DESIGN CONSULTATION

Hi, You're here...that’s great. I’m excited about the possibility of collaborating with you on your design project. I'd be delighted to help solve your design dilemmas and create a warm, inviting and modern interior for your home.

You've arrived at the right designer…With my 20 years of interior decorating and interior designing experience, I have the expertise to create functional and elegant spaces for you.
I can't wait to get started to help you with your project. Are you ready?

All projects start with a 2-hr consultation at your home. It's the first step in potentially working together on your project.

The goal of this consultation is to bring some shape to your project by giving you practical design advice and recommendations. It'll provide you with a lot of concrete and useful information to move your project to the next step of the design discovery and planning process.

It is not intended to give you a complete design, nor to make any decisions on your project.
Decisions aren't made at this initial stage.

It's a brainstorming session to explore the possibilities of which direction your design could take. Arriving at a final approved design takes time - allow the necessary time for yourself to mull over options, look at ideas you might not otherwise consider and allow the design to evolve. I have found that this method produces optimal results for my clients.

Before we meet, you'll receive a questionnaire to help you pinpoint what your design dilemmas are and to consider other aspects of your project. The more information you can provide, the better I can understand how to solve your design dilemmas.

The consultation is about understanding what your functional requirements are for each room. All design &/or decorating project start with this - understanding how each room in your room needs to work for you. it's only after when we start working together in Phase 2 that we start discussing your aesthetic preferences.

Consultation Deliverables:

  • Professional design &/or decorating recommendations

  • Answers & Recommendations about your top two design dilemmas

  • Feedback to your ideas as to what's viable, or impractical

  • Info about realistic project costs

  • Info about realistic project timelines

  • If applicable, one hand-sketched floor layout space plan for one room only. This is solely meant as a visual reference to our discussion about other viable layouts. No other drawings are provided at this point.

  • A written summary of my recommendations on the next business day

NOTE:
With the consultation, there are NO computer drawings, 3D drawings, site measurements,
to-scale plans, researched product options, product samples, colour palette recommendations, etc..

If you would like to have any of these as part of the consultation, we recommend choosing our six-hour Designer for a Day package, to better suit your needs.

After our Consult - you could hire us for Full-Service Design, or you might decide to complete the project on your own, or hire us for somewhere in between. We can discuss this at our consult.
