Bridget Ridenour

Bridget Ridenour is a licensed architect with more than 15 years of experience leading residential and interior design projects, as well as select commercial and mixed-use work. Since founding Bridget Ridenour Architect, she has provided comprehensive architectural and interior design services, from schematic design through construction documentation and construction administration. Bridget fosters a collaborative process with her clients, regardless of budget or project size, and seeks creative, functional, and timeless solutions that elevate daily life through thoughtful design. Her background with design-build firms has strengthened her ability to engage clients and contractors early in the design process, allowing her to develop realistic designs and budgets that support successful project completion. 

Her residential experience includes high-end renovations, custom interiors, and complex home additions, informed by a broader foundation in workplace, mixed-use, and retail projects. Shaped by her Midwestern upbringing in Minnesota, her design approach is grounded in minimalism and restraint, with an emphasis on regional vernacular, natural materials, functional spaces, and a strong connection between interior and exterior.

Bridget holds a Master of Architecture from the Illinois Institute of Technology and a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Wisconsin–Madison. She is a Registered Architect in the State of New York and LEED Accredited Professional.
