RCQ Design, LLC: The Art of Custom Furnishings, Reupholstery, and Handcrafted Furniture
At the core of every exceptional interior is furniture that fits—not just in size, but in lifestyle, comfort, and character. RCQ Design, LLC is a Northern New Jersey–based interior design firm specializing in custom furnishings, reupholstery, and luxury custom furniture created exclusively for each client. With decades of industry expertise, RCQ Design delivers interiors defined by craftsmanship, personalization, and timeless design.
Led by principal designer Rina Capodieci-Quinn, RCQ Design is known for sourcing, creating, and refining custom home furnishings that cannot be found in traditional furniture stores. From a one-of-a-kind custom sofa to fully tailored custom upholstery, every piece is thoughtfully designed, meticulously crafted, and built to last.

Made-to-order seating for optimal comfort and scale

Custom Sofas & Custom Sectionals Built for Your Space
Finding the perfect sofa or sectional off the shelf can feel nearly impossible, and sometimes, it is. RCQ Design specializes in designing custom sofas and custom sectionals that are tailored to your exact space, seating needs, and style preferences.
From depth and seat height to arm style and cushion fill, every detail is customized. Our luxury custom furniture approach ensures that your seating not only looks beautiful—but functions flawlessly within the room. Each piece actually must be “Rina-approved,” as the office calls it, to make sure its comfort is to her standards.
Clients frequently choose RCQ Design for:
Oversized or uniquely shaped living rooms
Open-concept homes requiring scaled seating
Families needing durable, performance upholstery
Elegant spaces requiring refined silhouettes
New construction homes in need of oversized, custom pieces
A custom sectional or custom sofa designed by RCQ often becomes the foundation of the entire room.

Custom Curtains & Custom Drapery for a Finished Interior
Furniture alone does not complete a space—window treatments are essential. RCQ Design creates and facilitates the install of fully tailored custom curtains and custom drapery that serve to complement each room’s furnishings and architecture.
Custom drapery services include:
Fabric selection and trim selection
Pinch pleat, ripple fold, and tailored header styles
Motorized and manual hardware solutions
Layered treatments with sheers and panels
Blackout shade incorporation
When paired with custom furnishings and luxury custom furniture, professionally designed custom curtains add warmth, scale, and sophistication. Senior design Amanda Arditti often pleads, “no more naked windows,” as she strongly believes window treatments are key to completing a home.
Integrating Custom Furnishings Into Remodeling & New Construction
RCQ Design frequently collaborates on remodeling and new construction projects, ensuring custom home furnishings are planned alongside architectural decisions. This allows furniture, upholstery, and drapery to feel seamless within the finished space—not added as an afterthought.
By incorporating handcrafted furniture, custom upholstery, and luxury custom furniture early in the process, RCQ Design creates interiors that feel cohesive, intentional, and complete from day one.
