Detailed Answer
The first step is always a conversation. We start with a consultation where we talk about your vision, lifestyle, and what's not working in your current space. We'll discuss your budget, timeline, and any specific challenges you're facing.
During this initial meeting, we'll ask about how you use your space, what styles speak to you, and what your must-haves are versus nice-to-haves. If it's a vacation home, we'll talk about rental goals or personal use plans. We want to understand not just what you want your space to look like, but how you want it to feel and function.
We'll walk through your space together so we can see the flow, natural light, and any structural considerations. We'll take measurements and photos, and point out opportunities you might not have noticed. Sometimes the best solutions aren't obvious until you have a fresh perspective.
After our consultation, we'll create a custom proposal outlining the scope, timeline, and investment for your project. This gives you everything in writing so you can make an informed decision. No surprises, ever. You'll know exactly what to expect before we move forward, and there's no pressure to decide on the spot.
Other Common Questions
During our consultation, we'll walk through your space and really listen to how you live in it. We'll talk about what's working, what isn't, and what your dream outcome looks like. We'll take measurements and photos, and ask lots of questions about your lifestyle and preferences.
We love when clients come prepared because it helps us understand your vision from day one. Gather any inspiration photos, Pinterest boards, or magazine clippings that speak to you. If you have paint colors, fabric samples, or furniture pieces you want to keep, bring those too.
Think about how you actually live in your space. Do you entertain often? Work from home? Have kids or pets? We need to know your real lifestyle, not just what looks pretty online.
Most projects take 3-6 months from start to finish, but this depends on the scope and whether construction is involved. Simple rooms can be completed in 6-8 weeks, while whole house projects or vacation home designs typically take longer due to shipping and coordination.
- Single room: 6-8 weeks
- Multiple rooms: 3-4 months
- Whole house or construction projects: 4-6 months
You might need professional design help if you feel overwhelmed when decorating, can't decide on colors or furniture, or your rooms don't feel pulled together. Many homeowners also call us when they're stuck with awkward layouts or want to maximize their space but don't know how.
- Your home feels scattered or lacks personality
- You've tried decorating but nothing looks right
- You're planning a renovation and want it done correctly
Construction projects can have unexpected challenges, and we handle them quickly and transparently. As soon as we're aware of any delay or issue, we contact you immediately to explain what's happening and what we're doing to fix it.
We work directly with contractors to solve problems fast, whether it's a material delay, weather issue, or something unexpected that comes up during construction.
