Absolutely. I believe great design should be accessible to everyone. By sharing your budget, I can tailor recommendations and prioritize where to focus, whether that’s finding a statement piece or making strategic updates that have a big impact. It’s all about creating a space that feels like you without overextending your resources.
It depends on the project and how quickly decisions are made. A simple design might take 4 weeks, while a more complex one could take up to 6 months. I work at your pace and make sure you feel supported and informed every step of the way.
Absolutely. I have strong relationships with trusted contractors, and part of my role is making sure the design plan is executed correctly. I act as a bridge between you and the team, so everything runs smoothly.
We begin with a conversation. I ask about your style, how you use your space, and what matters most to you. Then, I create a plan tailored to your needs, balancing beauty, function, and livability. It’s a collaborative journey from start to finish.
It’s a full-service process! I start with understanding your needs and vision. From there, I create layouts, mood boards, and 3D renderings, and we select materials and finishes together. You’ll end up with a detailed design plan that considers everything from functionality to aesthetics, tailored to your space and style.
Yes! If you’re a DIY enthusiast or have your own contractors, I’m happy to provide a comprehensive design plan for you to execute. You’ll still have the benefit of professional guidance, but the implementation is all yours.
