I hired Heather after getting glowing comments from friends who had used her services in the past. At the first meeting, I instantly liked her friendly and professional manner and she took the time to get to know me and our family. She listened to my likes and wants for how the "new" house would fit our needs. Heather helped me to define my style and be more confident in my design choices. I loved learning from her the reasons behind the choices that she made for the project. She was easily accessible, replied quickly and provided visuals that were helpful to see where the project was headed. Heather was able to provide alternate options that were budget friendly without losing quality or style. Heather provided guidance in everything from paint colors and hardware to custom furniture and art. The best part of about working with Heather is... she loves what she does and it is contagious. Just a few more things... and our project will be complete. I can't wait to show the pictures. It is amazing and I am so thankful for Heather for creating our beautiful space. Now onto the next project... and of course, I will use Heather!! **★★★★★ — Maritza Block, June 2017** > We are in the process of renovating our traditional kitchen and family room over to a transitional style. Heather has helped transform both rooms with lighter colors and clean lines keeping the flow with the rest of the furnishings throughout the house. She has helped us with selections of cabinetry, counter tops, hardware, flooring, furniture, window treatments and carpets. I love Heather's sense of style. She helped me step out of my comfort zone and I really like the direction we have taken. Often times, Heather offered alternative options that saved us money without sacrificing quality. She made sure to stay within our budget. The entire project has gone smoothly and it has been a pleasure to work with Heather. **★★★★★ — Michele M., Jan. 2017** > Heather is really easy to work with and great to bounce ideas off of. She’s very professional and friendly. I was struggling to explain what I wanted and she was able to work with me and help translate my ideas. We’ve done two projects together and I’m really happy with her work! **★★★★★ — A Goldman, Jan. 2017** > I worked with Heather after interviewing several designers and I definitely made the right choice! At our first conversation I knew that she "got" the style I wanted for my home and she really did a fabulous job. Got lots of excellent furniture and the look that I was angling for. I highly recommend her. **★★★★★ — Heather Hajdu, Jan. 2017** > I really enjoyed working with Heather. She’s super fun to work with and very easy to talk to. During our consultation, she really listened to what I wanted and gave me some great ideas. I wanted something classic but also a little bit different and the end product was just that. It was great. She understood my style and the end product was beautiful. On top of that, I felt like her pricing was very reasonable! **★★★★★ — Nina Pomeroy Photography, Dec. 2016** > Heather is an absolute professional who has great connections with the different trades. She is mindful of budget and most importantly very creative. I would highly recommend Heather Ryder Design. **★★★★★ — kfeighan1, March 2015** > Heather is a true professional with an outstanding eye! She has worked tirelessly on my project down to every teeny, tiny detail. She totally understood what I wanted without me have to try to explain it. I can't wait to show off my finished project! ## Selected projects - [Westchester Conservatory](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/westchester-conservatory-pj-vj~5541686) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 17 - [Connecticut Living Room & Sunroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/connecticut-living-room-and-sunroom-pj-vj~4431925) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 9 - [Vibrant Home Office](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/vibrant-home-office-pj-vj~2836203) - Location: Fairfield, CT - Photos: 6 - [Beach House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/beach-house-pj-vj~282238) - Location: Asharoken, NY - Photos: 10 - [New Jersey Modern Rustic](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/new-jersey-modern-rustic-pj-vj~2792244) - Location: Ramsey, NJ - Photos: 18 - [New Jersey Modern Rustic - Living Spaces](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/new-jersey-modern-rustic-living-spaces-pj-vj~2792278) - Location: Ramsey, NJ - Photos: 10 - [Eclectic Entry](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/eclectic-entry-pj-vj~2696328) - Location: Fairfield, CT - Photos: 6 - [Powder Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/powder-room-pj-vj~414253) - Location: Wilton, CT - Photos: 5 - [Connecticut Charmer](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/connecticut-charmer-pj-vj~1468675) - Location: Wilton, CT - Photos: 8 - Description: A complete transformation from gold, navy and cranberry Queen Ann style furniture, to a light and airy, modern-chic space. The client was always challenged by this room because the fireplace (which they loved to enjoy) was not centered in the room, which made placing seating around the fireplace difficult! We opened up the room by adding the sectional and two club chairs to create an easy conversational setting, while still being able to make the best use of the beautiful fireplace!
