Working with this team to redesign my new home was an incredible experience, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. They are visionary designers with the attention to detail and follow-through to bring that vision to life beautifully. > > They were thorough, communicative, and so easy to work with throughout the entire process. Their clear communication and thoughtful guidance made every decision feel manageable, and they left no stone unturned to ensure every last detail was perfectly executed. > > The care they put into my home shows everywhere I look. I’m extremely grateful for their work and would recommend Rockledge without hesitation. **Comment from Rockledge Design + Architecture:** > We had so much fun collaborating on your new home, Emily. Thanks for trusting us, and for taking some big swings. Enjoy! **★★★★★ — hnl343, Aug. 2026** > Andy and Patrick (together Rockledge) are true experts in their field. From the first phone call I knew we were good hands and chose the right team for our very first full renovation experience. Their highly thoughtful and personalized design options, combined with expert advice related to building/structural considerations, lead to a stunning final space that just feels like “us” (but more elevated)! They have a lot of experience with older houses, which is imperative when undertaking a project such as this. Andy and Patrick also went over and above in many aspects to help us out with industry referrals and any crazy questions that we had, big or small, during the entire project. They truly supported us from start to finish, and we can’t recommend enough that you end your search and get in touch with them! **Comment from Rockledge Design + Architecture:** > Thanks, Heather! We enjoyed collaborating with you and Cheryl, and are so glad to hear you are pleased with your brand new space. Let us know when you're ready to tackle phase two! **★★★★★ — Brittany, Oct. 2024** > We were really intimidated to start our first home renovation never having done something like that before, but as soon as I talked to Andy, I immediately felt like I could trust him and Patrick to guide us through the process. They were extremely patient with us as we took a long time to make decisions, and with very little direction, they gave us 3 amazing designs to choose from for our primary bathroom. We had such a great experience through the design process that we decided to keep Rockledge on to manage the renovation to the end. They had great relationships with contractors which enabled us to have an entire team working on this that we were really happy with. They were with us every step of the way throughout the renovation and the final product was even better than we could have imagined. We are SO happy with our new bathroom and we can't thank Andy and Patrick enough for helping us to make it happen! **Comment from Rockledge Design + Architecture:** > Thanks, Brittany! Happy to know we helped make your family's first big renovation go smoothly and simply. Enjoy your new bathroom! **★★★★★ — Liz Lynch, May 2024** > Andy and Patrick have shepherded us through a long and complicated project with amazing results! After furnishing us with a fantastic design for the home we were in, they didn’t miss a beat when we decided that we wanted to move and remodel a different home instead. > > Every detail was carefully considered, they worked attentively with our contractor to ensure nothing was overlooked, and they gave me a design that was better than I could have hoped! Everyone who comes into our house admires the style, the use of color, and the gorgeous details. It’s a magazine ready design that still feels like it fits our family and reflects our personalities. **Comment from Rockledge Design + Architecture:** > So glad we could give you a home as fun and colorful as your family is, Liz! It’s really been a pleasure to collaborate with you. Cheers! **★★★★★ — Linnea Warren May, Jan. 2023** > Andy and Patrick of Rockledge were a dream to work with during our kitchen renovation last year. We had an aesthetic, desired functionality, and some design elements in mind, but were overwhelmed with figuring out the details and technical aspects of making it a reality. Andy did a great job bringing our vision to life, providing multiple options for layouts and finishes for us at various price points and graciously and responsively taking our feedback into account when making revisions to the plan. Patrick's structural drawings showing how we would remove a former exterior wall and replace it with a beam to open up the kitchen were completed quickly and meticulously and were easily approved by the city. > Communication was excellent through the entire process (which was pretty protracted due to contractor back-ups) and we appreciated Andy's dedication to keeping us and our contractor in the loop when it came to scheduling and design decisions. Our contractor relied heavily on the design book Rockledge provided, and Andy's attention to detail with measurements, choice of fixtures and finishes, etc. meant that the process went as smoothly as we could have hoped for a 100-year old kitchen renovation. You can see the finished product in Rockledge's Projects ("Modern Rustic Kitchen"). We are grateful every day we get to cook and spend time in the heart of our home! **Comment from Rockledge Design + Architecture:** > Thanks for the kind words, Linnea! It was a pleasure working with your family on this project. **★★★★★ — Amanda B, Jan. 2023** > Wonderful to work with - extremely knowledgeable, professional, and patient. Renovating a home is super personal and Rockledge took to the time to understand our needs and work with us to create our dream. **Comment from Rockledge Design + Architecture:** > Thanks, Amanda. We're glad you're both pleased with the end result! ## Selected projects - [Soft Brutalist Retreat](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/soft-brutalist-retreat-pj-vj~7956411) - Location: Pittsburgh, PA - Photos: 53 - Description: When our client purchased this split level in Highland Park last year, the home had a bit of identity crisis. A recent exterior facelift (new garage and entry doors, natural wood slat soffits, sleek address numbers and mailbox), combined with the original ledger stone façade leaned into a Midcentury Modern aesthetic fitting of its 1957 construction. Somewhat of a flipper’s special, the open plan interior lacked a true point of view — a few vaguely farmhouse nods and dated builder-grade finishes… - [Boho Glam Bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/boho-glam-bathroom-pj-vj~7503095) - Location: Pittsburgh, PA - Photos: 37 - Description: Whether it’s a jolt of energy in the morning, or a respite after a long day, this well-appointed bathroom offers everything you need no matter when you step inside. Bold organic patterns, highly textured metals, and rich, exuberant jewel tones shine throughout, with something beautiful to take in everywhere you look. Some of the luxe features in this en suite primary bath include a large steam shower, Japanese-style soaking tub, and floor-to-ceiling handmade arabesque wall tile. The custom white… - [Desert Retro Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/desert-retro-kitchen-pj-vj~7889212) - Location: Pittsburgh, PA - Photos: 30 - Description: If “desert retro” could be translated as a design style, this MCM-inspired kitchen would be it. Our goal for these clients — a young couple who recently relocated to the Pittsburgh-area from Phoenix, AZ — was to bring a touch of the sunny Sonoran into their new home. This subdued, sun-bleached palette feels both vibrant and earthy. A dramatic, shifting landscape that comes alive with the day’s changing light. Large format terrazzo tiles ground the space with muted, dusty green, ochre and amber.… - [Eclectic Sitting Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/eclectic-sitting-room-pj-vj~7106670) - Location: Pittsburgh, PA - Photos: 7 - Description: For the sitting room in this 1930 American Foursquare, we focused on adding back much of the original character which had been stripped from the home over years of renovations. This included opening the original chimney column in order to accommodate an electric fireplace insert, and sourcing an antique wooden mantel. New built-in shelving and lower cane front cabinets were constructed to flank the feature fireplace, while all new carpentry and existing trim was painted a soothing green to unify… - [Victorian Revival Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/victorian-revival-kitchen-pj-vj~7444645) - Location: Pittsburgh, PA - Photos: 25 - Description: Part of a major renovation that touched all corners of a 120-year-old Bloomfield home, this project is full of style and charming Victorian details. As an avid home cook, one of our client’s top priorities was maximizing storage throughout the space. To make the compact kitchen more functional, we removed a small peninsula containing the sink and dishwasher which was splitting the space in half. We also adjusted the size of the windows, bringing them above countertop height which allowed for a n… - [Mid-Century Modern Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/mid-century-modern-kitchen-pj-vj~7532054) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 54 - Description: Built in 1979, this home in Pittsburgh’s Bradford Woods borough snuck in at the very tail end of Mid-Century Modern architecture. As lovers of that era, you can imagine our excitement when our clients explained their vision to lean in to that style with their planned kitchen renovation. We collaborated to design a beautiful and functional space that not only better suits this young family’s lifestyle, but truly feels like it has always been a part of the home. Starting with the layout, we opened… - [Timeless Primary Bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/timeless-primary-bathroom-pj-vj~7532028) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 22 - [Colorful Guest Bedroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/colorful-guest-bedroom-pj-vj~7106717) - Location: Pittsburgh, PA - Photos: 37 - Description: The goal for this guest bedroom was to create a warm and inviting space with a unique design that didn’t feel like an afterthought when stacked up against the rest of the home. With bold colors, rich textures, and statement-making details filling every corner, the end result is vibrant, unexpected, and sure to make any visitor feel impossibly chic. A statement-making wooden slat wall in a welcoming shade of pink anchors the Queen bed. To maximize the room’s compact footprint, a built-in bookshel… - [En Suite Primary Bath](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/en-suite-primary-bath-pj-vj~7532084) - Location: Pittsburgh, PA - Photos: 34 - Description: From the plum-brown limewashed walls to the curated mix of antique and contemporary elements, this en suite primary bath exudes quiet luxury. The inspiration for this space began with the early 20th century English washstand. The warm wood, Carrara marble top, and striking backsplash featuring original Racing Green pool glazed tiles set the tone for the rest of the room’s materials palette. To help transform the piece into a functioning modern day vanity, we added custom brass feet, new cabinet… - [Contemporary Home Office](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/contemporary-home-office-pj-vj~7106678) - Location: Pittsburgh, PA - Photos: 11 - Description: Our challenge for this home office renovation was to add tons of character without creating anything that might be too distracting during video meetings. In order to achieve this, we decided to use the room’s tall ceilings to their full potential. A contemporary open weave light fixture along with a graphic line drawing motif wallpaper become the focal point, both framed by a walnut floating shelf for plants. The wallpaper’s midcentury modern-inspired color story is complemented by other element… - [Modern Rustic Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/modern-rustic-kitchen-pj-vj~7106514) - Location: Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania - Photos: 44 - Description: When a growing young family purchased this Squirrel Hill home, it was clear that the kitchen had been neglected for several years. It was dated, small, and visually cut off from the rest of the home — including an adjacent eat-in space. As avid cooks and entertainers, they wanted a bright and cheerful kitchen that not only functioned well, but could become a central hub for their day-to-day lives. With some reconfiguring of the appliance and cabinet layout — including the removal of a partial wa… - [Built-In Wet Bar + Storage](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/built-in-wet-bar-storage-pj-vj~7532094) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 32 - Description: To help make this family room in Wexford more functional and cohesive, we added new custom built-in storage around the brick fireplace. On the left side, an existing built-in was situated in between the fireplace and a small closet, which also contained a sink. We started by peeling away these elements to create a larger space. Adding symmetry to the room, we designed new cabinetry which included a mix of hidden and open shelf storage. Behind full-height pocketing doors on the left, a new wet ba… - [Stylish Kids' Bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/stylish-kids-bathroom-pj-vj~7379902) - Location: Wexford, PA - Photos: 22 - Description: For this kids’ bathroom in Wexford, our clients wanted to create a space that would grow along with their two young daughters throughout the years. Something that would be fun and playful now, with lots of color — but stylish enough to stand up to teenagers later on. To achieve this, our design centered on classic materials that didn’t sacrifice character: Crisp black and white zellige tile with tons of texture and sheen. A natural, oiled teak double vanity. Bright and clean polished chrome plum… - [Warm + Welcoming Foyer](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/warm-welcoming-foyer-pj-vj~7106690) - Location: Pittsburgh, PA - Photos: 19 - Description: From the handsome original paneling, to the ornate anaglypta wallpaper panels, to the show-stopping stained glass window on the grand staircase — the foyer of this traditional Craftsman home had a ton of charming character to begin with. But it was still in need of a little TLC. The first order of business was to shore up some of the cracking wall liner and deteriorating plaster. Then, a new skim coat of tinted Venetian plaster was added, followed by hand-burnishing to create a slight iridescenc… - [Backyard Entertaining Space](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/backyard-entertaining-space-pj-vj~7106729) - Location: Pittsburgh, PA - Photos: 19 - Description: We completely overhauled this backyard to create a fun and functional entertaining space that could be enjoyed all year long. First, the rear portion of the yard was regraded to form a 12’ x 20’ multiuse zone between the existing hedge and concrete path. This not only mitigated a significant slope in the yard, but created a “sunken” patio for the corner lot, maximizing privacy from neighboring streets. A pair of Craftsman-style arbors with painted swings surround a fire pit creating a cozy conve… - [Vintage Chic Guest Bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/vintage-chic-guest-bathroom-pj-vj~7106522) - Location: Pittsburgh, PA - Photos: 20 - Description: After going unnoticed for several years, a slow leak in this guest bathroom had deteriorated a significant portion of the subfloor. With the main priority being the necessary repairs, any cosmetic upgrades included in the scope had to be fairly budget conscious. Adding another layer of complexity to the project, the space needed be fully functional and completed for some guests who would be arriving in just a few short weeks! Since it was still in great overall condition, our plan was to paint t… [See all 16 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/architects-and-building-designers/rockledge-design-architecture-pfvwus-pf~221926981) --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
