Dionne was invaluable in helping me set up my new Brooklyn apartment from scratch - from picking out the best paint colors to getting the right kind of window treatments, kids' furniture sets, and finding me the most amazing, reasonable and reliable contractors to get the entire place done up right. Absolutely the best!

HI, We completely we redid our Manhattan home and I cannot imagine all the hues of yellow and gold in damask, solid silks and silk plaides working together in such magnificent harmony with out Dionne's suggestions and coordination of it all. Her attention to detail with our Sconces, finials, mirrors and our paintings make each room feel balance and elagant.

Dionne is a fantastic designer who brings many ideas and is well connected. She is great at listening to her clients, and works hard to make sure the job is done on time and on budget. I highly recommend Dionne.

Dionne Rivera is the most talented Interior Designer I have worked with. We have pied a terre in San Francisco and a rural ranch style home in Sonoma County. My husband and I have very different tastes. Dionne was able to marry my Francophile tendencies with my husbands's American country slant. Dionne is very In tune with the trends but doesn't force something the client is uncomfortable with. The process of overseeing and working with contractors and vendors to stay on schedule can be challenging. Dionne handled all involved with professionalism and made the project fun for everyone, Most important she finished on time. We are thrilled with our homes and I would highly recommend Dionne.

I am very happy to recommend Dionne Rivera as a designer. I love the work she did on our apartment. She helped my vision become reality. She found wonderful workmen to copy fairly inexpensively the pieces of furniture I wanted. The fabric selection was inspired. My husband and I could not be happier - J.S.

When I bought my co-op in a brownstone in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn I hired Dionne Rivera Design to do extensive renovations including a new kitchen, bathroom, black marble mantle for my fireplace, hardwood floors, crown and base moldings, paint and light fixtures. Dionne has impeccable taste, access to hard-to-find resources and she stayed within my budget. I couldn’t be happier with the results and would recommend her services to anyone looking for a talented interior designer.

I have worked with Dionne Rivera on many projects - she is a great designer! Dionne has an extensive knowledge of the design business and she has a particular talent for space planning, always managing to optimize the space she is working on to full effect - this is difficult to do well! Dionne has great taste in furnishings and fabrics, understated elegance. I worked most recently with her on a complete renovation of a very elegant New York City apartment, she turned an outdated space into a truly beautiful Art Deco inspired home. Custom furnishings and cabinetry, a beautiful in home library and a Zen meditation room were included. I would not hesitate to recommend Dionne Rivera for any project, she is a conscientious and hard worker. She is also a lot of fun and I have always enjoyed working with her.
