OUR STORY

OUR STORY

Founded in 2013 by Michele Spadavecchia, Asta Design Group was built on the belief that exceptional interiors should do more than look beautiful…they should enrich the way people live, work, heal, and connect.

As an award-winning boutique interior design studio, we specialize in luxury healthcare, wellness, hospitality, commercial environments, and thoughtfully designed residences. Every project begins with a deep understanding of our client's vision, goals, and the people who will experience the space. We believe that great design is equal parts creativity, strategy, and purpose.

Our aesthetic is refined, timeless, and rooted in wellness. Through the thoughtful use of natural materials, tactile textures, layered lighting, and carefully considered space planning, we create environments that feel welcoming, calming, and effortlessly functional. Every detail is intentionally selected to support not only the beauty of a space, but also the emotional experience it creates.

What truly sets Asta Design Group apart is our collaborative approach. We work closely with our clients, architects, builders, consultants, and trusted manufacturers from concept through completion, ensuring every decision supports the overall vision while maintaining the highest level of craftsmanship and execution.

As lifelong students of design, our team continually invests in professional education, national design exhibitions, and manufacturer training to remain at the forefront of evolving products, materials, technologies, and industry best practices. This commitment allows us to deliver thoughtful, forward-thinking solutions tailored to each client's unique needs.

At Asta Design Group, we believe every project has the power to transform a space, elevate experiences, strengthen businesses, support well-being, and improve everyday life. That philosophy continues to guide everything we create.

For Michele Spadavecchia, interior design has always been more than a profession, it has been a lifelong passion. As a child, she spent countless hours sketching furniture, designing homes, and instinctively arranging rooms long before she knew the term space planning. After briefly studying accounting at Fairleigh Dickinson University, Michele followed her passion and enrolled at the prestigious New York School of Interior Design (NYSID), where she discovered the perfect balance of creativity, technical expertise, and purposeful design.

Michele began her career at a New York City design firm before working alongside respected New Jersey designers, gaining valuable experience across residential and commercial projects. In 2013, she founded what is known today as Asta Design Group.

Today, Michele leads the award-winning Asta Design Group, a boutique interior design studio specializing in large-scale healthcare facilities, hospitality, wellness, full-scale home renovations, and new construction.
