Luxury Full Service Interior Design
Step One
Our process begins with a free 20-30 minute discovery call for us to get acquainted with you and your project. Then an intake questionnaire will be sent to get some more specifics about you and what you are looking to accomplish. This will include questions on lifestyle, likes and dislikes, timing, budget, and project goals. Next, we will schedule a ninety-minute interactive consultation on site. This is more than a meet and greet. We will do a walkthrough of the space and provide you with professional design advice that includes specific recommendations for your project. We will take rough measurements, photos, and notes for our project proposal that we will create. The $475.00 fee will be collected before the consultation meeting.
Step Two
I will create a written detailed project proposal with inspirational images and clear cut descriptions that will state our design goals, estimated fee, and the timeline for the work to be completed. After you approve of the Project Proposal a Letter of Agreement will be provided. When all parties have reviewed and agreed to the Project Proposal and Letter of Agreement we’ll sign and collect 100% of the design fee so we can begin creating your custom design plan for your space.
Step ThreE
Visits will be scheduled to gather estimates from the necessary trades needed to complete the project. While meeting with the trades we will also take photos and detailed measurements for our reference. These will be used to supply you with renderings for the floor plans and design concept style boards. Once we receive all trade’s estimates we can begin work on the detailed Design Proposal.
Step Four
After about 4-6 weeks of diligent work on your custom design plan, we will present a complete Design Proposal. This step includes product research and sourcing along with space planning and 2D/3D renderings of the space. I will present you with actual products, paint colors, fixtures, lighting, accessory, and artwork selections. This will give you specifics on the overall look of the space. Accessories and styling items will be included in the presentation but please note some images will be conceptual. An overall investment figure for the selections that I have presented and any estimates from tradespeople that are relevant will be shown and agreed upon. Included with the proposal is a digital space plan that will show you the layout and placement of furniture. We can discuss any revisions or modifications at this time so that all parties are happy and ready to move on to the next phase. One round of edits is included with this step.
Step Five
After approval of the Design Proposal, we will then go over the specific product selections, discuss fabric samples, paint color options, budget, and any tradespeople that will need to be hired to execute the design. We can discuss any revisions or edits that need to be made in the product selections. One round of revisions is included in this step and must be discussed at this time. The Furnishings proposal is presented and signed at this meeting. A 100% deposit on the Furnishings Proposal will be collected so we can begin purchasing. If edits are requested we will follow up with another meeting to get approval of any design/product revisions and discuss if it affects the original level of investment.
Step Six
Tradespeople will be brought in so we can have them supply you with estimates for any work that needs to be done. With our luxury full-service interior design we provide project management. We will handle scheduling, communicating, and supervising tradespeople for you. We will make regular site visits when necessary to ensure work is being done correctly and promptly. We will generate purchase orders at this time, get info on lead times for products, and figure out delivery schedules for the final install.
Step Seven
All furniture and accessories, artwork, rugs, and lighting will be ordered and received by us, inspected for damage and accuracy, and stored for the final installation. We will be following up and communicating with our vendors to make sure items are being shipped and tracked when needed. If there are any damaged goods or incorrect items that need to be returned or replaced we will take care of it all for you. Instead of being around for multiple deliveries, receiving goods piecemeal, or dealing with damaged or incorrect shipments we will receive and deliver everything for your project during the final install.
Step Eight
We will be onsite to supervise the final install of your design project. This will include putting on the finishing touches with decorative items and artwork that will be styled by me to complete your look. This happens at the end of the install and sometimes depending on the size of the project may take some additional time to complete.
Step Nine
This is the day you’ve been waiting for! The reveal of the complete install. We will walk through the space and discuss all of the items and selections that have been made to create your space. Any deficiencies or things that need attention we will be noted. I will have each item addressed as quickly as possible.
Step ten
During this meeting, we will schedule a convenient time for photography of the space to take place. I will also make sure you are 100% percent happy with your space go over any deficiencies and take the steps to correct them. I will also ask for any feedback, reviews, and referrals, and any other possible projects for the future.
