DIALOGUE
Before we begin
I believe that a successful project starts with clear financial expectations.
To ensure complete alignment before we begin, we practice full transparency regarding my design fees:
Design & Consultation: $250 per hour. This covers my creative concepts, sourcing, detailed space planning, technical drawings, and project oversight.
Procurement & Logistics: For all merchandise, furnishings and materials, I use a traditional "cost-plus" procurement model with a 25% management fee.
The Value: I pass my trade discounts directly to you. This means that while I manage the heavy lifting of specifications, ordering, freight tracking, inspection and installation, the final price you pay typically mirrors—or undercuts—standard retail costs. My trade discounts frequently offset this 25% fee. Ultimately, you receive custom, curated pieces at or below standard retail market pricing.
People ask me if there is a minimum budget. The answer is no, but my work is suited for full-room transformations starting at a $20,000 budget.
