The History of Distinctive Home Interiors

Jennifer Reynolds-Garcia, of Richmond, VA, designs homes from conception to completion, and everything in between. She is best known for assisting clients in pushing their great ideas even further than they imagined. She is a Certified Interior Designer, and has been a member of the Interior Design Society since 2008. Jennifer began her career working for RIST Corporation in Washington, DC in their textiles department. Jennifer graduated in 2003 from Marymount University in Arlington, VA with a B.A. in Interior Design. Post graduation, she was hired as a lighting designer with Dominion Electric Supply, but still had a desire to do full service interior design. In June 2003, she was hired as assistant to the principal at the small but prestigious firm of Bartolomei & Company in Washington, DC’s Georgetown neighborhood. Jennifer worked in tandem with Ms. Lisa Bartolomei to style beautiful residences in Washington, DC, Maryland, Northern Virginia, and East Hampton, New York. A bonus of working with Ms. Bartolomei’s firm, was also working with Room Doctors, a separate firm within the firm, that specializes in using a client’s existing décor, but refining it.

Jennifer’s return to Richmond came on the heels of a life-change—a new addition to her family. Jennifer longed for a return to her roots, and the dream of having a family business was realized. In the spring of 2006, Jennifer joined forces with her father, Larry Reynolds, of Larry Reynolds Painting renown, to form Distinctive Home Interiors. As a creative team, they are able to provide a laundry list of services that best suit their clients’ needs. Jennifer specializes in full-service interior design, interior refining, organization, color consultation, and antiques scouting and sales.
