We have spent decades observing and researching how design trends have shaped the way we experience spaces. The result: luxury hotel design principles have not only stood the test of time, but make any space to which they are applied absolutely stunning. To build on this foundation of equipping ourselves to offer you the best results, we have developed our proprietary Hotel Luxe Effect design that is anchored by a set of key principles: 1 // Drama 2 // Richness 3 // Comfort 4 // Activation 5 // Composition Each one is further broken down into point of application that we use to infuse spaces with the kind of atmosphere and satisfying it factor that can hardly be put into words. It simply must be experienced. See how our idea homes showcase these principles >

Often, design projects are some of the most expensive and complicated undertakings a person will make - other than having children or getting married. RS was founded with the mission to offer clients an exciting, easy-to-follow design experience guided by a trained professional and using a proven design system to make ANY space outstanding - our Hotel Luxe Effect. Our clients have said that they are super happy they chose to work with us because we actively communicate even after they pay invoices, help them see where their dollars are going, and elevate and inspire their design vision in a way that gives them joy for years on end. Also, we are quite different from most any design services company you will come across in that we: Offer architecture, outdoor, and interior design all in one company. Are the only professional design company that offers the Hotel Luxe Effect proven success system. You benefit from our creative expertise that spans not only design but also cost and resale. While fully custom design is our signature offer, we also leverage stock plans as a wonderful way to streamline the design process. Robyn Studios was founded in April of 2020 by licensed architect Robyn Thomas as the formalization of her over twenty-two-year span of design experience. In the years since, the studios have become a highly sought-after regional design fulfillment and resource center for families, business owners, HOA boards, builders, and a growing list of industry professionals. Robyn is NCARB certified. This prized industry certification provides and expedites reciprocity, an agreement across all 55 US jurisdictions. While based in metro Atlanta, we operate in Alabama, Georgia, and Florida and are available for select projects nationwide. Our team continues to grow to meet the increasing needs of discerning clients. Our website is more than just a brochure about us. It is filled to the brim with design resources that you can successfully implement without paying a dime in design fees until you are ready. Why would we offer this benefit? Because we want you to see for yourself why we are the design ally you've been looking for, putting the best resources and expertise right at your fingertips. The fact that you are here means you want an easy yet elevated design experience with a relatable, fun-loving, knows-what-they-are-doing designer that is committed to understanding what you want and getting you there. We know what it's like to want a living space that is beautifully arranged and rewarding to be in. We also know what it's like to buy and buy and buy and still not have that result. Clients have also shared with us the frustration of hiring a designer only to end up with a design that just simply doesn't work. Before talking to us or another prospective design partner, consider the following: // Do I want to DIY any part of this project? // What is my investement range? // When do I want to start? // Do I need to have this work done in phases? // What level of involvement do I need - just initial concepts or full installation? // Do I understand the benefits of having a contractor or other professional involved from the beginning? Document your requirements with photos and details such as timeline, budget, and priorities. Pricing systems vary, so gather information on what each provider includes in their pricing metric, such as cost-per-square-foot, cost per phase, or hourly rate.

A project budget consists of more than the construction costs. This list covers some additional items that should be accounted for: Demolition and proper disposal of items Contractor’s profit - typically 20% or so Site development costs Design, engineering, architecture and other consultants’ fees - at least 8% Furniture, Fixtures and Equipment (FF&E) Administrative costs Moving and storage costs Shipping, freight and installation costs Sales tax Construction contingency - at least 5% If you also want interior furnishings, a good set of numbers is: 1. Furnishings themselves: 10 to 20% of the home’s overall value. For example, expect to pay between $50,000 and $100,000 to furnish a home worth $500,000 if you will shop and design it yourself or with the add of a retail store's complimentary design services. For professional design and the lasting polished results it gets you, increase your anticipated investment by $10,000 to $20,000. Our suite of consultations and right-fit interior design services can reduce this investment substantially while getting you well on your way to having the hotel luxe effect for yourself. 2. The “other costs” category, which include freight charges, cleaning costs, installation and sales tax: A typical formula is 15 – 20% of the overall budget for accessories, 8.5% for sales tax and 12 – 15% for freight and delivery. For a $500,000 home, expect to add at least 36% of the range from line 1 above for and pay an additional $11,340 to $18,000, for a sample total range of $42,840 to $68,000.
