Brown Design Group

In a word ‘INCREDIBLE’. We were looking for a design partner for a major home renovation. After exploring multiple design agencies we were lucky to discover Brown Design. Their portfolio speaks for itself. In terms of design and creativity there is no better team than Brown. Their sense of style, quality and innovation is second to none. From our very first meeting to 'On-Time' and 'On-Budget' completion, Brown Design was a ‘partner’ in every sense of the word. They made the complex process of home renovation easy by always being transparent and honest. They listen and take on board client ideas but also know when to push back based on their experience, city regulations, time and budget. The entire team at Brown Design are very professional. Always on time, honest, reliable SUPER-CREATIVE and importantly great to work with! In closing, I HIGHLY recommend Brown Design, we feel blessed to have been able to work with them. Marcus Rosie

We had an amazing experience working with Diego and Erin from the Brown Design Group. They helped us remodel two houses from the studs to a beautifully finished houses. They were with us at every step and decision. They always had thoughtful input on an array of points from accents to lighting to the layout of the house. Nothing was too big or small. No meeting too tedious - they were always available and ready. After about a year of work on each house, they would then ask us to leave so they could stage the house and have it completely decorated. Unbelievable. They really learn your style and taste and make the entire house feel like a dream. I don’t hesitate to recommend Brown Design Group and know we would call them again if another project arose.

Three residential + two commercial projects over eight years = perfection. Diego and the entire Brown Design Team are the best real estate partners when hoping to build unexpected value in totally different spaces. No cookie cutter signature “look”. Each project has its own appreciated personality. Costs are valued and any designer ego is left at the door. They have exceeded our expectations over and over again.

My wife and I worked with Diego and Brown Design group to do a full gut remodel of our 5,000 sq/ft home. From the start Diego was the visionary behind bringing back to life our mid-century home, making it visually stunning and also feel like home for our young family. It was uniquely challenging in that we did not hire an architect, but put our trust in Brown Design group to guide the ship. They exceeded our expectations and we look forward to working with them again and again.

Not only did Diego and Erin come up with fantastic ideas - they were kind enough to make me think that those ideas were what I had in mind all along! They are creative, collaborative, enthusiastic and so fun to spend time with. I would recommend them to everyone!

Inutuitve, quick to respond and efficient. Wonderful to work with from start to the beautiful finish! They have earned my highest recommendation.

We worked with Diego on our new kitchen. He came to the project late, but his input was critical to getting the finished look we wanted. He made sure the new kitchen and media centered blended into the old Spanish design of the house's architecture. They are efficient and responsive, a good choice for a design team. Diego also spent an afternoon rehanging our artwork throughout the house. He was fun to work with and created a whole new look for the art collection.

We have worked with Brown Design Group for many years on multiple projects. Not only is Ryan an outstanding interior designer, he has a real understanding of the complexities of construction and everything that is involved. We've always found him and his team to be very professional, not to mention extremely talented. They consistently produce beautiful and original designs with amazing attention to detail and a style that is always unique whilst universally pleasing. Sincerely, Lawrence Woodcraft, Architect & Astra Woodcraft, Architect

I'm thrilled to be writing a review for Ryan Brown and Brown Design Group team, whom I've known and worked with several times over the years. Ryan and his design team are impressive on so many levels. Their design aesthetic is both relevant and timeless with a strong sense of earthy, thoughtful sophistication. They are incredibly professional, dependable, and a pleasure to work with. I have referred them countless times over the years and the results have never been less than remarkable.

Brown Design Group, Ryan Brown, are perfection. Their sophisticated, eclectic, modern and organic style is a brilliant combination of one of a kind things, found objects and custom pieces. Brown Design Group goes beyond construction, paint and furniture - they provide a "lifestyle." Mr. Brown was able to execute our collaborative vision on time, on budget and in a stress free, light-hearted, professional manner. Our French/Tudor home was built in 1938 and is located in Hollywood, California. Ryan and his firm helped us update the house after we purchased it in 2013. His vast experience in design and construction was a huge benefit to our project because he was able to provide us with endless, traditional and innovative ideas to personalize our home. Not to mention, his industry experience and contacts enabled him to be efficient, effective and decisive, which made our working relationship very pleasant. BDG are detail oriented, highly creative, generous and inventive. Their work is second to none. In conclusion, I would highly recommend Brown Design Group and will use them on all future projects.

Diego and Brown Design Group (BDG) were with us every step of the way during our gut renovation and transformation of a 1958 ranch home into a contemporary California ocean home. They very quickly understood our desired style and brought it to life in the layout, finishes and furniture within our budget. Our construction contractor was great, but we only truly hired them because Diego was present in our first meeting and "clicked" with us right away. We trust Diego and team for all of our design needs. Great work!!

I worked with Brown Design Group after we relocated to Santa Barbara. They were amazing! I had 2 entire houses of furniture arriving from the east coast and they spent 1 week organizing and sorting and putting into place everything! In one week's time my house was totally gorgeous. This company is highly professional, always prompt and gets the job done! In fact, I hired them again to help when my family relocated back to NYC. I would hire them again and again!
