FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
We work on an hourly basis. Our rate is $150 per hour. Based on the scope of work we give you an estimate of how many hours the project would take. On average one room takes around 20 hours.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I. Before we schedule the "Get Acquainted Call", we ask our prospective clients to fill out the "Client lifestyle questionnaire" and to share their inspiration with us. II. The second step will be setting up 20 minutes "Get Acquainted Call". You will tell me more about yourself and your project needs and will have an opportunity to ask any questions that you may have. III. The third step is 1.5-hour initial consultation. It costs $300 and during this consultation, we will kick start the whole design process, go through details of what you would like to be accomplished. What is great - If you sign on with us, we credit the consultation fee to the initial design fee - this means this will be a complimentary consultation. After the initial consultation, you will get a contract with the scope of work, estimated hours (for each room/task) and a timeline to complete the project. VI. When the contract is signed, we meet again, my team and I take measurements, pictures and come back in 2-3 weeks with a design presentation that will include such things as a design concept, furniture layouts, 3d renderings, elevations, some material samples. You provide feedback, and if needed we make changes to designs and review again, typically meeting every week or two. V. Optional: Once selections are made, you sign the design proposal and we start to place orders, set up deliveries and resolve deficiencies that come up during the process.
