As seen in
how we work
means carney process
Getting Started
Contact us to schedule an initial consultation at no cost to you. Please include general information regarding scope of project and address. We will get back in touch with you to schedule a time that is convenient for you.
After meeting with you to discuss the project in detail, we will provide a written, itemized estimate via email. The estimate will include our flat design fee per room so you can pick and choose where to get started. Once you decide to move forward, we will collect 50% of the design fee to initiate the project.
We believe that a flat fee approach (versus an hourly rate) takes the ambiguity out of the process and provides a clear understanding of what design fees will be involved.
Planning
After receiving the deposit, we will schedule an on-site visit to measure project space(s). Once we have the appropriate measurements, we will scale the project space(s) and provide up to three furniture layout options.
We will present the furniture layout options to you and once approved, we will begin selecting furniture items to fit the space and your style preferences.
Design meetings will be held at our offices to review complete design plan and view samples (fabrics, flooring, tile, etc.).
Production
We will coordinate with contractors and procure approved items such as furniture, accessories, fabrics, hardware, etc.
We will coordinate fabrication of custom items such as draperies and rugs. All items approved for purchase for the project will be paid in full at time of order. All special order items are final sale.
We will coordinate receiving and inspection of all items with our receiver.
Once all items have been received we will schedule an installation day to bring in all approved items for design plan to the project site along with "on-approval" items such as art and accessories to complete the look.
