“I recently had the pleasure of working with Denise Richards from DRichards Interiors to renovate my 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom condo in a high-rise, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the results. After researching several high-end interior designers, I discovered Denise, whose reputation and 40+ years of experience immediately stood out. From our first meeting, I was impressed by her professionalism and expertise. Denise has an undeniable mastery of design, and it was evident from the moment she showed me some of her past projects. I had the privilege of visiting a few showrooms with her, and I was blown away by how much she knew about each space. It was clear that Denise has an exceptional eye for detail, and she knows exactly how to transform a space into something extraordinary. Throughout the process, Denise communicated wonderfully, listening to my ideas and providing thoughtful suggestions that helped guide my decisions. She has a great talent for blending style with functionality, and her ideas were both creative and practical, which made the entire experience seamless. She presented materials that were of the highest quality, and every selection felt both appropriate and imaginative, elevating the space in ways I hadn’t even considered. Thanks to Denise's vision, my condo now feels like a luxurious, personalized retreat, and I’m beyond satisfied with the outcome. If you’re looking for a top-tier interior designer, I highly recommend DRichards Interiors – Denise truly excels in every aspect of the design process.”

“Elaine of Elaine Morrison Interiors designed and supervised our kitchen and outdoor patio remodel. We were impressed by Elaine’s genuine regard for our family’s lifestyle and personality. With an eye towards function, esthetics and entertaining; Elaine enthusiastically explained her vision of what a “Traditional Remodel” would look like. Elaine prepared scaled renderings of the proposed project as well as detailed timelines and cost projections. The contractors recommended by Elaine were professional, courteous, and talented craftsmen. Because of Elaine’s ever-present supervision, the project was seamless and the final outcome is eye-popping. Shopping with Elaine was truly an adventure. She took us to design centers and hardware stores. We visited stone fabricators and upholstery shops. We shopped for everything from delicate fabrics in Beverly Hills to stone slabs at granite yards in the San Fernando Valley. We saw every kind of stone, tile and backsplash imaginable. Wherever we went, everyone seemed to know and respect Elaine for her expertise and professionalism. We could clearly see why. The centerpiece of our remodel was the kitchen island. Elaine was able to reconfigure and expanded the island on the original footprint creating a huge amount of storage and a very large serving area. The cabinets designed by Elaine featured pull-out drawers and swing out shelves for easy access. Elaine’s cabinet maker used the highest quality hardware including pulls for all the drawers, doors, and for the wood paneled refrigerator. Elaine found a magnificent quartzite slab for the island and countertops. Next, the vent over stove was replaced by a very large and impressive stainless-steel hood. We decided on a Wolf oven, steam convection oven, countertop stove and a built-in microwave oven as well as a wine cooler. We also purchased the Sub-Zero side by side refrigerator and a Cove dishwasher. Elaine found fabulous lighting fixtures to accentuate the island and glass cabinets. Exquisite window treatments tied the family room and kitchen together. Elaine had the entertainment center in the family room updated and stained to coordinate with the kitchen. The existing travertine floors were stripped and resealed. Elaine recommended that we reupholster our existing customized furniture that were originally designed to fit the unusual geometry of the room. Elaine's imaginative vision transformed our simple barbecue into complete outdoor kitchen which featured a refrigerator, stainless-steel pull-out drawer and a sink. The Dekton countertop beautifully complimented the indoor kitchen. Elaine beautifully married design with function. Although she is high energy, Elaine has always been sensitive to our concerns, anxieties and expenses. Watching the project come to fruition has been tremendously exciting. We are grateful to Elaine for her patients, guidance and friendship.”
