Georgia Kukoski
Georgia Kukoski, Senior Designer with Closet Factory loves organization and brings her eye for design to every project. Older homes as well as new homes need organization, and Georgia embraces the challenges of any space. Organization is always paramount, but the aesthetics of an organized space can make all the difference. A few tweaks can bring a space from “nice” to “wow”. Georgia loves to hear her customer say “wow”!

Georgia graduated from Virginia Tech with a Bachelor’s degree in Marketing. She is a native Richmonder and lives in the Fan with her family. In 2011, Georgia joined Closet Factory as a designer. She has been involved in the Central Virginia Chapter of the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI). Georgia designed the Pantry for the 2012 RSOL Designer House, as well as closets for the 2013 Street of Dreams and Home Builder’s Association 2014 Homearama. Her Master Closet was recognized as the Best Master Suite in the 2014 Homearama.

Ryan Bundy
Creating beautiful rooms in which clients’ practical needs and aesthetic interests are integrated is Ryan Bundy’s priority with each project. Rooms in which people love to live unite lifestyle demands with individual style and character. Ryan enjoys the creative challenge inherent in effectively assimilating older styles and family pieces with contemporary details and accessories. Her focus on repurposing furnishings and redesigning spaces to suit her clients’ needs serve to cultivate homes that are unique, efficient and refined. A hallmark of Ryan’s style is her emphasis on reinvigorating cherished and well-used pieces that clients already have in their homes. “Using what one has to transition toward  what one wants contributes to rooms that feel familiar, but fresh. In both larger and smaller homes, resourcefulness and imagination are critical when decorating a space. Rethinking the function of rooms, as well as editing and modernizing furnishings all contribute to the improvement of an existing area or the completion of a functional and attractive new space.”

Ryan holds B.S. and M.A. degrees from The University of Georgia and The College of William and Mary and opened Dorothy Cook Interiors in 2013. She has worked with clients in Virginia and the Carolinas as they renovate, furnish and decorate their homes.
