WHAT TO EXPECT

WHEN WORKING WITH AN INTERIOR DESIGNER

  1. Interior designers interpret your style. We help you to select finishes, fixtures, and furniture that you'll actually love (not regret because you didn't know how it would work with the other elements in your home).

  2. We streamline the decision-making process. When there are MILLIONS of options out there, clients without designers can spend countless hours staring at a screen searching for the perfect item. However, we know where to source those “just for you” items that are within your budget, and in alignment with your style. Not only will you save tons of time, but we’ll also provide you a curated collection of items that will be perfect for you.

  3. You have access to furniture and customizations not available to the general public. We also have the flexibility to offer special pricing, and often that alone covers our design fee investment when our clients furnish entire rooms.

  4. Two words. Cabinetry. Hardware. Don't even get us started. Each cabinet drawer or door should have a piece of hardware on it that works for 1) function, 2) style, and 3) size. Yes, you will have to measure each cabinet to make sure your hardware is the right size so it doesn't look off scale.

    You'll also want to consider, how you'll open each drawer and door. Will you be cooking and need easy access? Will your kids be opening the cupboard often? The list goes on. We know exactly what sizes to use and will make recommendations so you don't have to do the leg work of measuring and then finding the right collection of hardware that will fit each door or drawer front properly.

 
 

5. Size and scale is everything. With our measuring tools and floor planning software, we know how to lay things out to ensure everything fits properly and to scale. If you've ever walked into a room and had the feeling that something was just "off", it was likely the size or scale of an item.

6. It has its shares of ups and downs. If you've never renovated before, you are about to embark on an exciting process. Having someone to advocate for you throughout ensures that you never make a selection in haste only to regret it later. We’ll help give you peace of mind knowing the investment you're making in your home is maximized at every turn. We'll let you know when it makes sense to save or splurge.

7. We speak the language and have connections. We're the people who always know a guy, and can get just about anything done with a bit of creative carpentry, expert painting, or magical handiwork. We know what's realistic on job sites and when you're okay to push back a bit.

8. Fewer transactions. When you place orders through us, you have the benefit of "one-stop shopping," where we handle it all. For most clients, placing ONE order through us for all items removes the "transaction fatigue" that comes with shopping from twenty different sources and tracking all your own orders.

9. We get it! We understand the process, the waiting, the frustrations, and the anticipation for your completed space. We'll be there with you every step of the way to keep your project moving forward, and to keep you in the loop so you can relax as much as possible and enjoy the experience.
