REsidential design
If you've never worked with an interior designer before, it can feel a little daunting. What is expected? How much will it cost? Do I have to wait forever for my products? These are all GREAT questions that I hope to answer for you below.
I always tell my clients that they can be as hands on or hands off as they would like to be! Most clients will send me inspiration, talk to me about their likes/dislikes or even share a collaborative Pinterest board or two - whatever works best for you to communicate your wishes with me! Your job is to enjoy the process whichever way you'd like it to happen. My job is to ensure that I create a space that meets (and exceeds) your expectations.
But if you're anything like me, you still have reservations and lots of questions. Like, how long will the process take and what if I don't like what you send me?
real talk.
It's not the most fun conversation, but sometimes demand for designs can get a little out of control during certain seasons! I will usually tell my clients their appropriate wait time at their consultation. Typically, it's a 2-3 week turnaround for design (mood) boards! What happens if you don't like a product or two on the board? Not a problem! We'll just keep trying until we find the right one for you.
However, there is a level of trust that I do ask of my clients. Even if you aren't 100% on a product - don't discount it completely! There's a reason I've sent it over to you for approval!
We'll start out doing an initial consultation! I'll come to your home and take pictures and measurements and chat with you about what your expectations are for the project.
Next, I'll take all of that information back with me and design your custom mood boards. I will send those over for your approval before we commence with ordering.
Lastly, we'll order the products and when they arrive we will do your installation. Design Days are my absolute favorite where the client gets to see the vision come to life!

Awesome question! I would NEVER encourage you to enter into a project or service without first knowing the cost. See the list below:
Being in a home that fosters comfort instead of chaos and security instead of overwhelm is worth every penny in my personal opinion. Great design can help you take back a sense of pride in your home and help you foster a space that is warm and inviting to your friends and family.
It's not that far out of reach. It can easily happen for you and your home. Just give me a call today!
