I often joke that I come into a clients house and wave my magic wand and leave. While it’s not really magic, my clients always tell me they could never have done it on their own.
I am your sounding board throughout the project, however long that might be! Some clients I work with for 4 weeks to speedily set up their home, others I’ve been working with for 3+ years across various rooms, renovations or cosmetic updates and they just call on me when they need my advice.
The general services an interior decorator can help with is furniture planning, ie. working out what items should go where. That could be with the furniture you already have, buying entirely new items or both. We also help source the right pieces to fit with the overall vision for the space. If you’ve been hunting for the perfect navy blue velvet armchair for years with no luck, chances are your interior designer can make it happen for you. We can coordinate custom pieces of furniture like bedheads with specific detailing or fabric or help you purchase off the shelf items from retail stores. A good interior designer will use your budget wisely!
Interior designers can also help work out colour schemes for your wall paint, exterior walls and design schemes for your bathrooms and kitchens. We also have access to a range of tradespeople to make it all happen too so it’s a wise idea to get a designer on board for their contacts as well as their brains!
