We’ll work together deeply in our first meetings and during the design review, but once we have an agreed-upon vision, we’re able to run with it! As a full-service interior design firm, we handle everything that goes on behind the scenes with your architects, contractors, and vendors. And you’re always welcome to say “Surprise me!” — as long as you mean it!

Yes. Because we offer high-end design, we only accept clients with the following minimum budgets:

Custom home design: 3M

Full home remodels: 600k

Kitchen remodels: 175k

Primary bathroom remodels: 100k

Other rooms: 25k

Interior Furnishings: 90K or 3 room minimum

We work on a room-by-room basis, and fees are determined by the square footage of the room and the scope of work for the design. There are three separate charges for our service:

Design Service Fee

Ordering & Procurement of Furnishings Fee

Furnishing Receipt & Delivery Fee (to be paid directly to the delivery company.)

We have a minimum project requirement of $90,000 for interior furnishings (starting at 30k per room), and a minimum design service fee of $20,000 per project.

Pricing can vary by level of detail and product selection, but in general, you can expect to pay between $75-175 per square foot for beautiful, high-quality finished rooms.

We carry furniture at a variety of price points and would never propose an item that was not in line with your budget. Collaboration is the key to making sure your design is optimized and stunning!

We don’t make purchases from big box retail stores. We can’t wait to show you the other 90% of furniture we have special access to that is trade-only, customizable…and absolutely STUNNING! This is where we “earn our keep” and can create the most amazing final look you wouldn’t have access to without a professional designer.

We love to find ways to integrate items that have special meaning or value to you. At the same time, some items will limit your design options. We will be forthright and honest in our opinion to you, giving you design options and discussing any limitations. We’ll always try to do our best to find ways to work with the items you have and create design strategies for a cohesive result.

Most projects take about 4-9 months to complete from first meeting to final delivery and styling. Occasionally, manufacturing delays combined with high demand for interior furniture can lead to long lead times and a lack of inventory. We highly encourage you to calculate potential delays in your project timeline.

We’ll do everything in our power to get your project completed in the fastest timeframe. What we won’t compromise on is quality. Pressure, birthdays, holidays, parties, and guests will unfortunately not speed up the process. We ask that you respect the timeline and avoid rushing the team as it won’t speed up the schedule. In the design world, patience is key.

First, we will assess where you are in the construction process, examine architectural plans, review permits, and understand projected timelines. In the beginning stages of projects, the typical construction design services we provide include:

Redlining architectural floor plans for use of space, functionality, and optimizing design sight lines

Evaluate contractor bids to the proposed specifications and provide feedback on pricing.

Design, selection, administration, purchasing, receiving, and quality control of materials such as paint, tile, flooring, stone facades, slab countertops, cabinetry, appliances, plumbing, lighting, and any other details specific to your project.

Since every project is as unique as every client, the services needed and the hours required to complete them will vary widely. Therefore we bid each project individually. Our bid is comprised of a flat rate for design services and hourly packages for procurement and construction administration.

Yes! We have fostered great relationships with builders and architects in the Bay Area. It’s important to note that many builders and architects are booked out 6 months to 1 year in advance. We will do our best to recommend trusted professionals that are available sooner or are worth the wait.

The short answer is: yes. The success of construction projects is the result of putting together a good team of people. We are team players! But, the bottom line is, it is easier for us to work with our own chosen vendors to stay on schedule and on budget, and the end result of our work is stronger. We only source through the vendors we have pre-vetted, including providers of tile, lighting, cabinetry, and plumbing fixture purchases.
