Design from afar
This is a topic that we get questions on a lot so it is about time we took some time to dive right into it! So first let’s start with who we are and what services we offer.
We are a full-service interior design firm based out of New England with a retail location and construction company.While we specialize in residential design, we also partner with architects and contractors to bring boutique hotels and commercial properties to life. We have two main packages that we offer; one is our consultation based service “Designer for a Day”. Then we have our traditional interior design services which include additional services like 3d space planning, design boards and installation/styling.
While we’re based out of New England, we can take on projects across the country (and beyond! we loveeee to travel!). So here's how it works for our standard interior design package.
Our team will fly out for the initial consultation (depending on the project’s scope and scale we may fly out again before the final installation to make sure everything is running smoothly), then we come back to our studio and begin the concepting phase, give our initial presentation, then concept presentation 2 (if necessary) and then make our way into the design and procurement phase, present again, and finally install. The client gets as much of the custom treatment as they’d like, but it also puts them in charge of working with their on-site contractor during the renovation process. Distance design projects inherently require a clean process and detailed execution that our team is exceptional at! We treat these projects with the same level of care and detail (sometimes even more because distance requires constant communication) that we do our local projects.
You’ve probably got questions, but we’ll guess at a few of them with a couple of FAQs. That said, if you have a question that’s not on the list, send us a note and one of our team members will get back to you ASAP. :)
FAQ-
How long will my project take?
Good design takes time! And every project is different but the complete design process can take anywhere from 4-7 months, while full-scale renovations can take a year+.
What if I have no idea how much my project will cost?
We will work closely with you to develop the right budget for your project. There are always ways to save and splurge; our team will help you navigate which areas we can do that for based on your design.
How do you set your design fees?
Each project is tailored to you and your home. After the consultation, our team will prepare a project scope and proposal. In this proposal, we review the scope of the work and deliver an estimate of our design fees based on projected hours. We’re committed to transparency with our clients and will provide regular updates so you always know where you stand.
