Our Story
Our Team
Brought together by our passion for making houses feel like home, the team at Rice Design & Build is meticulously organized, creative, and easy to work with.
Hunter & Charlotte Rice
Founders
Hunter and Charlotte Rice come from vast backgrounds in the construction and real estate industries. Hunter was raised in San Antonio, TX where he was immersed in his family's custom home building business. Before moving to San Diego in 2015, he worked for his family's company managing a multitude of custom home builds. Charlotte, a San Diego native, grew up and eventually joined her family's real estate investment firm where she oversaw all construction projects across their portfolio. Both Hunter and Charlotte fell in love with the fast paced industries and grew a passion for starting a firm of their own. It was fate that they met each other in 2017 and they quickly bonded over their mutual love for improving spaces for others and within their own home. Hunter and Charlotte are both meticulously organized, creative and fun: the key components for an efficient and enjoyable partnership.

Why Rice Design & Build
We deliver a refreshingly transparent design and remodeling experience rooted in craftsmanship and guided by your vision.
Professionalism & Attention
Every project has a dedicated site supervisor and designer — ensuring high attention to detail and fewer handoffs. In addition, we have a trusted roster of subcontractors. Working with the best reduces delays, miscommunication, and quality control issues.
Clear Communication
We’re known for prompt responses and clear updates, meaning you’ll never wonder what the status of your project is. We provide transparency to give you confidence at every stage.
Thoughtful, Tailored Process
Our process is structured into clear phases, making it easy to collaborate. We offer everything from interior design-only to full design-build services. Unlike a typical GC who sends clients to pick materials themselves, we lead with a design-first approach — creating cohesive, beautiful spaces that enhance your lifestyle and home value.
Local San Diego Experience
We’ve got experience: from our personal home-building journey to the projects we’ve led around San Diego. Construction isn’t our only passion, though. We’re involved members of the community through nonprofits like the Boys and Girls Club.
"From start to finish, Rice Design handled the project with a level of professionalism and attention to detail that is hard to come by. Having seen the entire process firsthand, I can confidently say that Rice Interiors excels at delivering on both design and construction. Their team was always on schedule and on budget, ensuring that the final product was as beautiful as it was functional."
