Richard opened an interior design and furniture showroom in Palm Desert in 2015 where customers can purchase furniture, furnishings and lighting. He doesn’t get caught up in trends but creates an individual style for each client.
His lavish, diverse residential designs and furnishings have led Richard to design projects throughout the Palm Springs area, Orange County and Washington State. He has a full team of employees and contractors who work behind the scenes to ensure your project is professionally completed on schedule.
Richard’s curiosity and passion for design came at an early age. He was born and raised in Sacramento—a fourth generation member of a family specializing in construction and architecture. He grew up on construction sites and had a drafting table at 11 years old. He spent his teenage years studying floor plans and drawing his own designs.
His passion for design led him to obtain an interior design degree from Sacramento State in 2007. During college, he discovered a passion for the desert when his family bought a vacation home in La Quinta. Following his first visit, he spent as much time possible in the desert and eventually relocated to the Palm Springs area in 200X.
In a little over a decade, Richard has earned many accolades including making the 40 Under Forty list for Palm Springs Life Magazine.
