Jump at the chance to work with her, if you have the opportunity. Rachel designed the interior of my entire home and it looks like it belongs on the front of a designer catalog. I could not have dreamed up the look that she created for us. What makes Rachel special is her eye - she just has a way of envisioning how the space should look based on how you describe your style. I had a number of pieces that I loved that I wanted to keep and she found a way to incorporate them and make them blend in seamlessly with the new pieces. After we did this project, I wanted to her to help on the interior of a 2nd property we own and rent out as a vacation rental. She didn't have the time to take it on so I had to work with a different designer and there was a noticeable difference. The other designer couldn't make the space harmonious or work with some of the pieces I already had there, plus she wasn't able to pick out retail items that added a special element, like Rachel had for me. Luckily, Rachel's schedule opened up again and I am now working with her on a kitchen and bathroom remodel project. She designed the most beautiful look for the kitchen -from the cabinets detail and how they frame the windows and has given us renditions of what all the other rooms will look like and they are going to be spectacular. I'm pretty sure I can't live with Rachel's expertise and unique eye going forward. So, if you have the chance to work with her you should jump on it. She is a cut above other designers. ### All 15 reviews **★★★★★ — Catherine, April 2025** > We recently had the pleasure of working with Rachel to furnish our new home, and we couldn’t be happier with the results! Rachel was incredibly patient and guided us through discovering our preferred style. She helped us choose beautiful, high-quality pieces that we absolutely love. Throughout the entire process, she was there every step of the way, ensuring timely and accurate deliveries. The final reveal was wonderful and exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking to create a beautiful and comfortable living space! **★★★★★ — j, April 2025** > Working with Rachel was essential to the success of our remodel and addition. She took the initial floor plans from our architect and expertly refined them, incorporating beautiful architectural details that enhanced the entire interior design. With her deep technical and architectural expertise, combined with her exceptional design skills, she truly brought our vision to life. Rachel has a remarkable ability to balance style with functionality and attention to detail. We highly recommend her! **★★★★★ — Stitch Custom Furnishings, Feb. 2021** > We love to work with Rachel, her eye is superb and all the fabrics and furniture look amazing and great in the space. > The transformation on her clients homes before and after is just incredible! We def enjoy collaborating! **★★★★★ — Liz, Nov. 2018** > Working with Rachel was an absolute dream. She transformed a rental property into what feels like our very own home. Rachel saw our vision and made it come to life. She stayed on budget and made the process seamless. I highly recommend her! **★★★★★ — waerty, Sept. 2018** > When writing your review, consider things like the pro’s professionalism, knowledge, work quality, and ability to meet deadlines and budgets. **★★★★★ — Eleanor Reinholdt, June 2018** > When I came home on the final day of installation, the first words I said to myself were, "Why did I wait so long to do this?" After spending years of slowly doing changes to our living room, dining room, and foyer -- and never being fully satisfied with the results -- I worked with Rachel to finally help me create finished rooms that I love to live in. She was wonderful to work with, pushing me to commit to the bold choices I really wanted, and created a fantastic blend of modern, organic, and traditional elements in our over 100 year old Edwardian that feel completely us. I'm looking forward to my next design adventure with her! **★★★★★ — Theresa Jennings, March 2018** > Rachel Madden Interiors transformed my home! I went from dated and dark, to fresh, inviting and classic. From design to execution, the whole experience was professional and a lot of fun. Rachel is a good listener and gives honest feedback. She has a great eye for design and is amazing at sourcing just the right item. I learned so much from her. I highly recommend Rachel Madden Interiors. **★★★★★ — Dori Greenbaum, June 2017** > Rachel was such a pleasure to work with. She helped make my home a beautiful and inviting space that feels very personal to me and my husband. She presented several design directions and pulled the whole space together to make it feel cohesive and elegant. It was such a wonderful decision working with her. **★★★★★ — User, May 2017** > Rachel is a joy to work with.. she brings a wealth of knowledge of interior design and space planning to every project she works on. Her customer service experience and attention to detail lets her create a lasting impression with all of her clientele. **★★★★★ — mercer INTERIOR, May 2017** > Beautiful, fresh spaces! I would highly recommend working with Rachel Madden Interiors. She is a very talented and knowledgable designer! **★★★★★ — Wall2Wall Interiors, LLC, May 2017** > Rachel was a pleasure to collaborate with! She has a wonderful sense. I would be very happy to work together with her again. **★★★★★ — Dave J, May 2017** > I hired Rachel initially to deliver a comprehensive interior design plan and furnish my new home. Throughout the process Rachel demonstrated efficiency through listening to what was required and scoping the project accordingly. She displayed excellent communication skills throughout the entire process on stage and status and I felt delivered over and above what was expected. Rachel possesses a high level of knowledge gained through her experience at large design firms which I felt translated into a comparable level of service. I highly recommend Rachel. **★★★★★ — Laura Gray, May 2017** > Working with Rachel was a great experience! She worked with my budget to create a home that was sophisticated and comfortable, and exactly what I had envisioned. Most importantly, she understood that with 3 young boys the space had to be built to take a beating, while still looking good. Rachel not only has excellent taste, but she is honest and tells you what you need to hear. She listens, is responsive, and provides a number of ideas for each room. She also provided us with digital mock-ups so we could visualize the spaces she designed, which I found very helpful. The whole process was fun and so worth it -- we absolutely love our new home! **★★★★★ — User, May 2017** > I had a wonderful experience working with Rachel and would definitely work with her again in the future. She understands her craft and is enjoyable to work with. ## Selected projects - [Hidden Valley Project](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/hidden-valley-project-pj-vj~7524515) - Location: Hidden Valley, CA - Photos: 66 - [Cottage by the Pasture](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/cottage-by-the-pasture-pj-vj~7614079) - Location: Granite Bay, CA - Photos: 12 - [Modern Elegance in Presidio Heights](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/modern-elegance-in-presidio-heights-pj-vj~5472712) - Location: San Francisco, CA - Photos: 24 - Description: My clients on this project rent their 100 year old apartment in Presidio Heights, San Francisco, and wanted to remodel it nonetheless.

The house was built to maximize privacy with the main level leading to a sprawling deck with unobstructed sweeping views of the rolling hills, bay and San Francisco skyline. "My main goal was to create an indoor/outdoor flow that felt seamless and unified. It was important to ensure the interiors didn’t compete with the view for attention, so I opted for simplicity and an earthy palate that reflected the natural surroundings.” This me… - [Old Meets Blue in San Francisco](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/old-meets-blue-in-san-francisco-pj-vj~5472725) - Location: San Francisco, CA - Photos: 5 - [Traditional Living Spaces Get a Contemporary Makeover](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/traditional-living-spaces-get-a-contemporary-makeover-pj-vj~4596314) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - Description: This project was featured in a Before + Afters story here on Houzz.
