Do you provide destination design services?
Hiring a designer is a smart investment - they bring expertise, creative vision and have a knack for saving you time and money. They know how to balance beauty and practicality, creating spaces that are both functional and stylish without breaking your budget. Designers have a keen sense of layout, color and flow, so they can see the bigger picture and come up with clever solutions you might not have considered. Plus, they manage the entire process from start to finish and have access to industry resources that help avoid costly mistakes. In short, they take the hassle out of design while making sure the space truly reflects your style and that of your home.
Why should I hire a designer?
For most projects, we prefer to work at an hourly rate. However, for virtual design projects or if the client prefers, we are willing to outline a flat fee for the entire scope of the project.
Do you charge by the project or hourly?
Certainly! If your destination is too far to travel, or you'd rather have someone put together a design plan for you to shop on your own, we're happy to help however works best for you.
Do you provide virtual design services?
No matter the size of your project, every design receives our full attention and commitment. We know that even the smallest spaces can have a profound impact on your day-to-day life, which is why we dedicate ourselves to delivering exceptional results. Smaller projects are generally done at an hourly rate, however, we'll determine the best options for you during our initial consultation.
Do you take on small projects? Do you have project minimums?
The more details you provide, the better your designer can bring your vision to life. Coming to your initial consultation prepared with ideas, inspiration images and a clear list of your priorities helps set the stage for success. During the first meeting, we'll discuss your ideas and project scope, including must have items, budget and timeline. Sharing your favorite designs and spaces also gives us more insight into your personal style, ensuring the end result is perfectly tailored to you.
