## About

### Houzz Badges

- 250 Ideabook Saves

If there was such a thing as a "design gypsy" it would be Rick Rifle.  Vintage properties: check.  Modern lofts: check.  Islands in the Bahamas: check.  Bachelor pads: check.  Occasional art direction for television and film....wait....what??  Yup.  That too.  When one lives in Los Angeles, one avails oneself of any and all opportunities.  Hosting design shows??  Yeah...you may remember him from "Designing for the Sexes" on HGTV or "Trading Spaces" ...remember that little ole' show?  In short, Rick is totally immersed in design.  If the opportunity strikes and the timing is right, he's on-board.  And along the  way, he has fun!  He loves design and he loves "making it work" for his clients, be they a private island in the Bahamas, "Hollywood Game Night" on NBC, or a platinum estate in Bel Air.

**★★★★★ — Sharon Kyle, Aug. 2015**

> Rick Rifle helped me with the design of my living room and dining room. He was fun to work with. He honored my opinion while guiding me in directions I hadn't thought of and he was professional. The end product is breadth taking.

## Selected projects

- [West Hollywood Penthouse Loft](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/west-hollywood-penthouse-loft-pj-vj~949280)
  - Location: Not specified

  - Description: Before I even get into it, I ABSOLUTELY NEVER believed my client when she promised me she could fill a shoe-wall. Moving-on... my client (now my really good friend) wanted a totally fresh start. The only things she was bringing with her was clothing, family photos and shoes. Lots of shoes. She was open to anything and everything, including a "wall of art" executed by her own hands, chronicling her paint-endeavours from grade school through graduate school. While she herself agreed that maybe she…
- [Bachelor Pad in the Canyon](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bachelor-pad-in-the-canyon-pj-vj~953708)
  - Location: Not specified

  - Description: A pad for an entertainment executive bachelor in a canyon... every designer's dream! From his very first question: "Can I have a pool table?", I knew we would be a great match! Since the architecture of the house leans towards traditional and the client wanted things that leaned "modern", the answer was to go "transitional". Antiques and modern pieces were balanced so neither could really take-over. Wall-color throughout public spaces was unified by painting it "smooth stone" by Glidden, while b…
- [Hollywood Hills view house](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/hollywood-hills-view-house-pj-vj~949245)
  - Location: Not specified

  - Description: On a clear day... you can see Catalina Island (or at least Century City)!! Lower furniture profiles don't block the views, but outdoor chenilles and velvets (from Pindler & PIndler and Kravet) keep light-colored furniture "kid friendly". The lighter palette also helps to emphasize the cedar-plank ceiling and lets it stand-out. A custom sofa that wraps back on itself allows for the back deck to be open and incorporated into traffic-flow during larger gatherings. The white cabinets in the kitchen…
- [Bahamas Vacation Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bahamas-vacation-home-pj-vj~949463)
  - Location: Not specified

  - Description: Is it really better in the Bahamas? It is if you live in this vacation home on an ocean-to-ocean lot! From the custom-made man-of-war jellyfish-inspired chandeliers in the foyer, to the turquoise pool forty feet over the Sea of Abaco, this is a resort home no-one would ever want to leave. The palette was chosen based on the colors of the ocean and the local flora. A Chippendale pattern (found throughout the Caribbean) was incorporated into all of the railings both indoors and out so as to create…

## Community Q&A

The color is "rubidoux" by Pratt and Lambert.
