From there, clients schedule an appointment at one of Richmond American’s Home Galleries, which allows future homeowners to design their home from the inside out with a walking tour of the design center. Every aspect of the home’s design, from flooring to paint finishes, is available for clients to select, and clients can even bring their own samples and suggestions to Gallery appointments.
