Testimonials
Clients
Our new house became a "dream home", under the care and professional guidance of Deborah and her RI INC team. Every detail was meticulously executed, and the quality of product and service was exemplary. We highly recommend RI INC for a seamless, enjoyable interior design experience.
Deborah skillfully and patiently guided us through the planning, design, tender and execution stages of our major home renovation and furnishings project. We could not be happier with the result. Deborah and her design team are very professional, collaborative, creative and fun to work with.
The renovation of our tired old whistler townhome was an all–encompassing two year project, creatively supported with energy and enthusiasm by the entire team at RI INC. The existing footprint was beautifully transformed incorporating an new open stairwell and floor plan concept, creating an incredible amount of functional space with a comfortable, balanced, modern aesthetic for our family to relax and enjoy. Renovating is work for all, but it’s also fun working with the RI INC team.
Contractors
I have worked with RI INC on several projects over the last seventeen years and always found Deborah and her team to be great to work with. They are creative, efficient, and professional. Deborah has developed an excellent system, including drawings and specifications, to convey the detailed design information to the owner and contractor. Our projects have benefited from RI INC's dedication to excellent design from start to finish.

Deborah is a real professional. She is a good communicator through her drawings and specifications. The designs are always innovative and well specified to each type of project. I would strongly recommend Deborah and her RI INC team.
President Leyland Construction

Architects
I have worked with Deborah and the RI INC team on numerous high end projects over the past 30 years. Their creativity and thoughtful attention to detail brings about well-integrated design solutions. There is always a “wow” factor that takes their projects to the next level.

Trades
Deborah and her team at RI INC design spaces for their clients that marry creativity and practicality. It is such a privilege to be engaged with a design firm that understands the many "behind the scene" elements that must be considered (wiring, lighting, plumbing, millwork, etc...) en route to the finished product.
RI INC collaborates openly and honestly with clients to ensure that their dreams become reality. With detailed building plans and a roster of exceptional trades, Deb leaves nothing to chance on her projects. She does an exceptional job of managing both the expectations of her clients and the realities of her trusted tradespeople. With a wealth of experience and exceptional taste, I highly recommend Deborah and her RI INC team!
Home Automation
Deborah and her RI INC team have been working and collaborating together with A.J. Drury Custom Millworks for some time now. Anytime we get a call from RI INC, we get excited to see what new and interesting projects that they are dreaming up. It is always a pleasure to work with Designers that you truly respect their instincts, concepts, and designs.
I tell clients that we are just the nuts and bolts guys and that the beauty is in the design (and a bit of craftsmanship). Working with RI is really working within a team. They bring the Clients wants and needs to the fore with elegance, poise and determination. Deborah and her team strongly advocate for their Clients requirements with a keen eye on the details.
