Question 1

Why should I hire an interior designer?

Accepted Answer

Hiring an interior designer saves you time, money, and stress. I’ll help you create a cohesive, personalized look that meets your goals, whether it’s refreshing a single room, and entire home, or prioritizing ROI and booking for a rental property. My process ensures that you avoid costly mistakes and achieve the best results for your budget.

Question 2

What's the process for designing my space?

Accepted Answer

Whether you're local to Steamboat Springs or looking for help virtually, our process is flexible and simple. We can tailor the process to your needs and budget. Here are the general steps for most projects:
We’ll start with a free, no-obligations consultation, either in-person or virtually, to understand your needs, preferences, and budget.
I provide an estimate, along with a clear list of deliverables.
I’ll create a mood board presentation to get us started. This allows us to easily make adjustments early in the process about the overall direction of the design.
Measurements of the space will be taken, as needed. For virtual clients, we can have the space 3D scanned by a specialized photographer in your area. This gives us an accurate visual of the current space, as well as the ability to take measurements virtually!
Once we're all happy with the direction of the design, a 3D model of the space can be generated, as needed, and edited as we progress through the details of the design. This model provides a more accurate view of the space, design, and layout. This 3D model can be viewed and interacted with through a web-link, and requires no special software on your end. 
With a complete design, you’ll receive a complete shopping list, staging instructions, timelines, and dimensioned drawings (as needed) to execute the design at your own pace. For local clients, we are happy to provide in-person guidance.

Question 3

What types of projects do you take on?

Accepted Answer

Whether it’s a single room, entire home, or vacation rental property, I can tailor my services to your needs.

Question 4

Do you take on project management?

Accepted Answer

No, I don’t handle project management. Instead, I empower you with all the tools and guidance you need to implement the design yourself or with your contractors. I'm also more-than-happy to recommend any of the local sub-contractors and suppliers I've had great experiences with!

Question 5

Can you work with my budget?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! I’ll tailor the design to fit your budget, focusing on where to save and where to invest for the most impact. A detailed shopping list also gives you a transparent look at furniture, material, and finish selections, allowing you to choose the right products for your price range.
