Our Studio
Welcome to
Retiro Design Co.
Hi, I’m Ritu Nagpal, an interior designer based in San Francisco, where I live with my husband and our three children. As a native Californian, I draw inspiration from our beautiful landscapes, architectural & cultural diversity and robust color palettes to create unique and inviting spaces for each of my clients.
With an MBA from the Anderson School at UCLA and years of experience as an investment professional, I pair strong business insight with my passion for design.
In 2016, I co-founded Blue Lamp Interiors, focused on demystifying the design process and fostering genuine collaboration with my clients. With the launch of Retiro Design Co, I continue that commitment to crafting personalized, stylish spaces that reflect each client’s unique lifestyle. Prioritizing clarity and creativity, I aim to make every step of the design journey enjoyable.

Working with Ritu is such a joy!
Ritu is a talented designer with impeccable taste who listens to her client's needs and preferences, offers unique and practical advice, and manages timelines effectively. She helped us be bold with color but also helped us balance different design elements to create a sophisticated look. We also really appreciated her pragmatic approach. As she designed our layout and selected materials, she incorporated elements that complement how our family lives and stayed within our budget. She worked with our tough schedule, kept us on track, and ensured that our materials were ordered on time. She simplified the process for us, decreased the stress, and made our remodeling experience fun. In addition, she collaborates well with contractors and architects. Highly recommend hiring Ritu!
