TESTIMONIALS

 
Working with RBDC is like having a Design Guardian Angel to direct and execute on all aspects of a project. Beginning with initial conception and architectural inspiration, the General Designer (GD) method facilitates collaboration between architectural design and General Contractors according to clients specific needs. This process is comparable to the way subcontractors work under the direction of a General Contractor. General Designer services support client decision making and communication with the Architect and General Contractor by overseeing the project as a whole and at a higher client centric level. Clients benefit from the watchful eye of RBDC’s designers who gets to know the client on a deeper level ideally before the project begins. This early stage focus on client priorities, function and overall budget enables solid project planning. GD project management often results in better direction to the Architect and GC saving time and money.

As the project gets underway, GD services can then support client decision making and direction to the Architect and General Contractor team to produce the best client centric result. Clients are expected to make architectural design decisions and respond to GC requests throughout the project. Without the support of a General Designer service, those decisions are often hastily made without realizing that the ultimate outcome may not meet function and budget needs. RBDC fills the void to give sound support and guidance to homeowners from the very beginning often enabling the Architect and GC to stay on track and on budget.

The General Designer services are invaluable to home design or renovation. Having worked with RBDC on several large projects, I can not imagine doing this work without the GD method. Not only were the final products wonderful, but the homes met my specific needs and the processes were a pleasure. I will forever be grateful to the RBDC designer for her ability to direct my renovations in a way that maximized the use of space for my family’s needs, kept the architectural and General Contractor teams in good spirits and the work moving forward. Job well done and outstanding project results. Thank you so much !!

I had a great experience working with Amy. She understood my vision by asking questions, reviewing endless pictures and generally being so interested in what I was doing. She was invested as much as I was in making my new space inviting and welcoming to my patients with just the right amount of wow. She’s incredibly talented . She was so willing to work within my budget even discussing with me what could wait until phase 2 of the design so not to stress my finances. She is comfortable and confident working in every aspect of the job! So excited to see her flourish in this arena.

I waited too long to hire an interior designer. I spent countless hours and money decorating on my own, picking paints and moldings and now I come to realize that those were not the right choices. Having an interior designer helped me look at my own house from different angles. It made me make the right choices that works well decoratively and also has been cost effective.
