• How do you determine the budget for a project?

  
  

   

Transparency is our priority. During our initial consultation, we discuss your goals and help you establish a realistic investment range. We factor in:
Designer fees (hourly or flat rate).
Procurement costs (furniture, fixtures, and decor).
Contractor and labor costs. We work with you to prioritize “splurge” items versus “save” items to ensure the final result looks high-end regardless of the total spend.

• How long does the typical design process take?

  
  

   

Timelines vary significantly based on the scope of work. A single-room “refresh” might take 4 to 8 weeks, while a full-home renovation can take 6 months to a year. Major factors include lead times for custom furniture, shipping schedules, and the availability of licensed contractors. We provide a projected timeline at the start of every project.

• What if I’m not sure what my “style” is?

That is completely normal! Most clients know what they don’t like more than what they do. We use a variety of tools—such as inspiration boards, questionnaires, and portfolio reviews—to help identify your preferences. Our goal is to translate your lifestyle and personality into a cohesive visual language that feels like “you.”

• What is the difference between an Interior Designer and an Interior Decorator?

While the terms are often used interchangeably, there is a key difference. Interior Designers typically handle the structural and functional aspects of a space, such as floor plans, lighting placement, and coordination with contractors. Interior Decorators focus primarily on the aesthetics—furniture selection, color palettes, textiles, and wall treatments. We provide full-service design, meaning we can assist with both structural planning and final styling.
