She was able to use and stage much of my existing furniture, and showed me how we could change fabrics and add accessories to update everything for a brand new look. She was so warm and easy to work with, and very well organized. I always had pictures, a budget and a schedule in hand before making any decisions, and Emily intuited what look I wanted, even when I wasn't able to explain it myself. Emily was a pleasure to work with! **★★★★★ — Aseem Batra, July 2018** > Emily was able to hone in on my design preferences and offer me great choices within my budget. She was always professional and got back to me in a timely manner. I'm very happy with the finish product and I get lots of compliments on her work. **★★★★★ — Katherine Ungerecht, July 2018** > Emily not only works diligently to bring a client's vision to reality, but she is a joy to work with. For each room of our house, she has helped us articulate our desires and flesh them out before our eyes. She offers suggestions--never pushily--and has helped us envision new spins on our style that keep the rooms looking fresh and like they had a designer's eye. **★★★★★ — Alissa Zito, July 2018** > You will love the results you'll get from Emily Ruddo! She takes the time to get to know your personal style, budgets and needs, and then designs the dream room you'll love. **★★★★★ — margo856, June 2017** > I hired Emily after seeing her beautiful work in a friend's home to help make my home complete with accessories for my living room, bedroom and guest room as well as my outdoor patio. She has amazing taste and gave me enough options for me to make a decision on what I wanted but not too many to overwhelm me, which is exactly what I asked for. I absolutely love the pieces and I get so many compliments. Emily is prompt, professional and organized. I'd highly recommend her services. **★★★★★ — Emily Buskas, Oct. 2016** > I have worked with Emily Ruddo now on two homes and it was a pleasure working with her on both properties. After we moved, we didn't think twice about hiring Emily again because we were so happy with the final product at our first home. Her impecable taste and style is what sets her apart from other interior designers. She is also extremely detail oriented and organized, which has made working with her a flawless process. She is also very quick to get you anything you need (swatches for window coverings, samples of rugs, wallpaper, etc.) and is extremely prompt when replying to your emails, phone calls and texts. Emily understood both my husband and my style right away and understood what pieces we needed (and would love) for our home. I have referred her now to 4 of my friends looking for a designer and they have all used and have been happy with her services (whether that is for an entire home, or just a room or two). Overall, we will continue to work with Emily as our home continues to need updates and always have her number handy when we are ready to start another "project.." Her work is gorgeous and we are so lucky to have found her on Houzz. **★★★★★ — Carolyn Crosson, Sept. 2016** > Emily Ruddo was a pleasure to work with from day 1. She very reasonably price-wise and time-wise turned my boring living room into a room I love to show off. Emily is enthusiastic, forward thinking and creative. She listened to my thoughts, came back with examples and estimates in a timely manner and showed me a range of choices that helped me to expand my vision. I always enjoyed meeting with her and would recommend her to anyone who needs a little help in the decorating realm. I could not be more pleased. I promise she will not disappoint! **★★★★★ — jcoconsult, March 2015** > I was introduced to Emily when I bought my condo late last year. She assisted me in the entire interior design of my home including fabrics, furniture ,art work and accessories. She made what could have been a very difficult job fairly easy and a lot of fun.She also saved me a lot of money! I now have a home that expresses who I am, that reflects my taste and lifestyle and that I feel completely at home in... I am thrilled at what she and I have been able to accomplish together...thank you Emily! **★★★★★ — PamelaLeigh, Feb. 2015** > I am a big fan of Emily’s work and decided to use her e-services to help re-decorate my daughters' bedrooms. After providing Emily with photos, room dimensions and details on what I wanted to accomplish, she quickly delivered complete room designs, along with paint colors, accessories and all sourcing details. Not only do I love the designs, my daughters love them too. I wanted fun, yet sophisticated and timeless designs for their rooms so they could also grow into them. Emily delivered exactly what I was looking for. I would highly recommend Emily for any design services and hope I have the opportunity to work with her again. **★★★★★ — Meghan bob Photography, Jan. 2015** > Emily is an amazing designer that I have worked with over the years on multiple projects. Her work photographs so beautifully and you can't help feeling completely at home in the spaces she designs. Emily and I have worked on several editorial projects as well and my photographs of her work have shown up in multiple magazines - clearly her talent has a universal appeal. She is exceptionally professional and yet so friendly - she's wonderful to work with! **★★★★★ — lindsaylebby, Nov. 2014** > Emily decorated my last apartment a few years ago and was able to make a small older unit look fresh and cool. I was so pleased with her work I recently hired her again when I moved into a larger home. I was very pleased to be able to move a lot of the pieces I had already invested in with Emily over to the new place as they were timeless investments and I still loved them. She does an incredible job designing unique rooms that reflect your personal style and vision for the decor. My boyfriend and I have loved every finished project Emily has completed and continue to hire her for additional rooms and projects. She is super easy to work with, provides a lot of choices (there are always several we like) and pulls everything together perfectly. Highly recommend! **★★★★★ — melissagdelisle, Nov. 2014** > Emily Ruddo exceeded our expectations! We completely remodeled our home and wanted to fill it with a décor that felt special to us. I turned to Pinterest for ideas and come across many of Emily’s designs so I contacted her. Emily’s professionalism, strong work ethic and creativity exceeded our expectations! She possesses a true talent for design down to the smallest of details. She worked tirelessly to find unique and not-seen-before items. Her organization and outstanding communication moved the process along smoothly and helped us tremendously with making decisions. Her enthusiasm made the entire process exciting! Emily is a true professional in every way and we can highly recommend her. Our home has become our treasure and we are still marveling at its beauty thanks to Emily! ## Selected projects - [Homedale](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/homedale-pj-vj~7385478) - Location: Los Angeles, CA - Photos: 15 - Description: Traditional home for a family of five in Brentwood, CA.
