We work with clients throughout Vancouver, West Vancouver, Whistler, Vancouver Island, Salt Spring Island and the Gulf Islands, and are available for select residential projects across Canada and the United States.

Our approach is highly considered and deeply personal. From the earliest architectural planning through to furniture, art and final styling, we create calm, timeless interiors that balance beauty, function and well-being.

Each year, we take on a select number of projects, allowing us to remain closely involved throughout the design process and to provide a highly personalized level of service.

Types of Projects We Take On

New Build Interior Design

Full-service design for custom homes, from early planning through furnishing.

Full-Service Interior Design for Custom Homes. We provide comprehensive interior design for custom new construction, working alongside architects, builders and consultants from the early planning stages through construction, furnishing and final installation.

Early involvement allows us to consider the architecture and interiors as one cohesive experience. We help refine layouts, proportions, circulation, lighting, materials and architectural details while considering how the home will ultimately be furnished and lived in.

Our new build interior design services may include space planning and floor-plan refinement, interior architectural detailing, custom millwork and cabinetry, kitchen and bathroom design, material and finish selections, plumbing and lighting specifications, electrical planning, construction documentation, 3D visualization, builder coordination, site involvement, furniture procurement, art curation and final styling.

The result is a home in which the architecture, materials, furnishings and atmosphere feel intentionally connected from the beginning.We work on custom homes throughout Vancouver and British Columbia and are available for select new construction projects across Canada and the United States.

Renovation Interior Design

Full-service design for substantial and whole-home renovations.

Andrea Rodman Interiors provides full-service interior design for substantial and whole-home residential renovations.

We guide the interior from early programming and space planning through design development, construction documentation, finish selection, custom millwork, lighting, furnishing and installation.

For renovations involving architectural or structural changes, we collaborate with architects, engineers, builders and other consultants as required, helping coordinate the many elements needed to create a cohesive finished home.

Our renovation work may include floor-plan development, interior architectural detailing, kitchens and bathrooms, custom cabinetry and millwork, materials and finishes, plumbing fixtures, architectural and decorative lighting, electrical planning, construction drawings, 3D visualization, construction coordination, furniture, art and styling.

Our focus is not simply on updating a home, but on reconsidering how it functions, feels and supports the way our clients want to live.

We primarily take on comprehensive residential renovations where we can create a strong and cohesive design vision throughout the home.

Vacation Homes & Second Residences

Homes designed to feel restorative and connected to place.

We specialize in creating vacation homes, second residences and destination properties that feel restorative, comfortable and deeply connected to their surroundings.

We work throughout Vancouver Island, Salt Spring Island and the Gulf Islands, as well as Whistler and other destination markets, and are available to travel for select projects throughout Canada and the United States.

Vacation properties require a particular balance of beauty, durability and ease. We consider how the home will be used by family and guests, how it functions when the owners are away, and how materials and furnishings will perform over time.

Depending on the project, our involvement may begin with a new build or renovation and continue through complete furnishing, procurement, installation and styling.

For clients who do not live near the property full-time, our comprehensive approach provides one central design team overseeing the interior vision and coordinating closely with architects, builders, trades, suppliers and installers.

The result is a home that feels considered rather than temporary—a true retreat designed for the way you want to live when you are there.

Turnkey Interior Decorating & Furnishing

Complete furnishing and installation for homes already built.

Complete Furnishing, Procurement & Installation. Our turnkey furnishing and decorating service is designed for clients who want a beautifully resolved home without having to manage the hundreds of individual decisions, orders and installation details required to bring it together.

We create complete furnishing concepts that may include furniture, custom pieces, decorative lighting, rugs, window coverings, textiles, art, objects and accessories.

Our team manages the process from initial concept through sourcing, specification and procurement to freight coordination, receiving, storage, delivery, installation and final styling.

We are particularly experienced in coordinating the complex logistics involved in furnishing vacation homes, second residences and destination properties. Whether a home is located on an island, in a remote setting, or farther afield, we can oversee the movement of furnishings from multiple makers and suppliers and coordinate receiving, delivery and installation at the destination.

For select projects, our turnkey furnishing service can extend beyond British Columbia to residences throughout Canada, the United States and international destinations, allowing clients to work with one design team from concept through final installation.

Where appropriate, we use detailed floor plans and photorealistic 3D visualization so clients can understand the overall composition of the home before purchasing begins.

Rather than selecting individual pieces in isolation, we consider proportion, materiality, colour, texture, art, architecture and negative space together so that the finished interior feels collected, calm and cohesive.

Our turnkey decorating service is particularly well suited to entire homes, newly completed residences, vacation properties, second homes and uniquely located residences where comprehensive design, procurement and installation are especially valuable.
