Hello everyone, back by a popular demand! This is one of our most viewed blogs so I felt like it’s a good time to revisit a topic .
Here are just the few of most frequently asked
What is the difference between Interior Design and Interior Decoration?
If your project includes just furnishings, light fixtures, and some accessories, then decoration is the appropriate service for your needs. If your scope of work includes new construction specifications, or you are about to embark on a full scale renovation of your home, then hiring interior designer is necessary. We offer both design and decor at Attitude Design Interiors.
When should I hire an interior designer/decorator?
We suggest that you hire a design professional before or around the time of hiring an architect, builder, or GC. Knowledgeable designers are able to enhance the project during this phase and to ensure that you receive the end result that you have dreamed off. We are here to guide you and to be your advocate throughout the process.
What’s the reason for bringing in a designer early in the construction process?
So let’s look at what happens when you don’t bring in a designer first- it’s almost like a filming a movie without a director. There is no one holding the full vision and no one sharing information with the team in a way they can process information. With the designer on board, you will have someone taking charge of all the decisions, someone who knows exactly how all the pieces in your very large project puzzle impacts the next, and someone who can and will, put the pieces and create a home that is uniquely you and breathtaking in every way.
4. What role do you play in our project?
Our team of craftsman,various artisans and trade professionals are trained to work with us. We are liaisons between you and them. Our job is to communicate the information on the who, what, where and how of your home.
5. How do we express your style?
We dig deep before we start designing for you because we want to get to know you on a deep and intimate level. To get there, we set up meetings with the intention of establishing direction through inspirational elements,extensive questionnaires and observations. In those meetings we ask a lot of questions and listen closely to your answers- because your answers tell us who you are, what’s important to you. After we get to know you,and through detailed consideration,we integrate the design idea into a new vision for your project.
6. How do you set a project budget?
The budget is where the realistic picture of your project begins, and we won’t start a project without one! A budget is a map that shows us how we can do the best job for you. We will walk you through the process of budgeting based on our extensive experience with similar projects. We find that many of our clients may know how much they want to invest ,but may not know what is a reasonable budget for all the expenditures.
7. What if we do not need or wish a full service for our project?
We do offer a various flat fee based design services that fit a majority of our client’s needs .You may contact us for more details and we will gladly provide you with a list of those .
I hope that this answers at least some of the questions that you might have ,don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any additional questions that we did not cover this time
Cheers, Tatiana!
