Meet The RWD Team
Led by Rebecca Ward, our Sacramento-based studio brings nearly two decades of interior design experience to full-service remodels, furnishings, and whole-home transformations.
Known for thoughtful planning, layered interiors, and a client experience rooted in care, we design homes that feel refined, functional, and deeply personal — supporting the way our clients gather, recharge, work, and move through everyday life.
Our work is guided by a simple belief: your surroundings matter. When a home is designed with beauty, intention, and ease, it has the power to support how you live, feel, and show up in the world.

What It Feels Like to Work With Us
Our studio is intentionally small, allowing each client to receive thoughtful attention, clear communication, and a highly personal design experience. Rebecca leads the creative vision for every project, while our team supports the many details that bring each design to life — from sourcing and documentation to coordination and final installation.
The result is a process that feels organized, collaborative, and deeply considered from beginning to end.
Ready to Create a Home That Feels Beautifully Yours?
We take on a limited number of full-service design projects each year to ensure every client receives the attention, creativity, and care their home deserves.
