Nervous About Your Interior Design Consultation? Don't Be! Here’s How to Prepare...

An interior design consultation is essential for uncovering the full scope of a project, identifying key players, and mapping out a strategic order of operations—so there are fewer surprises and better results down the line. It’s also the perfect opportunity to ensure that both client and designer are aligned in style, communication, and expectations before moving forward.

Tip #1: Come With a Vision for How You'll Use Your Home

Before diving into finishes and furnishings, take a moment to think about how you truly want to live in your home—do you crave calm and simplicity, love to entertain, or need spaces that grow with your family? Understanding your lifestyle goals and overall vision helps us design a home that doesn’t just look beautiful, but functions beautifully too. When you bring that clarity to our consultation, we can guide you toward design decisions that support the life you want to lead.

Tip #2: Have the Important Details Ready Ahead of Time

Even if you're still in the early idea phase, coming to the consultation with a rough investment range, a general sense of scope, and any must-keep pieces—like heirlooms or sentimental items—helps us hit the ground running. These details give us a clearer picture of what matters most to you and allow us to create a plan that’s realistic, personalized, and thoughtfully aligned with your goals.

Tip #3: Get Ready to Be Open-Minded, Available & Present

Come to your consultation with an open mind—you might just leave with ideas you never imagined. That’s the joy of working with a professional: fresh perspectives, creative solutions, and expert guidance you can trust. To make the most of our time together, it’s best if all decision-makers are present, aligned on goals, and fully engaged (yes, that means phones away!).

Ready to bring your vision to life? Booking a consultation is like a fun first date—full of excitement, valuable insights, and a chance to see if we’re the perfect fit to move forward with clarity and confidence.

If you’re unsure whether your home needs a full renovation or just a fresh new look, we’d love to help you find the right path. Schedule a consultation with us, and together we’ll create a plan that fits your space, your style, and your goals.
