You contact us with project details and we send a short questionnaire to learn about your needs, style, budget, and timeline. This helps us decide the right service level (e.g., full-service, eDesign, staging).  Once you’re confident you’ve found the right fit, you can proceed to schedule your in-person, on-site consultation.

Client deliverable: completed questionnaire and inspiration images (if available).

Designer deliverable: confirmation of scope, next steps, and contract/retainer request. 

Schedule a Complimentary 15-minute Discovery Call and let's talk about it!

The On-Site Consultation marks the start of your project.  This consultation typically lasts two hours and is a paid service. This phase focuses on asking questions and defining goals to fully understand your vision and desired outcome.  In this meeting, we’ll discuss functionality, style, examine how the space currently functions, how it needs to in the future, and the needs of those using it.  We will also outline the design process, and review the contract. 

Once the contract is signed and payment is received, get ready for the exciting Schematic Design phase! During this stage, our design team begins developing your preliminary design concept. We’ll conduct a detailed site survey, taking measurements and photos, and may create a shared Pinterest board to capture inspiration and style direction. 

At the end of this phase, we’ll review the conceptual design, preliminary plans, and budget estimate with you to ensure everything aligns beautifully with your vision. The deliverable is a presentation of rough concept layouts, which may be revised based on feedback. You’ll then sign off on a final concept to proceed with further development.

This phase involves:

• Developing initial space planning diagrams to address layout, functionality, key features and circulation.

• Considering general interior finishes for budget purposes.

• Refining budget, scope, and vision.

After the initial plans are approved, the Design Development phase begins with a "trade day," where we will review the preliminary ideas with contractors and tradesmen to obtain initial construction bids.

During this phase, our design team finalizes all drawings, sources materials, fixtures, and furnishings, including tiles, lighting, finishes, countertops, cabinetry, paint colors, flooring, plumbing, appliances, and furniture. Once these details are settled, they update the budget and timeline based on vendor pricing.

At the end of this phase, you’ll review a detailed design presentation, including material samples. If needed, the team will make adjustments and present updated plans. The goal of Design Development is to solidify the design direction and refine all details.

This phase involves:

• Developing a detailed floor plan and specific finish and fixture recommendations.

• Selecting appliances and equipment.

• The client signs off on these details before moving to the final design phase.

During the Construction Documentation phase, most decisions and options have been finalized. The focus now is on addressing any remaining details and questions. This phase involves creating detailed notes, floor plans, and images to provide comprehensive information necessary for constructing the project.  

Overall, this phase ensures that all documentation is complete, procurement is managed, and construction is monitored for successful design implementation.

This phase involves:

• Documentation Preparation: We will create a specifications notebook for the contractor, including final floor plans and detailed sheets for finishes, fixtures, and furnishings. All drawings are shared with you, the contractor, and necessary trades, and permits are obtained, if applicable.

• Accessories and Procurement: The designer begins gathering accessories and final touches. A list is compiled, a retainer is collected, and purchasing and procurement of merchandise are managed. Deliveries are coordinated, and items are inspected for quality.

• Project Management: The designer conducts a walk-through with the contractor to start construction, makes site visits to ensure the design is being implemented correctly, addresses any issues, and adjusts plans as needed. They also verify the placement of fixtures and flooring and coordinate with additional vendors.

In the Construction Administration and Installation phase, this is where the project truly comes to life, with the implementation of design elements and active construction.

• Contractor Engagement: Bids are obtained and contractors are hired. Permits are secured if required.

• Ordering and Delivery: Light fixtures, plumbing fixtures, furniture, and other items are ordered, shipped, received, and installed.

• On-Site Work: The general contractor and subcontractors carry out the construction work.

• Designer Involvement: The designer conducts on-site walk-throughs and oversees the installation of key elements like lighting, furniture, and art.

This is the moment you’ve been waiting for—the grand unveiling of your newly designed space! After weeks (or months) of planning, sourcing, and coordinating every detail, we bring your vision to life through a seamless installation and final styling session.

Our team carefully places each furniture piece, adjusts lighting, hangs art, fluffs pillows, and adds the finishing touches that make the space feel complete. When you walk through the door for the first time, we want you to feel wow—a space that feels unmistakably yours, elevated and effortless.

During The Reveal, we’ll take a guided walkthrough together to ensure everything meets your expectations and functions beautifully. This is where design meets emotion—where a house becomes a home and your personality shines through every detail.
