FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Our pricing is tailored to the unique scope and complexity of each project. We offer transparent, detailed proposals with no hidden fees, ensuring clients understand exactly what they're investing in. While we don’t follow a one-size-fits-all pricing model, we do provide flexible packages depending on the level of service—whether it's full architectural design, interior design, or both. For larger projects or repeat clients, we’re happy to discuss customized rates or potential discounts. Our goal is always to deliver high-end, thoughtful design solutions that align with your vision and budget.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Our process begins with a complimentary discovery call or consultation, where we learn about your project, vision, needs, and lifestyle. From there, we follow a structured and personalized approach: Initial Consultation – We discuss your goals, style preferences, timeline, and budget. Site Visit & Assessment – When applicable, we visit the space to take measurements, assess conditions, and understand the spatial flow. Design Proposal – We present a detailed proposal outlining scope of work, phases, estimated timeline, and fees. Concept Development – We develop mood boards, space plans, and initial concepts to define the design direction. Design Development – We refine the design with detailed selections of finishes, furnishings, lighting, and architectural details. Construction Documentation – We prepare technical drawings and coordinate with consultants (MEP, structural, etc.) when needed. Project Oversight – We offer construction administration and final staging to ensure the design is executed as intended. Every project is approached with care, creativity, and clear communication to ensure a seamless experience from start to finish
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I hold a degree in Architecture and have over two decades of experience in the field, with more than a decade focused specifically on high-end interior design. I’m also a member of the American Institute of Architects (AIA), which reflects my ongoing commitment to professional standards and continuing education. In 2016, I founded Designs By Casandra, an interior architecture and design firm based in South Florida. My training combines architectural precision with a refined eye for interiors, allowing me to design spaces that are not only beautiful but also functional, code-compliant, and thoughtfully tailored to each client’s lifestyle.
