Vacation Rental Designers

Vacation Rental Designers The premier community for designers working in vacation rentals and residential projects. *Why Join VRD? That's where VRD comes in. Yes, all of them. Link in Bio.

Access exclusive brand partnerships, learn proven design strategies, and connect with industry experts. Because Your Design Business Deserves More

Let's be honest: running a design business isn't just about creating beautiful spaces. It's about managing vendor relationships, hunting down the best prices, and somehow finding time to actually grow your business. Think of VRD as your secret weapon.

We're not just another design collective—we're your backstage pass to insider pricing, your direct line to industry experts, and your connection to a community of designers who get it.

*The Perks? They're Game-Changing

Remember the last time you wished you had stocking dealer status with that perfect vendor? Or when you needed insight on pricing a complex project? As a VRD member, you'll have access to exclusive brand partnerships that transform how you do business. These aren't just small discounts—we're talking amazing discounts, custom products, and free shipping from carefully selected brand partners. And here's the best part: these benefits apply to all your projects. Whether you're designing a vacation rental in the Hamptons or a primary residence in Portland, your VRD membership works as hard as you do.

*Education That Actually Matters

Forget generic webinars. Our live Q&As connect you directly with industry experts and insiders who share real, actionable insights. We're talking about the kind of knowledge that turns good designers into great businesspeople.

*A Community That Has Your Back

"Come for the savings. Stay for the community." That's not just a catchy phrase—it's the reality of VRD. Our members don't just share resources; they share success. They collaborate instead of compete. They lift each other up. Don't take our word for it. Here's what our members say:

"VRD has changed our interior design business...now we have all the processes, resources, and brands at our fingertips we never had access to before. It's changed the way we onboard new clients, and our business is booming!" - Kerry McHugh Upton + Tricia McHugh, The Getaway Girls

*The bottom line

Every day you're not a VRD member is a day you're leaving money on the table. It's a day without insider pricing, without community support, without the resources that could take your business to the next level.

*Ready to transform your design business? Because in the end, VRD isn't just about discounts—it's about giving you everything you need to create profitable and beautiful design projects. It's about making your business work better, smarter, and more profitably. Your future clients are waiting. Your fellow designers are waiting. Your next level of success is waiting. Join VRD today.

From Member to Brand Partner: Wild Birch Design Joins VRD

Wild Birch Design, led by longtime VRD member and now brand partner Kate Robinson, is joining the VRD community as our dedicated landscape resource.

Get direct access to experts like Kate, industry partnerships, exclusive resources, and the kind of support you won’t find anywhere else.

Too often overlooked, a quality rug pad is essential to any well-designed space. In short-term rentals, rug pads reduce slips, protect your floors, simplify maintenance, and help your property always look polished and guest-ready. In residential projects, they keep steps soft and quiet while extending the life of every rug.

Every summer, High Point showrooms open their doors for the Sizzle Sale—a treasure hunt of floor samples, returns, overstock, one-of-a-kinds, prototypes, and even the occasional “scratch and dent” piece, all at can’t-miss prices.

Our VRD VIP experience gives you exclusive access to to-the-trade-only showrooms and spaces most people never get to see. It’s your chance to score deals, discover hidden gems, and shop like a true industry insider.

But hurry, space is limited and the early bird pricing of $499 for non-members and $399 for VRD Members only lasts until July 15th!

This is going to be HOT~ Link in bio to register TODAY!

When we talk about community over competition, That's not just a hashtag for us—it's the reality of VRD. Our members don't just share resources; they share success. They collaborate instead of compete. They lift each other up.

This isn’t generic “support.” It’s a full ecosystem designed to remove friction and accelerate growth.

🎓 Education that moves you forward

• Direct access to industry experts who can answer the questions Google can’t.
• Partnerships with brands and educators who shape the industry from the inside.
• Jessica's own experience as a leader, which means you’re learning from someone who has already tested, failed, refined, and succeeded.

🧰 Resources that save you years

• Curated tips, tools, and best practices from across the industry.
• Systems and shortcuts that took her years to discover.
• A filter for what actually works—so you don’t waste time on noise.

💸 Discounts that change your margins

• Negotiated trade pricing with top-tier brands but YOU build the relationships, not some designer that is taking a cut of the profits in a buying group.
• Access to deals you simply wouldn’t get without VRD's reputation and relationships.
• Better margins, better inventory options, and more room to reinvest in your business.

🚀 Why this combination is so powerful
Most people get one of these things—education or resources or discounts. We're giving you all three, which means:

• You learn faster.
• You operate smarter.
• You earn more.
• You avoid the mistakes that slow most businesses down.

This is the kind of support that turns potential into momentum.

We are excited to announce new VRD Brand Partner, Trisha Patel Art Trisha Patel Art .

Trisha Patel Wallcoverings is where symbolism, storytelling, and wellness come together—on your walls. Trisha brings a unique blend of art, science, and intention to every project, drawing on her background as a critical care pharmacist and her deep study of neuroaesthetics through the Science of Design program. What does that mean for our Members? Materials and designs that support human wellbeing, with PVC-free and safety-certified options, and patterns that do more than decorate a room—they tell a story, spark emotion, and foster healing. With over 10 material options and full customization, Trisha’s process is truly bespoke—designed for designers who want their work to feel as meaningful as it looks.

Trisha’s work is rooted in the belief that what goes on your walls should be as meaningful as what’s inside them. With a process that’s as collaborative as it is creative, and a philosophy that bridges art, science, and wellness, Trisha Patel Wallcoverings is for designers who want to deliver more than just beauty—they want to create spaces that support healing, spark conversation, and feel entirely their own.

Give Trisha Patel Art a follow and check out her website (link in her bio).
