Olivia Bednash

Interior Designer

Olivia joined the Sun Design team in 2021, as an Interior Designer. Her role is to assist our clients throughout the design process in the selection of all hard finishes, while keeping the overall design concept and budget in mind. Olivia has extensive knowledge of plumbing fixtures, tile, countertop materials, cabinet wood stains and door styles, hardware, lighting fixtures and paint. Further, she has a thorough understanding of each client’s vision and will create tailored presentations that exceed their very own remodeling objectives!

Olivia earned her bachelors degree in Interior Design from the Virginia Tech College of Architecture and Urban Studies. As well, she took time to travel to Germany where she studied with the Bauhaus Workshop, and Italy where she studied with the Santa Reparata International School of Art. Since then, she had experience working as an Interior Designer with both Havenly Interior Design and HLW, and is now pursuing her National Council for Interior Design Qualification (NCIDQ) certification.

When asked why she chose Sun Design, Olivia said, “When I was researching these firms in the DC and Northern VA area, I came across Sun Design and saw a video on their website of all the employees describing the company in 3 words. Everyone had such great things to say, with integrity, growth and family being repeated over and over. That really drew me to Sun Design, and I knew it was the right place for me.”

When she’s not on the job, Olivia loves anything artsy such as painting, digital artwork, and building small furniture items, which she often makes for friends and family. She also enjoys hiking, traveling, snowboarding, playing volleyball and anything that has to do with dogs and plants!

Our People

Our renovations are highly attributed to the hard work and dedicated time that our employees put into each project. We value our employees’ talents and abilities, allowing us to show our appreciation to them and providing them an excellent working environment. Working with Sun Design isn’t just working with someone who gets the job done, it’s working with a team that genuinely cares, values your concerns, wants your opinions and isn’t afraid to answer questions honestly. We take the time to get to know you and your vision to ensure your renovations, remodeling or addition exceeds your expectations and provides the “wow” effect every time you have guests to your home.

Why Us

~ Holistic Design Solutions ~ Structural Change ~ Wellness + Thriving in Place ~ Natural Light + Outdoor Connections ~

Sun Design brings all the tools to the table, removing the stress from the renovation process and keeping the impact of clients’ busy lives to a minimum.

You want a professional perspective on what can be done creatively to transform your living space, but, once decided, you want a contractor you can trust to complete the job as outlined while staying within the final budget. Regular consultation is appreciated, as well as being apprised of the unexpected, but you don’t have the time or opportunity to be constantly monitoring the project. This is why you need a contractor you can trust.

With Sun Design, you don’t have to worry about finding the right materials or subcontractors to bring your project to fruition. Sun Design provides expert guidance: from project design to selecting materials, to bringing in the right specialists to complete the job.
