She did an absolutely beautiful job designing the layout of our remodel, which included a kitchen, bathroom, office and most of our first floor. She also helped manage the overall project from selecting a contractor to selecting materials & finishes for every room. She listened to our needs at every step and was incredibly responsive. She also has a great eye for what would look good in any space. We could not be happier with our newly remodeled spaces & we will definitely hire her again for our next project! **Comment from R Titus Designs:** > Was great to work with you and your family. Can't wait for the next project! **★★★★★ — Joseph, May 2021** > Going in to our basement remodel, we thought we already knew what we wanted, but that it would be good to get some help with some detail decisions regarding materials and minor layout concerns. I realize, looking back on it, that we were out of our depth and that a professional interior designer like Robin brings so much more to the table than choosing colors or materials. The end result is fundamentally better for her involvement. She created a layout that solved functional issues with our original idea, while adding numerous details that captured the essence of what we hoped to achieve. She worked with our budget and cost concerns, provided options that fit and expanded our style, and was instrumental in communicating our choices to the contractor. A remodeling project can be overwhelming at times, and it is incredibly helpful to have an advocate every step of the way. Now or basement is an oasis of comfort and beauty, our favorite place in the house! One drawback is that we are going to have to remodel the rest of our house now **Comment from R Titus Designs:** > Thank you Joseph. You were great to work with and sorry about the rest of the house;) **★★★★★ — Esther Reisinger, May 2021** > Robin is wonderful! She was accommodating and upfront while listening to and incorporating our preferences and quirks. She is excellent at maximizing flow and functionality of a space and helped us solve dilemmas in creative ways. We are so happy with our beautiful new basement and can hardly believe it’s our space! Thank you, Robin! **★★★★★ — pattig\_winnetka, Nov. 2020** > Robin is not only an amazing interior designer but she is such a lovely person! I have truly enjoyed working with her. She helped me with my family room and formal living room, and both look spectacular. I have no sense of patterns and colors coming together, but trusting Robin’s creative eye, she helped really bring each room to life. My family room is the perfect combo of comfy and serene with sophistication. And my formal living room is like a snapshot from Parisian apartment. Robin asked me what cities I love to travel to most, and I said Paris and Rome, and she created a beautiful room with pieces of homage to each. Thank you so much Robin, and look forward to continuing to work with you as I finish my house, room by room. **Comment from R Titus Designs:** > Thank you so much Patti! You are equally lovely to work with. Looking forward to the next project:) **★★★★★ — mkmoses, May 2019** > Robin helped me to figure out furniture for an area of my living room that I had been struggling with for a long time. She did awesome renderings using virtual reality technology that allowed me to really visualize the design. Fun to work with too! **★★★★★ — Heidi Beach, Nov. 2018** > Robin designed a full kitchen remodel, two offices, powder room and mudroom in our 1876 Chicago cottage. She was amazing at combining modern elements with the traditional look of our home. We now have a brighter, more functional and colorful home. She was pleasant to work with, available and provided us with many style options to fit our taste and budget. We will definitely work with her again. **★★★★★ — User, Nov. 2016** > It was a pleasure to work with R Titus Designs on multiple projects in Massachusetts. Robin is a creative individual that is able to infuse her ascetic into any space. Her curated style brings life to forgotten pieces for a distinguished look. Robin's hospitable nature is expressed in her design with inviting and airy interiors. I highly recommend R Titus Designs! **★★★★★ — ccss18, Aug. 2016** > Robin is terrific to work with! She has listened to me to make sure every decision is something I like and am comfortable with. When it comes to planning and design, Robin is truly talented and creative. She sees things I would have never thought of! I have been happy with every stage of the project thus far and am excited about the finished product. Robin is great to work with - I never feel pressured to make a decision or spend more than I planned. She responds to emails quickly and I trust her advice 100%. Her taste is impeccable and she is on top of everything... no detail is missed. Robin makes the process enjoyable! **★★★★★ — zachary15, March 2016** > Robin is amazingly creative and delivers your vision within a budget you can afford. I have a smaller house and she recreated a flow I never would have imagined to give me more space and light. Robin is enthusiastic and incredibly approachable. She will not talk you into anything you don't want to do. Looking for a new house so I can work with Robin again! **★★★★★ — vickimowrey, March 2016** > Robin is so knowledgeable and innovative. No one could be easier to work with because she listens to her client and really gets to an understanding of what the client needs and wants. I have used Robin's services multiple times for simple redesigns and one major design of my condo living main living area. Never have I been disappointed in her work. **★★★★★ — chrisryan57, March 2015** > Robin is fantastic! She has amazing taste, and will search high and low for that exact piece or fabric you are looking for. We just spent several months looking for a living room carpet, and she persevered and kept searching until we found the most perfect option - and it was a very reasonable price! I am picky and she stuck right there with me. Robin will work with your existing pieces and give them a new lease on life - small, affordable changes that can turn a piece from outdated and sad, to amazing and modern. Within minutes in a space, she can provide you with a myriad of ideas that will transform your space. Her style is exquisite, her fabric choices spot-on, and her eye for taste is wonderful. I trust her judgement - 100%. **★★★★★ — bolongo, Nov. 2014** > I hired Robin for a new house interior design project. She chose several color palates for bedrooms, family room, dining and living room. We also shopped for furniture and accessories. Robin has an array of professionals that she works with to complete any project, such as faux painters and custom designers for drapery, bedding and reupholstery. She work within our budget and projects were completed within a reasonable time frame. I will use her again as we are in the process of relocating. ## Selected projects - [Charlotte Carriage House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/charlotte-carriage-house-pj-vj~7330961) - Location: Charlotte, NC - Photos: 12 - [Basement Renovation Haven](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/basement-renovation-haven-pj-vj~6630666) - Location: North Riverside, IL - Photos: 9 - [Comfortable family room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/comfortable-family-room-pj-vj~6630676) - Location: Winnetka, IL - Photos: 5 - [Pieds-à-terre in the suburbs](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/pieds-a-terre-in-the-suburbs-pj-vj~6630709) - Location: Winnetka, IL - Photos: 5 - [Smith Mountain Lake](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/smith-mountain-lake-pj-vj~5751889) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [Chicago Victorian Cottage](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/chicago-victorian-cottage-pj-vj~3020606) - Location: Chicago, IL - Photos: 7 - [Navy Den](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/navy-den-pj-vj~3020624) - Location: Chicago, IL - Photos: 3 - [Fun Family Dining Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/fun-family-dining-room-pj-vj~1117041) - Location: Oak Park, IL - Photos: 7 - Description: This Dining Room was barely used prior to our project. The family was looking for a formal space for dinner parties yet comfortable enough for kids meals and homework. The addition of the built-in bar broke up the room to serve multiple purposes. Custom Farm table built by a local wood worker adds warmth to the room. - [Stripes Guest Bedroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/stripes-guest-bedroom-pj-vj~605809) - Location: West Palm Beach, FL - Photos: 4 - [3D Renderings](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/3d-renderings-pj-vj~2851414) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Colonial Filled with Pattern](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/colonial-filled-with-pattern-pj-vj~1453852) - Location: Norwood, MA - Photos: 7 - [Coastal Master Bedroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/coastal-master-bedroom-pj-vj~1290554) - Location: Palm Beach, FL - Photos: 4 - Description: Feminine Coastal retreat is what the Client asked for.

Thanks,** *(in Photo Questions)* I like the cabinet color which I feel will look good with my wall color. would love to know cabinet color please? Thanks, A: I unfortunately do not have the paint color as this was a while ago. **Q: is the hood wrapped in wood or a custom metal finish? Thank you.** *(in Photo Questions)* Is it a Vent-a-hood? A: Bryndleyclaw, the hood above the range is stainless steel hood. **Q: Help with potential kitchen update** *(in Design Dilemma)* My husband and I are thinking of buying a home we have been eyeing for some time now. Last night we were looking at the kitchen through the 3D tour and discussing things we would want to change/update. Cabinets and counters would be updated but our big dilemma is the sink and dishwasher location, the stove location and this weird nook next to the fridge. I would like to put in a wall oven and cook top instead of having a range. I would also like to replace The window above the sink with a ledge or just relocate the dishwasher/sink and put an island in. If the walls cant be removed, then I would just open the window as much as much as possible. Please let me know your thoughts and design ideas. A: Agree. I would'nt stress over layouts until you find out if that wall can come down. **Q: what paint color are the cabinets** *(in Photo Questions)* What color paint are the cabinets A: HI Paula, It was an option from the cabinet shop. **Q: I’d love to know the brand of cabinet hardware! thank you!** *(in Photo Questions)* Pulls A: They are all different according to the drawer/door size. **Q: Love the shades! Where can I buy them or the fabric?** *(in Photo Questions)* 2 window shades shown here are gorgeous! Am looking for similar fabric or shades for my house. Please help! A: Danyell the fabric is a Waverly 14446710 and i had them custom made. I can order for you. Just email me and we can discuss. --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
