Courtney Jacob Harmon graduated from Appalachian State University in 2011 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Interior Design.  Before moving to Charleston, Courtney worked in Greenville for Carolina Furniture and Interiors helping clients with her design expertise in room layouts, treatments, light fixtures, and custom furniture.

In Charleston, Courtney furthered her knowledge in flooring and kitchen and bath design before beginning with Southeastern Galleries.  She appreciates detail, and understands that a client has his or her own unique taste, and that it should be exemplified in their home with every added feature.  From a small to large scale project, anything from designing a single room to full home specifications, she’s ready with just the right touch and she will appeal to your taste.

In her own home, she loves to blend a rustic feel with an elegant finish. With two boys, her husband, Hal, and 4 month-old son, little Hal, she’s learned to appreciate the beauty in deer antlers. As a passionate designer, she would love to be a helping hand in making your home what you always wanted.

Brittany Bowser, originally from the upstate, relocated to Charleston in 2015.  She graduated from the Art Institute of Charleston in 2010 with a Bachelor’s Degree of Fine Arts in Interior Design.  After graduating from design school, Brittany moved to Greenville to work for a design firm and retail showroom.  After a few years in the upstate she deeply missed the city of Charleston that she fell in love with in college.  She is so happy to call Charleston home, again.

Brittany loves nothing more than expressing her creativity.  Her passion for creativity can be found in her canvas painting, floral arranging as well as event design; however, residential design is what she loves best.  Brittany has experience with a range of different projects, anywhere from selecting a color story for your space all the way to building a home from the ground up.  Her goal as a designer is to create a home for her clients that is built around their personal style and is space all their own.  Each client is different, therefore each project should reflect that.

Lover of the fast-pace ever changing world of design,  Brittany truly enjoys all aspects of interior design.  Her passion stems from her love of beautiful architecture and stunning interiors.  And what better place to pratice that passion than Charleston, SC.  She prides herself on her attention to detail and the functionality of a space.  Working closely with clients and creative problem solving makes every day a new and exciting adventure.

Randolph Cooper, a Charleston native, had a very early interest in design. Being of the fourth generation of the Southeastern Galleries family, he was familiarized with the rewarding experience of helping the families of the Southeast complete their homes. He was inspired most of all by the influence of his great-grandparents, and he endeavors to continue their legacy. He hopes to model himself after his grandparents, in particular their humility, as well as their commitment to the Catholic Church, family and community.

Randolph studied at the college of Charleston, as well as abroad. In Randolph’s world travels he has been inspired by aesthetics of European and Micronesian design. While being exposed to foreign cultures, he only continued to grow in his appreciation for the uniqueness of Charleston. When not at work he can be found on the water, sailing or cruising the harbor with cocktails. Randolph pours himself into local events, enjoying Spoleto, Charleston Wildlife and Food and Wine.

Randolph’s favorite aspect of working at Southeastern Galleries is working hands on with clients, who quickly transition from acquaintances to friends. Randolph approaches each new project with wonderful enthusiasm and vigor. He has worked all over the coast, from Kiawah, to downtown, to Edisto. He feels no job is too big or too small, whether it is searching for the perfect end table to complete the nearly finished room or working from the clients floor plans from the ground up.

Rick joined Southeastern Galleries in the early 1980′s after receiving his BS in Business from The Citadel, his MBA from the University of South Carolina and several years with Milliken Textile Mills. His textile training inspired him to become an expert in rugs, carpets and fabrics.

Rick and his wife of 30 years share their world with 3 sons and a beautiful daughter-in-law. When Rick is not working, he can be found on the golf course with his best friend, mentor and spiritual counselor, Bishop T or playing with his granddog, George.
