2. Detailed Consultation

During our 1-hour consultation, we’ll dive deeper into your project’s details, laying the groundwork for your custom design:

  • Space Planning: We’ll establish an initial layout to determine the number of furniture pieces and design elements needed, giving us a clear direction. Detailed plans will come later, but this sets the foundation for your transformation.

  • Setting Expectations & Investment: We’ll review pricing for pieces like sofas and chairs, making sure you’re comfortable with each. If you’re unsure about costs, I’ll guide you through realistic pricing options to find the best fit for you.

  • Investment & Design Fee Presentation: After we’ve gone through the pricing for each individual piece in your home, I’ll provide a summary of the total investment, including my design fee. Once we review the total together, we’ll secure your project with a 50% deposit of the design fee and schedule a follow-up Style & Inspiration Meeting to refine your ideas, discuss your preferences, take measurements, capture photographs, and start developing your custom design concept.

3. Style & Inspiration Meeting

This is where creativity sparks! We’ll explore your ideas, discuss what you love and don’t like, and gather measurements and photos to set the stage for the next step: the Concept Meeting, where we’ll develop a comprehensive design plan. At the same time, we’ll confirm all project details, timelines, and expectations in your Design Agreement, ensuring everything is clear and aligned with your goals, so there are no surprises moving forward.

After You’re a Client: The Design Process

1. Concept Development

Every project starts with a spark of inspiration. During this phase, I dive into your style and preferences to find the Hero Pattern—the element that ties the design together. Whether it’s a bold textile, captivating wallpaper, or striking color, this becomes the design’s “glue.” I’ll present a few exciting options, and from there, the design begins to take shape.

2. Refined & Detailed Concept

Once the Hero Pattern is established, I curate complementary fabrics, colors, textures, and furnishings. I’ll create detailed concept boards, floor plans, and layouts to show you the full vision for your space. This is also where I’ll introduce exclusive custom furnishings unavailable to the public that I’ve hand-selected for your project, ensuring that your home features truly bespoke pieces not found elsewhere. This phase is collaborative: we’ll refine the design together, ensuring everything feels right before proceeding with sourcing.

3. Sourcing & Procurement

From sourcing rare, high-quality pieces to coordinating with trusted vendors, we handle everything. Rest easy knowing that every step, from ordering to delivery, is expertly managed for you, creating a seamless and efficient experience.

4. Installation

Our skilled team will oversee every detail of the installation process, ensuring that every piece is placed perfectly. You won’t have to lift a finger as we handle everything from delivery to the final placement, allowing you to enjoy the transformation stress-free.

5. Final Review & Photography

During the final walkthrough, we’ll ensure every detail exceeds your expectations. To capture the beauty of your newly designed space, professional photographs will be taken, providing a lasting keepsake of your home’s stunning transformation.
