Get to Know
Mariella Cruzado

Since I was young, growing up in Lima Peru, I have always believed that everyone should be able to live their fullest, best lives, surrounded by beauty and inspiration. In 2016, I stepped away from a world of international development to pursue my passion for interiors. My goal is to help our clients discover how they can live their best lives everyday.

My team and I are dedicated to creating an exceptional, delicious experience for you to enjoy every step of the way. There’s a reason why you are here. Send me a note, I want to be part of your journey!

You deserve a home you truly love.

Mariella has been named a member of Thom Filicia's Style Squad for Design Edge, one of the DC's 'hottest young designers' by Modern Luxury, a 'Style Maker' by Better Homes & Gardens, and nominated as a 'Rising Star' by the Fashion Group International.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

True professionals! While we were out of town, Splendor Styling handled all the furniture and accessory deliveries, oversaw painters and installers, and made the transformation of a bare-bones apartment seamless. When we finally returned to DC, we were able to immediately feel settled in our new, gorgeous space. Can't recommend them enough!

“ From the beginning, Mariella captured the idea that I had in my mind and turned it into an integral remodeling where she took care of even the smallest detail. Good taste, modern, personal and professional treatment and fully updated with everything new in the world of interior design."
— RC.

“Mariella’s design thoughtfully blended elements of both my husband and my personal styles, successfully incorporated a few key pieces of furniture and accessories we already had and was totally polished and cohesive. The final result was better than I could ever have imagined. We love the compliments from our friends too)!”
— A.M

“Mariella offered more than I had hoped for. She really probed my tastes and my desires. She found inspiration from my art collection and had me involved from start to finish. Perhaps her greatest gift is the way she makes you feel. When my home was finished; I was beyond amazed."
— M.G.
