Rhonda Staley Design

Rhonda was truly amazing! We were looking for an Interior Decorator/Designer to help us with our complete remodel of our penthouse condo. Rhonda was highly recommended from two individuals. From the moment we first spoke on the phone we knew she was the right choice as she stated that her goal for us was that we would love our new space as much on day one as we would 10 years down the road. We wanted a timeless remodel and she fulfilled her mission. My husband was looking for the "wow" effect when you walked in the door and we were happy to report that Rhonda delivered. Rhonda gave excellent advice along the way, was definitive on her opinion, and had the vision to make our transformation a reality. I still walk around the condo in awe in the absolute beauty that Rhonda created. Our advice - don't hesitate, as you won't be disappointed in Rhonda Staley!

Coralville Painting Inc. I am a painting contractor in Coralville since 1983. Rhonda and I have worked on projects for over 15 years. I'm amazed at her expertise in transforming her clients needs, whether it be traditional or trendy techniques. She will give the personal attention you deserve for bringing out the most in your home. Very professional and creative. I highly recommend Rhonda Staley Design, LLC.

We truly enjoy working with Rhonda. Her professionalism and creative ideas guide our clients through the many decisions needed for building a new home or renovating their existing home. We have worked with Rhonda on a wide variety of home styles over the years and each time the result is not only beautiful, but functional as well. Rhonda’s knowledge of products, sense of proportion and space planning have proven invaluable to our clients.

It wasn't an easy assignment. Downsize two empty nesters from 2400 square feet to 1200 square feet. Keep the footprint and charm of a 1930s Cape Cod style home but accommodate the special needs of a client with MS. Rhonda Staley provided stylish solutions. She kept us on track to finish the project as quickly as possible while dealing with a client distracted by the pressures of owning and operating their own business. Rhonda brought a shared vision to the project. She incorporated our own furniture and art into the new space. She narrowed the overwhelming selection of new furnishings and fixtures. She appreciated our financial limitations. Rhonda Staley incorporated the old with the new to make a lovely, peaceful and accessible home. I wholeheartedly recommend her.

Rhonda recently designed my dining room and the results are stunning! She listened carefully to what I wanted, and presented me with numerous choices of furniture pieces and fabrics in keeping with my style until we found exactly what I was looking for. She knew that my husband and I collect art and she was able to find a fabric that complements a painting we already owned. She took our dining room from casual to formal and her design was spot on. We were even able to stay on budget! This is the third room Rhonda has designed for us and I highly recommend her as a designer!

I met Rhonda Staley quite by accident seven years ago. I saw photos of her work in a window display and knew she was extremely talented as her work evoked actual emotion. Rhonda has designed several rooms/areas in my home and I have been so impressed with her style, knowledge and interpersonal skill. She really want to know her client's taste and only then does she start designing. I have worked with other designers who do not have this gift (effort). Rhonda Staley is NOT a cookie cutter designer. She takes risks, actually cares, and her work exhibits her warmth. She is currently working up another room for me and I can't wait!

I hired Rhonda to help me design my retirement home. I also had her do the interior design. She was fabulous. So much detail work. She was on top of it daily. I am still a working professional so she would schedule me when needed and have all my choices organized. She learned my tastes quickly and followed my likes My home looks beautiful inside and out. All the decor fits in its spot. She worked with so many fabrics and designs, that complimented what I already had decided to keep. My home is very comfortable and set for entertaining. Rhonda worked on every detail from beginning to my move last August. I highly recommend her for any project, large or small. She will make your decisions much easier.

It is so refreshing to work with Rhonda Staley. She is not tunnel-visioned in to just one style. Her range and scope transcends the whole continuum of design. Rhonda is very professional, gives her clients superb customer service and is very pleasant to work with on all projects. The very best I have worked with in my career spanning over 42 years!

Rhonda was an absolute joy to work with! She is a true professional with a genuine love of all the aspects of interior design. She was able see the possibilities in a variety of situations and obstacles; as our house was complete remodel and several unexpected surprises surfaced during our project. She suggested an equally amazing “plan B” every time that happened. She is a hard-worker and strived very hard to meet our needs, on time and on budget. She is very creative and pays attention to detail. She listened to our goals and visions for our home and she was able to bring personal touches of “us” into each room. She worked directly with numerous sub-contractors to “co-design” when necessary (i.e. cabinet designer, wood worker). She helped us design all aspects of our home from start to finish and we are thrilled with the end results! We would highly recommend Rhonda to anyone!

Rhonda has an eye for what will work for a space and look the best! She listens to your budget and ideas and creatively gives you the best options for you to choose. Rhonda made our patio beautiful! More projects to come!
