Interior Design Consultation

All design consultations require a minimum commitment of 30 hours. This ensures we can provide substantive, actionable design guidance rather than a brief overview.

Absolutely. Many of our most rewarding client relationships began with a consultation. If the scope expands, we seamlessly transition to our full-service model.

You receive a comprehensive design direction document including spatial recommendations, material and finish guidance, furniture layout suggestions, color palette direction, and a prioritized action plan — giving you a clear roadmap whether you proceed independently or with our ongoing support.

Yes — a consultation is often the ideal first step for new construction clients. It allows us to review architectural plans, advise on interior-impacting decisions, and help you determine whether a full-service engagement is the right path before construction begins.

Consultations are billed as an hourly design retainer against a 30-hour minimum, so investment scales with the number of rooms and the depth of architectural review involved. We quote a specific figure after a brief discovery call, once we understand the scope, timeline, and whether construction drawings are already in hand.

Share architectural plans or a floor plan, photographs of the rooms in question, any inspiration images you have collected, and a candid sense of your budget range and timeline. The more context provided in advance, the more of the session is spent on design direction rather than fact-finding.

Yes. Virtual consultations are available for clients throughout North and South Carolina and nationally, conducted by video with plans and material references reviewed on screen. In-person sessions are standard for Charlotte, Myers Park, SouthPark, Eastover, Ballantyne, and the Lake Norman corridor.

A consultation delivers direction — spatial recommendations, finish guidance, and a prioritized action plan you can execute yourself. Full-service interior design carries that direction through specification, procurement, trade coordination, and installation, with the studio managing every decision from schematic design to final placement.
