2005 – 2007
Gacek Design Group’s first clients were Richard’s existing clients from a previous design firm. These clients were great collaborators who valued his expertise and followed him on his journey to start his own business. We are forever grateful to Judd Builders, Cornerstone Communities, and Ria Mar Restaurant.

CORNERSTONE COMMUNITIES: The partnership with Cornerstone Communities began with the design of an amenity space for the multifamily, Terrazza at Newtown Square. This was our first development project where Gacek Design Group designed interior finishes and millwork as well as the merchandising. This project also included design for common areas and model homes. Richard Gacek was so influenced by the client’s narrative of Terrazza that his design vision focused on the story of an Italian villa with European detailing in color and natural materials. High end details were used and specialty trade partners were brought in. Richard recalls his experience installing the custom Murano glass chandelier at 20+ feet above ground!
