So… you want to hire an interior designer? Let’s talk about what that actually means.
One of the questions I hear most often is, “How do you work?” But the real question is… “What exactly am I paying for?”
And honestly, it’s SO much more than choosing pretty things, as most people think.
It’s custom cabinetry and millwork.
Designing Lighting. Carpets. Upholstery. Window treatments. Furniture.
It’s measuring… and more measuring. 😉
Reading plans. Coordinating with plumbers, electricians, builders and specialized trades.
Checking details, managing orders, navigating lead times and solving problems before they become expensive ones.
It’s making sure every element harmonizes with the next—from the architecture and finishes to the furniture, lighting and smallest details.
And you don’t necessarily need a full renovation to work with me.
Maybe you need help with one room.
A kitchen.
Lighting.
Furnishings.
Or simply figuring out where to begin and create flow from a Kithen remodel.
But when you choose full-service design, you’re not just hiring someone with good taste.
You’re hiring experience. Expertise. Relationships. Resources. Problem-solving. And someone who knows what needs to happen before it needs to happen.
Because there’s a BIG difference between shopping for a room and designing one.
That’s the value of an interior designer. ✨
