we integrate workflow, technical coordination, and built context to create environments that are efficient, refined, and purpose-driven.

ResidentIAL

Each residential project emerges from careful listening — shaped by our client’s vision, aesthetic sensibilities, architectural context, and the way they live within the space. The result is a home that feels authentic, cohesive, and distinctly their own.

  • “Angela took our ideas and early sketches for our new home and led us through the entire design, permitting, bidding, and construction process. She took the time to understand and deliver on our vision while ensuring that our dream home could be constructed in a cost-effective manner. She brought ideas and concepts we would not have imagined on our own. She was extremely responsive and worked well with our builder and others involved in the final package. We strongly encourage anyone looking for a full-service designer to contact Angela.”

  • “I had the pleasure of working with Angela on a high-end condominium project in Blaine, WA. Angela put together an elegant interior design package in all areas of the condos, including construction documents for all finishes, fixtures, cabinetry, appliances, lighting, and hardware. Her attention to detail and being able to deliver an outstanding finished product was one of the main reasons for the successful sale of the properties. I would highly recommend Angela!”

  • "Angela was a pleasure to work with throughout the whole process of relocating my practice. She guided me through the space planning phase, drew up the construction plans, and procured all the products. Her ability to know which colors, finishes, and designs work together is truly a gift. She worked seamlessly with my contractor and was very aware of the budget we had set. I confidently recommend using Angela for any project you may have.”
