Rhonda Ciona - Office and Purchasing Manager
After a successful career in the diamond industry, Rhonda is once again surrounded by beautiful objects and spaces at Atmosphere Interior Design. Having grown up in the world of home building & design – her parents sharing a passion for building homes and her brother’s influence on the design of these creations (her brother being Trevor). Rhonda shares her love of design at Atmosphere as the Office and Purchasing Manager – managing the day-to-day operations of the business since 2018. Her exceptional organizational skills and attention to detail allow for all projects to run smoothly and efficiently. Managing projects and working alongside the team of trades that contribute to our projects is another one of her specialties – team building and understanding what makes for a successful project relies heavily on her shoulders.
After spending many years in Yellowknife, NT, Rhonda’s desire to raise her family in the community where she grew up is what drew her back to Saskatchewan. Spending over 10 years away from her hometown, Rhonda has a new-found appreciation for Saskatoon and the many hidden gems it has to offer, particularly its endless options of amazing restaurants. Away from the office, you can find her checking out the latest in Saskatoon’s events and dining scene with her family. She is a sucker for a great book, a glass (or two) of Pinot Grigio on ice, and planning the next great vacation and adventure.

Victoria Stephens - Junior Designer
As Atmosphere’s Intermediate Designer, Victoria plays an integral role in ensuring client satisfaction by providing updates and specifications, assisting Trevor and Curtis with specifics, and creating inspiring options to help narrow the design direction and ensure clients receive the space of their dreams.
With a life-long interest in design that sprung from her 13 different home moves during childhood, Victoria pursued her studies of interior design at the British Columbia Institute of Technology in Burnaby, BC. Relocating to Saskatoon with her husband, she leaped at the opportunity to learn from Trevor and Curtis at Atmosphere Interior Design and hasn’t looked back since.
Drawing on cues from surrounding architecture and landscape, Victoria draws design inspiration from her surroundings to ensure the interior both blends with and stands out from its environment. She is also an avid lover of Australian design, particularly the importance it places on the use of materiality in its different forms.
When she’s not working to bring clients’ visions to life, Victoria enjoys exploring her neighbourhood of Riversdale and taking walks around the river and Victoria Park. Always looking to grow, she’s passionate about trying new things, with her latest obsessions being pottery class, cross-country skiing, and making pasta from scratch.
Victoria is available to take on your project independently, please connect with her at victoria@atmosphereid.ca
