Working with a Designer

How many times have you started a project, changed your mind halfway through, and then lost all interest when you got so confused you didn't know what to do next to fix it? Or have you ever invested hours and hours into a project, finished and were unhappy with the results? Or do you just not have the time or ambition to implement such an ordeal?

The perception is that interior designers cost way too much money. Let's face it, any home remodel project costs way too much money. But in the long run, working with a designer can often save money. Working with a designer at the beginning of any project helps to create a flow which stands the test of time. Whether it is a kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, office, closet, basement or just window treatments and color consultation, a designer will work with you to take you through the process as painlessly as possible.


Following are some advantages to working with a designer: 


  • Designers will develop an overall plan for the project and visually share that plan so you can picture it in your home.
  • Designers' goals, while usually thought to only concern aesthetics, work to achieve a cohesive and functional environment.
  • Designers have a knowledge of how to work with contractors to direct them so you don't have to.
  • A designer has knowledge on not only the latest trends but what trends have withstood the test of time and are considered time-honored innovations.
