FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

Do you charge a Design Consultation Fee?

Yes, we charge a Design Consultation fee for our first meeting.  We love our clients and feel that being open and honest right from the start can help us create a strong, collaborative relationship and eliminate confusion. 

What's included in my initial Design Consultation?​

An in-depth outline of your vision for the spaces. This will include all the rooms involved in the project, how you intend to use each room, and your ideas and goals for each space. To make the best use of our time, please prioritize your design questions so we can handle the most important issues first.

Isn't hiring an Interior Designer Expensive?

One of the most common myths about working with an interior designer is that it will cost too much. While it is true that some designers command high fees, many charge rates that are quite reasonable and affordable. Ultimately working with an interior designer can even save your money by helping you avoid costly mistakes, referring reliable contractors, and selecting products and materials that meet “your” budget and design requirements.

Why we recommend setting a budget?

Establishing a relatively firm budget before beginning the project keeps you from breaking your bank later on. Not all items necessary to design a space must be brand new. Often the most beautiful pieces are already in your home just waiting to be reused, refinished, or reupholstered.
