I only have a few questions. Is a consultation call right for me?
Absolutely. Whether you're seeking fast-acting advice or diving into a full transformation, our community of designers is flexible when it comes to project size and scope. No question is too small, and no vision is too grand.
How can I prep for my consultation call?
Gather your design ideas and all forms of inspiration (think: sketches, photos, color swatches and images from your chosen designer’s portfolio). The more prepared you are for your consultation, the more personalized and productive your consultation call will be. You are welcome to have family members and architects present to optimize your time.
How long are the consultation calls?
You have two options — 30 minutes and 60 minutes. The half-hour call is great for quick questions and decision making, like choosing paint colors or reviewing some of your selections before pulling the trigger. The hour-long call is ideal if you are seeking thorough guidance. If you’re not sure which consult length is right for you, we’ve provided a thorough outline here.
I'm ready to revamp my entire home. Consultation call or full-service booking?
You're in control. Submit a full-service inquiry for a traditional interior design experience where you have a professional taking a hands-on approach from start to finish. Consultations are ideal if you plan to fully coordinate your project but need help with plans and selections. Read more on which solution is right for you in this article.
