Stacey's dream of working one-on-one with clients is central to her design philosophy. Her range of talents include freehand sketching, space planning, custom window treatments & bedding, tile layout and specification for flooring materials, fabrics, furniture, fixtures, accessories and anything else you desire for your update or remodel project. Stacey has lived in and around Seattle her whole life. She received her BA in Interior Design from Seattle Pacific University in 1999 and has worked in the Interior Design field since that time.

STACY'S INPUT WAS GOOD AND SHE WAS PROFESSIONAL, SUGGESTING COLORS I WOULD NOT HAVE CONSIDERED. HOWEVER, THOUGH OUR APPOINTMENT WAS BOOKED FOR ONE HOUR, SHE HAD IT IN HER BOOK FOR TWO, STAYED FOR ALMOST TWO AND THEN BILLED ME AT THE SAME RATE FOR THE ADDITIONAL HOUR WITHOUT APOLOGY, WHICH RATHER DAMPENED MY ENTHUSIASM.
Response from STACEY RILEY INTERIORS
"Hello [Member Name Removed] I have looked over your one invoice (actually dated 1/11/14) for an Angie's List "Big Deal" coupon. I can't remember the exact details of the coupon, but I suspect it was the coupon that gave you two hours of my time for $169.00-this included the trip charge for me to drive to Federal Way from Seattle. It seems that you are accusing me of just "hanging around" for an extra hour (which I have never done). I leave when I feel the client's needs have been met. If you had a problem or questions regarding my billing, I would have been more than happy to discuss those with you at that time. Instead, you kept your feelings to yourself for over a year, and then are unhappy that I haven't apologized for something I did not know you felt I had done. It seems to me that getting good input, a professional designer and color concepts that you would never have considered for $169.00 is a pretty good deal. I am sorry to hear you were dissatisfied. Stacey Riley"

Stacey Riley was delightful to work with.
She has a great color sense - she got me to paint my bathroom a color I never would have chosen ? and I totally love it!
She gave me some good color, appliance and counter-top ideas for my kitchen, and brought in lots of samples for me to test.
I definitely got my money's worth.
Most memorable, was that she renamed my downstairs apartment. I'd created it by locking one door, thus instantly making the original rec room into a living room complete with fireplace. The rest of the space already had a kitchen, bedroom and bath. I've been renting it for years as a mother-in-law apartment. Stacey said, "Fine. Call it a mother-in-law for rental purposes, but when you go to sell it, call it a Teen Retreat! This is a family size house and if the family has teens, both parents and teens are going to want a place for the latter to retreat, hang out with friends, make noise, and the like." I'd never heard the phrase (then again, I never had kids), but now it will be in my future marketing materials for sure!

Stacey is fun to work with and has a nice energy.
It went fine except that i purchased something without ever seeing it anywhere in real life first, and i do not recommend that.

"Hello (removed member name), thank you for the positive review regarding my personality-but I am sorry that your treatments didn't end up working out for you visually. We really tried to shove a lot of function AND style into those treatments and I am disappointed it didn't work out in the end. Good luck and I hope your replacement treatments are giving you what you need now. Stacey"

Stacey is always creative and clever in her ideas. Our house has gone from 'ok' to 'fabulous' and we've really enjoyed the process. The vendors she works with and recommends are A+ professionals, you cannot go wrong with them. The process has been so long because we were willing to wait for the 'right' piece to come to us, and have been pretty organic in our changes.
I highly recommend Stacey Riley Interiors!

I would love to work with you again, of course, and please remind me to give you 30 minutes free if we do have the chance! Take care! Stacey"

Challenging to schedule for appointments with numerous reschedules necessary. After arriving over a half hour late also had to leave early for another appointment which was disapointing. I found her be average as a designer. Please note she will not hang artwork.
Response from STACEY RILEY INTERIORS
"[Members Name], I am sorry that you felt my services were so inadequate. Even though my schedule is normally booked out about 1-2 weeks, I made the exception to accommodate you with an appointment in a shorter time frame. Due to your location in Woodinville, my location in West Seattle and my previously filled schedule, I arrived as soon as was possible given the short time frame (and as traffic allowed). I was unable to do much "designing" as most of what you requested was simply moving around items you already owned. Your comment about my being an "average designer" is unfounded. Please note that I went beyond my typical scope of work as many designers do not physically move or hang large items-we normally have someone on site to assist with these services. I was at your location as long as possible, but did have another appointment to get to that had been on my calendar for several weeks. I even arrived late to this client due to the time I devoted to your appointment. I am sorry you were not satisfied. Stacey"

Great. Stacey was pretty responsive and knows what she is doing. She has FANTASTIC ideas, I wish my husband and I could agree on the go forward budget but we could not at that point.
I have recently recommended her to a friend.

Stacy was extremely helpful with picking out paint for walls and trim colors. Her suggestions and helping me eliminate possible colors to get to the colors we ultimately picked are absolutely beautiful and really compliment the rooms and everything in them!!! I plan on using her services again and again and again!!!

Once she arrived, she quickly honed in on the colors we liked. She listened to what we like and what we didn't. With in 90 minutes we had a plan to address our paint color issues. She was nice and easy to work with. She also provided a lot of information about color planning and educated us along the way.

Stacey arrived at the appointed time with all of her color samples. I showed her the areas in my home that I needed help with as far as selecting paint colors. We discussed my general preferences relative to my furnishings, likes, and dislikes. She then narrowed the selections to the point I could choose colors. Stacey made it quite simple. I have always had difficulty with paint colors. They never seem to turn out the way I envision. She made suggestions based on color depth and continuity. She was a pleasure to work with.

Stacey was great! She came to my home on a Saturday because that was the best day for me. She was very gracious about arranging her schedule around mine. Since I am not at all good with colors, Stacey was extremely patient explaining about the "flow" of a home and how the colors could all go together without being too matchy-matchy.
Stacey was not pushy AT ALL, which was very important to me, she obviously knew her stuff, but she was nice and not at all snotty. After I paint, Stacey will come back and help me with the rest of my interior "design". I was concerned she would be intimidating, instead she was respectful of the colors I liked and was able to tactfully help me understand the flow idea.

The total process took about a year. We had two couches in the family/TV room, but with Stacey's advice, we kept one and gave the other one to the Salvation Army. Then came colors of walls and built-in bookcases. Stacey is really good with color and helped us choose wall colors that made for cozy rooms. Window treatments were last. Those were harder and took a long time because we tried to find roman shades that wouldn't burst our budget. When the shades were finally installed, the self-valances were not what we had expected, but Stacey worked with us and the shade company to make sure we were happy. The final result is cozy, warm and fun rooms where we can entertain guests and just plain hang out. Thanks, Stacey!

I was initially skeptical. My wife wanted to change around the colors throughout the interior of the house, and I thought that we could do a fine job choosing the colors ourselves. But via Angie's List, I bought my wife (as a Valentine's Day present) a multi-hour consultation with Stacey. It turned out to be quite worthwhile, and I'm glad that we did it. Stacey was very helpful in recommending colors that would go together well, contrast with the trim, etc.... We did not want her to make the decisions for us, and she didn't. But she was an excellent advisor, and quickly understood what we were trying to achieve and our constraints, and she helped us arrive at the right decisions. I give Stacey high marks for her knowledge, her speed at intuiting what we wanted and the help that we needed, and assisting us with making the right decisions without trying to force a different aesthetic on us. She was very pleasant and easy to work with as well.

I enjoying the services Stacey provided. She was very helpful in helping me choose a color scheme for the interior of my house. It is a larger house and she assisted me with a plan and left me with color swaths. I liked that she had suggestions but was very focused on what my preferences were. She was a pleasure to work with.

I am very disappointed in this provider and would not use her again. She came to my home to look over the areas I needed help with, spent about an hour with me discussing what I wanted and didn't take any notes or measurements at all. Then she sent emails wanting to know my budget for different parts of the project. I provided that information as best I could even though I had no idea what current prices were. She said it was "essential" for her to proceed. She also sent me some links to places I had mentioned to her which I didn't need since I already had that information. What I wanted and never got was a plan for my living room (furniture layout was the key element because the space is awkward). I had explained this to her on the very first contact phone call. But her idea was to have me spend thousands of dollars and give her a budget and my design ideas. If she had given me what I asked for - a layout for the living room - I would have been happy. But I ended up doing more work answering her questions about my "budget" and never got a layout for the living room. After a long string of emails including some where she indicated she had been overwhelmed by the Angies List response, I finally gave up in frustration. In the end, I had a group of friends come over for an evening and we kicked some ideas around until something made sense. During the last 18 months, I have purchased items on sale from various places and I am very happy with the result, no thanks to this provider.
Note to Angies List: I saved emails if you want to see them to substantiate what I have said in this review. I didn't do a review sooner because I don't like being negative and I couldn't think of anything good to say on this one. But since you keep asking me for a review, here it is. I just can't find anything good to say. In fact, I took out a lot of what I initially wrote.

Response from STACEY RILEY INTERIORS
"(member name removed), it is unfortunate that you would have so many negative things to say about me and my services. I must say that you seem to be unusually angry and your response seems very over-the-top. I am sorry that I was unable to meet your needs. I too have our email exchanges, and actually repeatedly (and clearly) ask for information and responses from you, which mostly go unanswered. You started the project with a $30,000 budget (given to me by YOU), but because of the downturn in the economy you needed to put a hold on the project. I am happy to work within ALL ranges of budgets and often do, and would have done so for you. I am happy to hear that you were able to problem solve the layout issues with your friends, but you were NOT clear that this was what you had finally decided you wanted. You were pleasant in your emails (as was I) until one day you decide you weren't happy and stopped communicating with me. Had you communicated your feelings in a constructive manner, I would have been happy to give you a refund. I am not an unreasonable person, but you make yourself sound like one in this review. You aren't representing the situation truthfully and this just sounds like sour grapes and nothing more."

The experience with them was terrific. Stacey was really helpful and she helped us hone in on some of the different options we were looking at, so she really works well. I like that she wanted to know what was right for us and she went from out viewpoint and then she added in her expertise, so we thought that was really a great approach. She did great follow-up with us, very easy to work with.

Once we arrived at a mutually convenient date for her visit, Ms. Riley showed up ready to help me decide how to address two very different color and lighting challenges in my 1911 bungalow. By showing color swatches and asking good questions, she helped me narrow to a color palette that would blend with other colors already the house. She also suggested specific lighting solutions for my dark kitchen without a complete re-do, which I did not want to take on. She was very helpful, personable and professional, and I got a very good deal in working with her. Two neighbors who were visitng when she arrived stayed throughout her visit might well be seeking her assistence with thier houses.

After Stacey was delayed a smidge by traffic, we did a walk through the rooms I am going to be painting. I showed her the colors I was most attracted to from design magazines and we started with those. We made some adjustments after moving the color examples around each room until we found what worked.
I am very happy with the colors we chose, how well Stacey listened to my needs and likes!
She even liked my dogs!
