FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I charge for consultations and have an hourly design free structure.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Every project is slightly different depending on the scope but all relationships begin with a paid consultation during which we discuss the project, goals, budget and vision. From there, we share a proposal which includes an investment guide and pricing. For full service projects, once the contract is signed we move into the design development phase which starts with a client questionnaire so I can get a better sense of the client's style. After that's complete, we gather dimensions and site photos. We develop floor plans and a general design direction and then schedule a more intensive design presentation which reviews the material, lighting and furniture selections. Once approved, we develop construction drawing sets and schedules for the general contractor to refer to. We also begin procurement and purchasing of the materials. From there, we schedule regular site visits to ensure our vision is coming to life according to schedule, budget and design. We oversee window covering measures and installations and wallpaper installations, among other installs For furnishings, we schedule an install once the space is ready. Et voila!
