Situated in the heart of the famed El Paseo shopping district in greater Palm Springs – home to the world’s most iconic display of preserved mid-century modern architecture – the debut location will host the brand’s most tenured designers, interior architects and stylists. A multidisciplinary practice, RH Interior Design boasts a global portfolio of celebrated, internationally published projects from San Francisco to Shanghai, Miami to Milan, Los Angeles to London, Pittsburgh to Paris, Toronto to Tokyo and Denver to Dubai.
Representing the first phase of the brand’s broader vision to create a comprehensive design ecosystem in the region, future plans include the 2025 opening of a Design Gallery featuring artistic lifestyle installations of RH Collections by internationally acclaimed designers, followed by the development of a hospitality concept and an expansive outdoor oasis.
RH Chairman and CEO Gary Friedman commented, “Palm Desert marks a pivotal moment for our brand as we introduce our first standalone RH Interior Design office in a region celebrated for its architectural significance. With great admiration for the city and its rich design history, we were inspired to take the first step in creating a larger design ecosystem here, offering clients an unparalleled space to collaborate and imagine extraordinary spaces.”
A full-service interior design office that is open to the public, the space will serve as an immersive destination for collaboration and ideation on projects of any scope, indoors or outdoors, anywhere in the world. In addition to offering the brand’s first two service levels – Foundational, expedited design for one-room projects, and Comprehensive, holistic design for two-rooms to an entire home – RH Interior Design Palm Desert will offer Bespoke design services for the first time in a physical space, allowing guests to experience whole-home transformations from concept to completion.
Upon arrival, just inside the lobby, visitors will discover the first North American RH Architecture & Design Library – following its counterpart at RH England, the Gallery at the Historic Aynho Park – where guests can find a carefully compiled collection of contemporary books within architecture, interior design, and landscape architecture from some of the most influential creators of the last century.
Commanding the center of the library is the first modern-language edition of De Architectura Libri Dece (The Ten Books on Architecture), printed in Italy in 1521. Authored by Roman master architect Vitruvius during the 1st century B.C., the treatise has served as the foundational textbook on classical architecture for centuries. It also serves as the pillar of the RH Design Ethos – a study of balance, symmetry and perfect proportions.
Situated beneath a soaring rotunda illuminated by a spectacular Audubon chandelier hanging 30 feet above a bespoke solid Botticino marble tub, a Waterworks Showroom presents a curated assortment of bath and kitchen fittings, fixtures and surfaces – offering RH clients the ability to seamlessly incorporate the brand’s products into their projects.
RH Interior Design Palm Desert features classical arrangements of RH Collections set within rooms that are beautifully appointed with hand-lime washed walls and artisan-crafted Portuguese hardwood floors. A comprehensive design library at the heart of the practice showcases RH’s vast assortment of textiles, furniture and lighting finishes. This interactive space also features private client presentation rooms with state-of-the-art technology, enclosed by contemporary shoji doors that provide privacy while preserving the building’s natural openness and light.
RH Interior Design Palm Desert is located at 73-470 El Paseo, Palm Desert. The practice can be reached at 760.766.7474. Hours of operation are Monday through Saturday, 10am to 6pm; Sunday, 11am to 5pm.
