How do I prepare for our initial conversation?

When scheduling your complimentary 30-minute consultation, we'll kick things off with a few questions to grasp your preferences. However, prior to our discussion, it can be beneficial to jot down a list of likes, dislikes, budgetary considerations, and overall project objectives. Have some snapshots or a Pinterest board handy? That's even more fantastic! They provide valuable insight into your style and vision.

What if I need assistance with multiple spaces?

Within our contract, you'll find a set fee per room alongside estimated hours. We'll tackle your project room by room, moving at a pace you’re comfortable with, all while ensuring a seamless, harmonious style flows throughout every space.

How long does the design process take?

The development and finalization of your designs usually zip by in no time. However, ordering pieces and coordinating vendor schedules can be a tad more time-intensive, depending on availability.

Typically, the entire interior design journey spans between 3 to 6 months, though this timeline varies from client to client.

We highly recommend kicking off your design process sooner rather than later. This way, we can ensure everything's in place for that eagerly awaited housewarming party (or any other deadline you've got on the horizon)!

What happens if I don’t like the designs you provide?

We're all about flexibility! Our standard practice provides two distinct design options, allowing you to visualize how each one complements your space. Additionally, we provide alternative choices for key pieces such as sofas and rugs, granting you even more versatility in crafting your ideal interior.

Can my current furniture be incorporated into the new design?

We're all about accommodating your preferences. If you wish, we'll do our best to integrate as much of your existing furniture into the design. However, some pieces might be too worn, outdated, or simply not aligned with the new style concept. But hey, we won't pressure you to part with anything! Our approach is gentle guidance, offering options like refinishing or reupholstering to breathe new life into beloved pieces.

Can you help me figure out my style?

We can help narrow down your style preferences, but what truly matters is understanding your likes and dislikes. Adore purple but can't stand yellow? Fantastic insight for us! Value privacy and prefer your windows covered? That's crucial too!

Whether it's through pictures, furniture pieces, or anecdotes about the space you’re looking for, these details speak volumes compared to simply stating a design style like "mid-century modern." Of course, if you're a fan of mid-century modern, don't hesitate to share!

Throughout the consultation and design revision phases, we'll delve deep with the right questions to extract your unique style, crafting a design that's truly tailored to you.

Do you offer color consultations?

We don't provide standalone color consultations. However, they're an integral part of every remodel or interior design project we undertake. Rest assured, we'll guide you in selecting the ideal colors and finishes that align seamlessly with your preferences and design vision.

If I have a contractor or vendor, can we work with them?

Absolutely! If you already have a preferred vendor in mind, we're more than happy to collaborate with them. Alternatively, if you're in need of recommendations, we have a reliable network of local contractors and vendors at your disposal. Whether you opt to source your own or leverage our network, we'll handle all the coordination and management, sparing you from the administrative hassle.

How involved do I need to be?

During the consultation phase, we devote ample time to deeply understanding your needs. From there, we diligently craft a cohesive design concept behind the scenes, presenting you with a finalized plan rather than piecemeal details. Your feedback during this phase is invaluable to ensure we hit the mark.

As we transition into the implementation phase, we will be in touch much less frequently as we pull together your entire look. Our focus shifts to orchestrating orders, coordinating with contractors and vendors, and bringing your vision to life. However, we make it a priority to keep you informed every step of the way.

Should you come across a new piece you'd like to include or have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out. Your input guides our communication and involvement levels—whether you prefer frequent updates or periodic check-ins, we're here to accommodate your preferences.

What is the budget of your average client?

Unfortunately, since our clients' budgets vary, the classic response applies: "It depends" (apologies!). It's generally helpful to have an idea of your comfort level regarding material costs and our interior design services fees.

If you only have a total budget in mind, that's perfectly fine too. We're committed to transparency, providing honest insights into what can and can't be achieved within your budget constraints.

Should you have specific goals in mind for our collaboration, please don't hesitate to share them. This allows us to ensure they're factored into our budget considerations.

Following our initial 30-minute consultation and home visit, we'll give you a project quote. From there, you can decide whether you'd like to proceed with our services.
