Full-service interior design consists of three major phases:

• Narrowing parameters and targeting solutions
• Detailed design
• Purchasing and execution

Working with me allows you to relax and be confident that I am managing the project from inspiration photos to installation!

After your complimentary discovery call, we will meet in your home or virtually for our initial consultation to discuss your project and identify solutions. 

What are the functional needs of the space? How would you like to use it, and what is keeping you from doing so?

What are you and your spouse’s design preferences? Inspiration photos are helpful here!

How much do you want to invest in this project?

After the consultation, we can move to the design phase.  Here I will:

· Assess the project space, take measurements and photos, and document any items that will be staying.
· Design the ideal floor plan and optimal size and style of furniture to ensure the best possible layout for the project.
· Curate selections to create the perfect look.
· Contact and coordinate contractors as needed to visit your home in order to provide accurate estimates for their work.

· Placing orders and assessing delivery times. Most items ship by truck to local receiver for inspection.
· Track arrival dates and arrange professional delivery and installation in your home.
· Perfectly place your beautiful new pieces, adding accessories to really make things pop.

As every project is different, I will be able to give you a fee estimate once we determine the scope of your project. I usually provide this in my follow up email to you after our initial consultation.

With Full Service Design, all purchasing and execution goes through me.

Your purchase of interior design items (i.e. furniture, fabrics, art, accessories and other design materials) through me will serve as payment for my services during the Purchasing and Execution Phase. The curated selections on your design will have an “all the way to your living room price”–no nickel and diming.  The only thing not in that number is tax.  Selections will include freight, shipping, and local delivery.

I require 100% deposit on all orders for many reasons.

Once a custom order is placed, it is non-refundable.

I’ve had clients go through tough times that pulled them away from the project. While it is completely understandable that someone dealing with a personal crisis can’t focus on the design project, the custom orders already set into motion cannot be paused or cancelled, which means production will conclude and balances will be due. Basically, I’m a design firm, not a bank.

Those examples aside, there are many benefits to paying 100% up front:
· It cuts paperwork in half (instead of billing for a deposit and final invoice).
· Projects move more quickly this way, as it makes the entire order process more efficient and allows us to complete your project quicker.

Here’s an example to illustrate my point: My vendors won’t ship your items until they are paid in full, so in the case of a 50% deposit, I would then pay my vendors 50%. They would send me an invoice when the item is ready to ship. I then send you a balance-due invoice. I process your payment, then pay my vendor. Some vendors still send paper invoices and only take checks, so this can add a week or two to the lead time.
