Robin studied interior design and psychology at the University of Wisconsin but followed her heart and flew for a major airline after college. She began her design business in 2002 when her 4 children entered high school and college.
Robin is currently taking courses on green design and universal design. Being a designer means staying on top of current trends and not becoming stagnant. So many exciting and wonderful things are happening in interior design today.
Robin is a very proud member of ASID (American Society of Interior Designers ).
She donates her time to local charities and decorates for events in her area.
She, along with other local designers, decorated the USGA museum in Far Hills, New Jersey for the holidays in 2008 and 2009. She has donated her time to a nationally recognized cancer hospital for a home makeover for a cancer survivor.
She has even had her clients donating the "gently" used furnishings, cabinets, appliances, and household items to local charities. Giving back to the community is a very good "Green" idea.

TESTIMONIALS
I really enjoyed working with Robin over the past year on our home. We started our design relationship over the new redesigned kitchen, then we moved on to my master bedroom. Now we are working on my son's bedroom, updating our living room, and powder room. She is a professional who takes great pride in her work and I would highly recommend her services.

It's been a few weeks since the kitchen was finished and we still can't believe what you were able to create for us in this space.
When family and friends visit they are drawn first to the glass tile back splash because it is so striking and unusual. Then they notice how beautiful the granite is and how warm and welcoming the cabinetry is.
My favorite part of the renovation are the high end appliances. I am having such a great time cooking the the Wolf range. It is a joy to use these appliances. I feel inspired.
Mostly we want to thank you for seeing the possibilities and bringing them all together in a remarkably short time. Your design for the cabinets took them so far beyond the straight row of cabinets I've always had. Your idea to take down the knee wall opens the whole space and makes it seem so much larger. Your clever idea to open the one cabinet into the eating area makes much better use of the space.
And, it was a pleasure to work with the professionals you brought to the job. Like you, they are talented professionals.
Thanks so much for everything.

Creating wonderful interiors while incorporating a client's vision is the true essence of what makes working with Robin such a joyful experience. Her personal dedication to details and her common sense approach of what really needs to be incorporated into a space makes her a standout among today's designers. Her sensibility and her passion for interior designing was infectious!"

"I would like to recommend the services of Robin LaMonte and Rooms Revamped. Robin helped my husband and I with redecorating our family room, and with wall color selection for other rooms in our home. Robin took the time to get to know us, and worked with us to achieve the style of room that would work for our family. She is very easy to work with -she listens to your input, and formulates a plan based on excellent design principles. Robin works within your budget, and is mindful of what will work for your lifestyle. We were a little worried about working with a decorator, but Robin put us right at ease, and helped us tremendously. We love the new room - it is comfortable and inviting. I look forward to working with her again."

In the summer of 2007, my husband and I decided to update our home. The house was only 11 years old but most of our furnishings were about 20 years old and our kitchen and bathrooms were builder’s basics. Being a Basking Ridge resident, I wanted to work with someone who was local and we proceeded to check the internet for designer resources. I contacted Robin LaMonte (Rooms Revamped, Inc) and was satisfied from my first encounter. Robin is reliable, budget conscientious, honest, hard working, and has lots of ideas and suggestions. She consistently delivered what she promised. She obtained bids for all purchases and provided honest opinions on how we should proceed. She was at our home to supervise as needed and to make sure the contractors provided superior service. Robin helped to beautify my kitchen, family room, foyer, bedroom and bathrooms. She knew our budget and challenged herself not to exceed it. We are thrilled with the changes and receive compliments from friends and family. Thank you Robin for a job well done…looking forward to working with you on the next project whenever that may be. -Abby Rost-Katz, Basking Ridge, New Jersey " Designing for others and including them in the design process is such a wonderful experience for my clients and myself."
