Services we offer
As an interior designer and project manager I offer a range of services to assist clients in achieving their desired aesthetic and functional goals for their living or working spaces. Here are some common services provided by an interior designer and project manager:
Space planning: Evaluate the available space and develop a functional layout that optimizes the flow and functionality of the area. This includes determining the placement of furniture, fixtures, and equipment.
Concept development: Create a concept or theme for the space. This involves selecting color schemes, materials, finishes, and overall design style to create a cohesive and visually appealing environment.
Furniture and material selection: Helps clients choose suitable furniture, fixtures, lighting, and accessories that align with the design concept. They also assist in selecting appropriate materials for flooring, wall coverings, window treatments, and other elements.
Custom designs: Collaborate with craftsmen to create custom furniture, cabinetry, or unique design elements tailored to the client's specific requirements and style preferences.
Coordination with contractors and vendors: As a project manager oversees the entire remodeling process & coordinate with contractors, electricians, plumbers, and other specialists to ensure smooth execution of the project.
Construction administration: During the construction or remodeling phase, the project manager oversees the progress, conducts site visits, and ensures that the work is executed according to the design plans and specifications.
Finishing touches and styling: instructs on placement of furniture & décor.
These services may vary. It's important to discuss individual needs and expectations with the professional to determine the most suitable services for your project.
Services we don't offer
There are certain services that typically fall outside the scope an interior designer & project managers area of expertise. Here are some examples of services that interior designers generally do not offer:
Structural modifications: Interior designers typically do not handle structural changes to a space, such as removing or adding walls, changing the building's footprint, or altering the load-bearing structure. These tasks are typically performed by architects or structural engineers.
Plumbing and electrical work: Interior designers do not typically handle plumbing or electrical installations or repairs. They may work closely with licensed plumbers and electricians to ensure that design plans align with the necessary infrastructure requirements.
Construction or general contracting: While interior designers may manage and oversee the remodeling process, we are not involved in the hands-on construction work.
Legal or permitting requirements: Interior designers do not typically handle legal aspects or permitting processes associated with construction or remodeling projects.
Structural engineering or architectural services: While interior designers work closely with architects and structural engineers, they do not provide the same level of expertise in structural design and engineering. If major structural modifications or architectural plans are required, consulting an architect or structural engineer is recommended.
Physical Labor: Interior designers typically do not engage in physical labor. While we play a crucial role in conceptualizing, planning, and coordinating the design process, our focus lies more on the creative and managerial aspects rather than hands-on construction or manual labor. The interior designer's role is to provide guidance, supervision, and artistic direction to ensure that the design vision is implemented correctly and to the client's satisfaction.
