Rebecca Ryan Design

My husband and I met with Rebecca in January 2022 to talk about a remodeling project for our kitchen and back-entry way. One of the first things we shared with her is that we wanted the kitchen to look different. She wrote that in big letters across the top of her tablet. She definitely knocked the design out of the park! It is absolutely gorgeous, and we could not be happier with the design that she created. Rebecca took a lot of time discussing the former design with us to understand what we did and didn't like. The design that she provided is extremely functional, well thought out, and unique. We worked with Rebecca in 2018 on a bathroom remodel project, and she was so much fun to work with and a wealth of knowledge. When we decided we were ready to embark on another remodel project in our home - there wasn't any question about who we wanted to work with and that is Rebecca Ryan. She made the whole process from the initial design session to the selections for tile, wall color, lighting, plumbing, and granite so much fun. Rebecca invested time prior to our selection meeting to pull together some different recommendations for cabinets, knobs, and plumbing and we absolutely LOVED everything she recommended. When we went to make our plumbing selections, the associate at the store commented about how fortunate we were to work with Rebecca because she is so talented, and I couldn't agree more. Rebecca was truly a pleasure to work with!

We did a pretty extensive main floor remodel and Rebecca was the designer on the contractor team we hired. She was one of the main reasons we chose the contractor we did and she 100% delivered on her part in the process. She worked closely with us in the design process from drawing up the vision for the kitchen to helping us pick out every finish for our space. She was patient and always gave us sound guidance from her professional opinion while at the same time allowing us to have the autonomy to choose based on our preferences. There were a few times in the process where we had hiccups related to the design and finishes we chose and she always advocated for us so well. I can't recommend her enough. We have some future projects and we will, without a doubt consult with her again.

Rebecca is an amazing designer to work with. Her ideas completed our mid-century rambler remodel. In fact she made it better. She guided us through selections and made it easy to pick the best choice within our budget. At times we took a risk and she never disappointed. We could not have asked for a better person who made a somewhat stressful project, a fun one! A+

Rebecca is a joy to work with!! We actually worked with her during a previous remodel. The experience was so great that we worked with her again on the home that we recently purchased. She was very skilled at making our unique layout (with various ceiling heights) look and function so beautifully. She listened carefully to my ideas and really took the time to understand my style. She spent the time needed with me to pick the perfect tile, flooring, lighting and everything in between. She was so proactive with all of her communication and followed up quickly when I had questions - sometimes within minutes!! I LOVE how our home turned out. It is gorgeous. It is more than I could have ever imagined. Rebecca has also become a dear friend. She is not only incredibly skilled at her craft but she is a warm and kind human. I am very fortunate to call her my friend and will absolutely work with her on my next project.

Without a doubt, my husband and I recommend Rebecca Ryan as a designer. Rebecca helped us to remodel all three levels of our home including the kitchen, master bath, main level powder room, and lower level living room and bar area, She was also instrumental in the selection of lighting throughout our entire home. From beginning to end, Rebecca was exceptionally professional, organized, resourceful, and knowledgeable. We found her to be great to work with and appreciated her ability to explain the reasoning for her recommendations. She respected our sense of style and taste, yet helped us to understand viable options that we would not have considered without her expertise. We especially appreciate the continuity of design that she created in our home. She took our "wish list" and help us to transform it into reality. In our opinion, her skill, vision, attention to detail, and great people skills make her a clear choice as a designer.

Rebecca helped with the design of our basement finishing. We had very rough ideas and an open mind in regards to our layout. She came up with very unique, creative and current ideas. Rebecca also helped with all of the design selections. Without her, it would have been very challenging to piece it all together! We interviewed several remodelers and Rebecca's services convinced us to use College City. We were not disappointed!

We had a major kitchen and bath remodel project as well as updates to our laundry/mudroom. We had a clear concept in our minds on what we wanted our dream kitchen and bath to look like, and Rebecca was able to see our vision and work through the challenges when tearing out walls and making all the elements come together as we envisioned. Rebecca is professional, creative and has a great eye. She was able to address any concerns or questions that we had throughout the process. It was a pleasure to work with her. We love our new space and we would highly recommend using Rebecca!

I can't even put into words how great of a job Rebecca has done. Before I began construction on remodeling my home, I had interviewed three different designers. The first two really didn't show as much compassion and care for their work. She happened to be the last one who came by and I am so glad I chose her. I don't think I could have even found someone else with the heart and care for how things look in a home that she has. The amount of attention to detail she puts in is incredible, all the way from start to finish. She is very good at addressing my questions and concerns in a timely manner which is very important to myself and I know to many people who have a busy lifestyle. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to remodel their kitchen, bathroom, or just home in general. You will be very glad you chose her as your designer.

Rebecca is amazing! She's helped me on two projects - a bathroom remodel and a kitchen remodel, and I've loved every aspect of the works she's done on both projects. She's been friendly, professional, creative, and cost conscious from the minute I met her through the completion of both projects. Best of all, for both projects, she helped me figure out some just-right personal touches so that while the overall room is beautiful, there is an "extra special" personal touch that makes it completely mine. In my bathroom it's the tile and design we used to create a custom border around the mirror, and in the kitchen it's the unique decorative legs on the island. Extra "little touches" that Rebecca helped design and bring to life within the overall beautiful design. I'll definitely be using Rebecca's help again!

I just had the pleasure of working with Rebecca on our entire first floor remodel, focusing on the kitchen and dining room. She was the perfect balance of listening to what we wanted as our overall concept and using her expertise to help guide us into the final product, which we could not be more pleased with. She is wonderful to work with and extremely knowledgeable in all ares of design- from the original drawings to the final touches in decorating. I highly recommend her!

Rebecca & I have collaborated on several projects over the last 8 years, but the most enjoyable projects for me have been the two she did for our own homes. Most recently, she helped transform our "contractor spec" Master Bedroom Suite into a glamorous, functional space that makes me feel like a queen. Sparkling light fixtures, a luxurious shower and a special lingerie cabinet are among the many upgrades she incorporated into the new design. Rebecca also designed a 2-sided built-in with drawers and TV space on the bedroom side, and shoe shelving & a boot rack on the closet side. Rebecca takes time at the beginning to truly understand your vision and needs for the space. Then with amazing attention to detail, she magically integrates every wish possible plus a few items you would never think of on your own. She is a pleasure to work with and you can trust her with your most important design projects.

We very much enjoyed working with Rebecca Ryan. She had good ideas and worked with us to bring our vision to reality. She did a good job of helping us understand the trade-offs of decisions and providing alternate options when needed. She was very accessible and her follow-through was outstanding. I would highly recommend using Rebecca.
