    Mr. Risdon is AMAZING! I hired him to decorate my home in California. He understood my vision and even with my 'stubbornness' - he still managed to understand everything I was looking for in the design. And even more... he did this 100% remotely! Who knew that by just using FaceTime, Skype, and email that someone can really make your house a home! I'd hire him again for my next place. 10's ACROSS THE BOARD!!!!! Can't wait for him to come to LA and actually see his work in person. Good job Byron!

    I have worked with Byron Risdon for over 10 years and he has helped me to decorate two beautiful homes -one in New York City and one in Bridgehampton. Byron has an amazing eye and fantastic vision. He had impeccable taste and tremendous reasources which make him a decorator I would highly recommend to anyone. He is someone who really listens, a quality which is so important when working on a project as personal as someone's home. He is a perfectionist and will alwayd keep going until he acheives the results he wanted. Byron is a pleasure to work with and I look forward to our next project together.

    I needed a basic rejuvenation of my DC apartment and found Byron through a friend. He worked tirelessly to make sure the scattered vision in my head came to life. He was always prompt and would most times beat me to appointments to pick out pieces or to place them in my home. I couldn't believe how organized her was. Will definitely use him again.

    Byron has been wonderful to work with. He is honest, transparent, and helpful. He has taken our likes and dislikes into account while selecting pieces for our new house. He finds a lot of items that are unique and provides the perfect number of options for you to decide on something you love while not feeling overwhelmed. I would definitely recommend Byron to family and friends!

    Working with Byron has been a very enjoyable experience. He has an amazing eye and an incredible ability to propose new pieces that complement previously acquired items. He also made it extremely easy for me. He would send me options, I'd select one, and he would make himself available for the delivery while I was at work. It's wonderful to come home to new furniture without any hassle. I highly recommend Byron Risdon LLC!
