“…helping us navigate through the inevitable challenges and stress with grace, reassurance, and confidence. We recommend her highly!”
“Rande is terrific! She has great taste and ideas, but is also flexible, adjusting to our likes and dislikes with ease and skill, really creating a natural sympatico. We had never worked with a designer before, so we weren’t certain how things would proceed. But we knew we needed help, and she provided that and more. She made our home remodel so much easier, and, in fact, enjoyable. She has strong relationships with multiple vendors, so she was easily able to involve trusted partners throughout the process. More than that, she is smart, professional, upbeat, a delight to deal with, and has a calm manner, helping us navigate through the inevitable challenges and stress with grace, reassurance, and confidence. We recommend her highly!”

“She understands the look you’re seeking for your own environment.”
“I can’t imagine a more rewarding home renovation and design experience. You’ve already read the rave reviews about Rande’s exemplary taste and talent but I emphasize the crucial importance of her listening skills. She understands the look you’re seeking for your own environment. My project was a complete renovation, a whole new approach, and the thought of the myriad decisions I’d need to make was staggering. Rande made what could’ve been an extraordinarily stressful experience into something enjoyable. I can’t imagine anyone better to make all of your dream home dreams come true.”
Henry Kimmel—Benedict Canyon
“She guided us through a complete renovation of our house with grace and finesse.”
“We could not have been more pleased with Rande. She guided us through a complete renovation of our house with grace and finesse. She was both extremely professional and also joyful and fun to work with. She was always accessible, answered calls, emails and every question timely and with knowledge. Her relationships with contractors and vendors at all levels were a great benefit to us, and she ran interference with them whenever necessary. She is careful not to promise anything she isn’t sure she can deliver, and so we learned we could rely on her for candor and honesty. She listened carefully to our vision and opinions and taste and honored them in designing our space and in searching out materials and fixtures, but was not afraid to share her own good taste and gently nudge us when we needed it. We recommend her very highly, and will come back to her again and again as we continue refurnishing our new space.”
Susan & Gary Meyer—Studio City
“…helped us keep our sanity with all the deadlines and decisions.”
“Rande has been an asset in our home renovation. She knows the process inside and out, and helped us keep our sanity with all the deadlines and decisions. She did a great job of understanding our taste quickly and giving us choices that we loved, even when my husband and my tastes diverged. She approaches each project with fresh eyes and gives design options unique to that home and client. For us, that meant marrying our new addition with the older original home. She is a great problem solver, and able to address the quirks and unplanned events that come up in renovation. She has great, trustworthy recommendations for vendors of all kinds. I don’t know how we would have done it without her.”
Sarah Conway & Sean Cunningham—Eagle Rock
“She constantly goes above and beyond.”
“Working with Rande Leaman has been an excellent experience. She constantly goes above and beyond. Without her expert ideas, support – and unmatched ability to decipher my thoughts – I’d still be in an empty house. With the supply chain being what it is, delays and scheduling errors certainly put us behind, but now that the house is complete, I couldn’t be happier. I highly recommend Rande, and she’s already working with several friends. Thank you, Rande!”
Daniel Thrasher—Studio City
“She helped us turn our dream home into a reality…”

“From creating the perfect layout to finding pieces we absolutely loved, Rande really took our spaces to the next level.”

Rande immediately used her professional eye to create designs for multiple rooms that were cohesive and beautiful. She completely understood our style and what we wanted – even though we didn’t! She took the guesswork out of design and made the process simple, efficient and fun. From creating the perfect layout to finding pieces we absolutely loved, Rande really took our spaces to the next level. We never dreamed we could re-learn how to live in our own home, using newly furnished spaces in ways we never imagined, even creating a media room that is the envy of everyone we know! We love our newly designed and furnished house that Rande created for us! It’s like Rande read our minds about what we wanted! We can’t wait to have her design our next home!”
Ethan Lawrence—Valley Village

“Rande made it more than stress free, she made it a joy!”
“My fiance and I lived in a mish-mash of our two styles (and in my case, mostly no style at all!) and then we met Rande! From the get go we knew we made the right choice. She was friendly, professional and had fantastic taste. She welcomed our input and made it come to life in a way that finally felt like our home was “ours.” On top of that, she connected us with wonderful contractors we never would have had access to, or would have invested months and months chasing. She made it more than stress free, she made it a joy! We cannot recommend Rande enough.”
Ken Blankstein— Studio City
“Rande has a great eye and impeccable taste. But most importantly, she really listens to you…”
“I have had the great pleasure of working with Rande Leaman on two remodeling projects now and it has been an outstanding experience. Rande has a great eye and impeccable taste. But most importantly, she really listens to you, and therefore her design ideas and specific suggestions are very personal to YOUR home and preferences. She is also sensitive to budget issues, and will not push really expensive choices on you unnecessarily. Rande also brings so much to the table in experience, understanding of design and regarding remodeling projects more broadly — making her very skilled at anticipating needs, helping to walk you through the various steps and likely timing of the project, and being a great manager of the overall project. Rande also is well-connected with great contractors — I have had excellent experiences with everyone she brought to work on all aspects of my project. Bottom line, I would unequivocally recommend Rande to anyone seeking a quality designer. Oh, and she is absolutely delightful as a person too, making the whole experience fun and enjoyable.”

My kitchen, family room and living room now boast great colors and functionality for every inch of the space. I’ve learned so much about good interior design from her. Her sense of organizing colors orchestrated the harmony of the entire house and all the furniture she picked flattered the already gorgeous space. I can’t thank her enough for this exciting journey. I highly recommend her for the best renovation experience!”
Catherine Kim— Studio City
“Rande is a consummate professional and delivered as promised, and on budget.”
“We highly recommend Rande as an interior designer. We contacted Rande to help us when we moved into a new construction home from an older traditional home. The new home was fairly stark, with gray floors and white walls and our old furniture did not fit. Rande spent time with us getting to know what we like, and then came back with a plan. She has an excellent eye for color, texture, and fabric. She provided us with ideas and options in a variety of price points, so we could mix and match consistent with our taste. Rande is a consummate professional and delivered as promised, and on budget. Most importantly, she listens. While she has a creative vision; she is not married to it, and would listen to our feedback and pivot to add other ideas that we had. She has excellent contacts with tradesmen and manufacturers and she handled everything so we had no hassles when it came to deliveries and installation. Rande has turned our new house into a home. We are absolutely thrilled with the results, and will be hiring Rande to help us in the future.”
Alison & Joe Lima— Valley Village
“Rande is uniquely creative, artistic and innovative.”
“Rande Leaman is by far the best designer we have ever worked with. I can’t recommend her highly enough. Her talent speaks for itself and our home project, which we just completed, came out spectacular. Rande is uniquely creative, artistic and innovative. Despite all of that, her greatest asset is her character and personality. She is so easy and lovely to work with. She really takes the time to understand what the client is looking for, and then uses her talent to get the most out of that look or style. She is responsive, accommodating, flexible and always dependable. We could not have had a better experience, and could not be happier with the result! Thank you, Rande. You helped us build our dream home!!”
Arlyn & Michael Latin—Studio City
“…empathetic, creative, sensible and, most importantly, she listened to us…”
“Rande did a great job for us. We had remodeled our kitchen (using another designer) and were unhappy with the result. We interviewed a number of prospective designers and she was, by far, the most impressive. Rande was empathetic, creative, sensible and, most importantly, she listened to us and understood what we were looking for. She gave us numerous options — all of which were good— and then, coordinated with her team to complete the project efficiently and with no drama and no surprises. We would use Rande again in a heartbeat.”
Elizabeth & Gary Klausner—Santa Monica
“Rande made what is usually a nightmare process so easy. “
“I can’t say enough about Rande. I just finished a remodel on two bathrooms and a fireplace. Rande made what is usually a nightmare process so easy. She is great at listening and understanding what a client wants. I get overwhelmed shopping for tile, flooring, etc. and Rande understood and brought me several samples to choose from. She was always available by phone, email or text and would go to my house several times a week to make sure the project was going well. She also recommended a great contractor. I can’t wait to start other projects in my home and use Rande. I have worked with other designers in the past and Rande is the best.”
Nancy Malkin Gottesfeld — Encino
“…great design insight and is so easy to work with.”
“I am so thankful that Rande came into my life! While I love design, putting it all together by myself is not my forte. I liked her from the moment we spoke on the phone!

Rande has been a huge source of knowledge, great ideas and so incredibly helpful with showing me different colors and furniture for every room. She has great design insight and is so easy to work with. I highly recommend her as she will be an asset to helping put together a cohesive, beautiful home with great taste and style.

Dr. Susan Levy — Westlake Village
“I like how she thinks outside of the box…”
“Rande’s knowledge paired with her confidence is what attracted me to her initially. She helped me furnish a few rooms of my home and was always respectful in listening to my preferences yet always brought a different element to the table. She is extremely reliable and responsive. I appreciate that she always provided me with a wide variety of choices and we were able to determine the best one as a team. I like how she thinks outside of the box while keeping cost and the reality of my three children in mind. I would definitely use her again and refer her to friends and family.”
Karina Fakheri — Studio City

My favorite part is going to see tile and furniture with Rande — everyone knows her at all the best showrooms in LA! You cannot find a better designer in L.A. Rande is not only kind, patient, has great taste, but she is trustworthy and has a lot of integrity. Trusting our designer was important to us.

She has a kind touch that will help you create the space, the environment, the vibe, the style and tone you have been envisioning. On a practical side, she has excellent resources, is extremely knowledgable, has amazing instincts and is persistent in achieving what you ultimately want for your home.

“Rande is a pleasure to work with. She is very professional but makes you feel as though you’re working with a friend. She has wonderful ideas but is also great at listening to her clients ideas and turning those into a reality. Remodeling is often very expensive and stressful. The work she helped us do in our home looks wonderful and we are very happy we used Rande to make the process a more enjoyable one. We would use Rande to help us decorate in the future and would highly recommend her.”
Traci Feldman – Bel Air
“Rande was a master at showing me the 3 or 4 perfect pieces of tile, fabric, flooring etc. to choose from.”
“I am so grateful to have had Rande work with me on updating my den. I was totally overwhelmed trying to make choices on my own. We refaced an old brick fireplace, replaced floors, curtains, painted, did electrical upgrades and all new furniture. The works. Rande was a master at showing me the 3 or 4 perfect pieces of tile, fabric, flooring etc. to choose from. It was such a relief to have such great choices at my fingertips. I used one of the contractors she recommended. She discussed the project in detail with him and was always there to answer any questions the workers had. I am now enjoying my new den and will be happy to use Rande again for any future projects.”

Our experience was truly collaborative as she acted as a sounding board for our ideas as well as helped us pick out specific items like paint, tile, countertops and furniture when we needed it. She provided valuable information regarding manufacturers and solid recommendations for finding the best in quality and pricing. One of the many talents Rande possesses that really sets her apart is her keen ability to quickly grasp and understand the tastes and style of her clients.

Dr. Tara Zuker – Sherman Oaks
“Love, love, love what Rande did for our bedroom!”

Her design taste, knowledge and expertise is top notch, all while being so down to earth and easy to work with. We never felt pressured and she always gives lots of options that fit within our budget. She knows where to find great pieces and good deals.

We thoroughly enjoyed working with her and we recommend her highly.”
Britt and Jeff Bates – Toluca Lake
“Remarkably fast in turning around great results.”

We hired Rande who delivered not only beautiful and livable spaces but also guided us through the process in order to keep us in budget. Rande is creative and delightful to work with. She was responsive and remarkably fast in turning around great results. Rande provides her professional opinion but never forgets that it is your house, not hers. She makes sure to accommodate your specific requirements (for us it was incorporating key pieces we had collected over the years, and our dog!) while ensuring the final results are fabulous. Can’t wait for Phase Two!”
Vicki & Bruce Nussbaum – Hollywood Hills
“Rande went above and beyond throughout the entire process…”
“We hired Rande to help us decorate our new home, and she has been fabulous to work with from day one. She really took the time to understand our style and our goals for how we wanted the new house to feel for our family. We had never used a designer before, and I now understand how finding the right person actually helps you save money overall — there are the obvious designer discounts, but Rande also found some hidden gems in inexpensive local stores that were perfect for our house. And we didn’t make the pricy mistakes we had made when buying (the wrong!) furniture for our previous home. Rande also connected us with great local vendors who did a wonderful job at a good price. When we had a little hiccup with the wallpaper order for one room, Rande took care of it immediately and kept the project on schedule. She went above and beyond throughout the entire process, making sure every detail was right.
Rande is a pleasure to work with, and I’m already looking forward to getting her help with some other rooms. I highly recommend her.”
Oona Hanson – Sherman Oaks
“My dining and living space was transformed.”
“I highly recommend Rande for interior design! She is amazing and has helped me for the past year as time and budget has allowed. There is no way I could have ended up with a room that I would love as much as I do without her help. She also helped with a remodel in the bathroom, which she made look like a million bucks for very little money. My dining and living space was transformed and I write this in appreciation for all the TLC Rande offered through the process. She is very good at what she does.”
Kim Easton – Santa Monica
“We are so happy with the end result!”
“Rande did a fantastic job for us. She has a great attitude and is a pleasure to work with. Her insight and vision helped us to choose the best colors, fabrics and furniture for our house.

“Rande just helped me redo my entire living room and I am loving it! It changed the look of my house in such a great way. It is cozy but elegant and modern. She helped me find great pieces from all over at really nice prices as well. I have pets and finding a rug that worked and was durable was a challenge, but she had a great rug source that had the perfect one. Everyone who sees my living room comments on how great it looks. It’s exactly what I was looking for and she was great to work with. I can’t wait to have her help me again when needed and to also refer her to friends and clients. She is a real gem!”
Elizabeth Marquart – Sherman Oaks

She also styled our “stuff” as only an experienced decorator can. She is wonderful to work with and I highly recommend her.”
Dara Barker – Pacific Palisades
“Working with Rande is likened to spending time not only with a consummate professional in the interior design world but a friend.”
“I have worked with her many times over the past few years and she has always been there for me with my home décor needs. One of her many gifts is styling and I trust her implicitly to not only use what I already have in my home but apply her magical finishing touches that make every room look as if it is straight from the pages of the home décor magazines. Her knack for detail is astounding. Her standards are extremely high and will not accept anything less than perfect from the craftsmen she works with to the details of the final product. Rande thinks outside the box and isn’t afraid to combine eras, colors and materials. She can make any room look personalized to my needs as well as honor those of my husbands. One of my favorite things was to design a piece of furniture with her and create not only a look that was perfect for our home but a functional piece that provided us what we needed to live with. Whenever I need a new piece or a complete remodel of part of our home I look to Rande. I am happy to have met her and I feel blessed to have her assistance and guidance with our home.”
Dove Rose—Studio City
“The process was fun and the result exceeded our expectations.”
“We really enjoyed working with Rande. The process was fun and the result exceeded our expectations. We sought her guidance to decorate two rooms in our home within a tight deadline and subject to a tight budget. We had just moved in from a smaller home so we needed a lot of new furniture and we had committed to host a fundraiser within weeks. Rande listened to our needs — we wanted beautiful furniture and decor that would also work well with our very young children — and she presented us with a variety of options that we loved. Selecting the colors, furniture pieces, fabrics, and rugs was fun and effortless. Once the key decisions were made, Rande worked closely with the manufacturers and vendors to ensure everything went as planned. As an example, she made sure to be at our home when fixtures were installed to confirm that the chandelier was installed at the precise requisite height. Rande is a consummate professional and she sets a high bar but she does so with a wonderful attitude and a smile which ensures the process is pleasant for everyone involved. We are continuing to work with her on yet another room and we would — and do — recommend her to all our friends.”

“Working with Rande was truly an easy and enjoyable creative experience. We were thrilled with the two rooms she completed for us and are looking forward to starting on our master bedroom next. We loved her vision and appreciated her listening to ours. The end result was effortless and stunning!”

“I cannot say enough good things about Rande. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs a decorator/designer and a fun person to work with.”
“I had recently just moved from a large house into a smaller townhouse and had to buy all new furniture. Because I was working long hours, I had very little time to search on my own and decided I needed an experienced decorator to help me. I knew what I liked and what I didn’t like — I just couldn’t put it all together.
I met with Rande and told her of my dilemma. On her first visit and consultation we discussed the direction in which I would like to go and the colors and styles that I like. She was so friendly and easy to talk to. I knew that she would be great to work with. On our next visit she brought over all types of materials and pictures of furniture that she thought could work. She was not pushy at all and made me feel so comfortable. She had really listened to me and was able to put together my beautiful living room and den. Rande is always there when furniture is delivered and supervises to make sure that everything looks just right. She even found the perfect artwork. We are still working on other parts of my house. She is so efficient and we have so much fun putting everything together. She contacts me the minute she finds something that she thinks that I might like, yet, she respects that I am on somewhat of a budget. I cannot say enough good things about Rande. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs a decorator/designer and a fun person to work with. In fact, I will miss seeing her when we are done!”

“I found Rande to be not only a skilled designer but very personable and would readily turn to her with any future design projects and recommend her without hesitation.”
“I had the privilege of working with Rande on the redesign of several rooms in my home. She is a great listener and remained attentive to my concerns and vision for the outcome while guiding me in making novel and attractive design choices that I would not have considered on my own. She effectively incorporated my prized old pieces with new ones to achieve the desired contemporary look I was after. Her patience, enthusiasm and creativity made it a pleasure to work with her. I found Rande to be not only a skilled designer but very personable and would readily turn to her with any future design projects and recommend her without hesitation.”
