Full-Service Residential

Expert design and project management for design, decorating and renovation projects.

All services start with an introductory call. If we believe the project is a fit, we will schedule an in-home consultation to develop a plan and budget for your project.

For residential interiors, we offer full service residential interior design in Chicago and surrounding suburbs. We work with contractors, architects, and drafters to help you visualize your design plans, as well as create detailed construction drawings.

We source, purchase and manage all furniture shipments, help with lighting schemes and art selection, and style your home for a finished look.

Timelines can vary, but for most partial home renovations, you can expect a timeline of 4-6 months from initial concept to final styling.

IN-HOME CONSULTATION

$600 / 3 HOURS

After an introductory call, all services start with a 3 hour consultation.

We will come to your house and discuss a focused set of prioritized topics, suggest ideas about color selections, furniture placement, and solutions for space planning. For those seeking full service design, this is the how we develop and deliver your formal proposal.
