Is Full Service Interior Design Right for You?

Is full service interior design right for you? I’m here to walk you through my process and take you behind the scenes of my most recent full service project. Here’s a little secret: the project isn’t quite finished!



IS FULL SERVICE INTERIOR DESIGN RIGHT FOR YOU?

An Inspiring Home Bedroom Makeover


Ask Yourself These Questions:

  • Do you long for a personalized, updated space that feels put-together and flows from one room to the next?
  • Do you feel overwhelmed about decorating your home and don’t know where to begin?
  • Are you stressed enough with work, family and other activities that hiring a designer to take care of all of the design decisions is worth it to you?
  • Are you tired of low quality furnishings and interested in investing in high quality pieces that will last you through the years?

An Inspiring Home


Full service design is a luxury service and not meant for everyone. I get that. However, if you answered yes to some of the questions above, an interior designer can be very beneficial. I love to help my clients by taking away the stress and overwhelm that comes with a design project. Not to mention, my service will save you valuable time and costly mistakes.

Living Room Before An Inspiring Home


We start with a consultation, where I get to know you and your family, your style, your needs and wants.

Even though most of this room is installed, we are still waiting on a chaise lounge to be delivered. This is part of the value of full service – I see every detail through to the end!


RESEARCH & DESIGN

The next phase is research and design. A lot of hours go into this phase because I am creating something custom for you and your needs. Once I come up with a complete design I present it to you. We might tweak it a bit, and once it’s finalized we move into procurement.

PROCUREMENT

Procurement is the process of purchasing the furnishings, placing the orders, and tracking them. A designer has access to an unlimited number of top quality furnishings from trusted suppliers and vendors.


These items are shipped to a receiver, which is a big warehouse with a loading dock where everything is inspected and packaged for delivery. Part of my job is to oversee that process and arrange for a white-glove delivery service to install everything for you. I could go into a lot more detail about this but that might bore you.

INSTALLATION

Moving on to installation! This is the fun part, where everything gets delivered at once and is set up and styled just for you! Well, usually everything is delivered on time, thank you COVID. I ask my clients to step out of the house for a part of the day while furniture is being brought in, art is being installed, and accessories are styled to perfection! Then we have a little HGTV moment where you walk into an all new beautifully styled home!

Once this project is complete, I’ll be able to share more pictures with you. We are also waiting on the dining table, another detail I keep track of for my client.


Let’s chat about your next project, and how I can help you save time, money and frustration. You can schedule a phone call here.
