If you’re about to embark on the adventure of building your home from the ground up, this post is for you. Just like a good sailor needs a compass to arrive safely at their destination, you need the help of an Interior Designer to ensure your project's success. So, keep on reading till the end to get all the details.

#1. To Reflect Your Personal Style

When you hire a designer for your new home build, they will help you understand your design style from  colors and materials you relate to the most, and how to translate that into reality. Your new home build will reflect your favorite things, lifestyle, and personality. Just think about it: Having an expert that gets your style and transforms that into reality is priceless!



In this Bedroom Project, my clients wanted a place to relax and call their own. So, taking a few pieces as inspiration, we transformed this bedroom into a safe and comfy haven to rest, heal and recharge!

#2. Get The Best Guidance For an Ultimate Design

From figuring out the best placement for your furnishings and lighting to selecting the finishes for your rooms, having an interior designer walk you through your new home build will reduce the stress and overwhelm of making the hard decisions. Because of our architectural background, we know what works best and where to place it, and on top of that, knowing what you like, we will select the key pieces that will benefit your lifestyle.

For example, in this project, my clients contacted me for a Dining Room Makeover. Not only were their dining chairs falling apart, but they were not easy to clean, and with 3 little ones, performance fabrics are a must.

#3. Involvement in Different Areas

Having a designer as a project manager for your new home build can be beneficial because their work is not only limited to decor areas but every aspect of the construction process. For example, designers will help review your plans, lighting, switches & outlet placement to see what works best for your needs. They can also help you coordinate any changes with your contractor. Having someone who will help you make the right decisions, often communicate with your contractor, and solve problems on your behalf will give you the peace of mind you need to enjoy building your home!

For this project, the builder initially designed the house with lots of natural light, which is great. However, two windows were in the family room on the only wall suitable for a TV. It didn't make sense even to have windows there, so we covered them up and designed some beautiful built-ins so the homeowners could have a fireplace, tv, and built-in storage on that wall. 

Take a look at the before and after! We kept light and maximized the space.

#4. Reduce Stress in your Project

Isn't less stress what we want at the end of the day? I always tell my clients that their peace of mind is my priority. With many decisions to make, whether a new construction or a remodel, these projects are overwhelming. That’s why having someone to coordinate all areas of your new build and solve all the problems that arise is worth it!

A new construction is a big project that needs the right help, so don’t let the myths of working with an interior designer frighten you. Instead, ensure your project’s success and book a call with me to get started.
