Everyone longs for transformation. Living in the same space day after day we fantasize of what décor we can change. Everybody has a dream room; whether it is an amazing Master Suite or a Gourmet Kitchen.
At some point it is time to redecorate or you may be moving and have the excitement of planning and decorating a new abode. As you ponder paint colors, types of flooring, appliances, fixtures, and furnishings the project can become overwhelming. With so many choices you stop and shout “help me”!
Help is on the way; you have a few options:
- Hire an Interior Designer; you can hire a professional to do your complete project for you from plans and choosing finishes and furnishings to hiring the contractors and overseeing everything.
- A simple consultation with an Interior Designer; this is much less costly than having the designer oversee the complete project. An Interior Designer will charge you a small fee to answer important design questions, help you choose paint colors, and make small suggestions. They will also offer a la cart services (floor plans, furniture specifications, etc.) as needed, on a fee or hourly basis.
