Full-service interior design covers concept to completion and is typically a long-term, multi-phase endeavor. Beginning with the existing architecture and following through construction and final installation, full-service design most significantly includes purchasing and sourcing of all furniture and accessories.
Interior designers may join the project at any phase and should be able to seamlessly integrate with your existing team of architects and contractors as needed. Our studio’s full-service approach prefers joining the project at the beginning and following through construction to completion, ensuring a holistic and mutual vision between interior design, architecture, and landscape.
We will have a series of complimentary emails and phone calls with you to identify your project needs and walk you through our process. We will assist you in determining the initial project scope, developing a budget range and desired timeline, and dividing responsibility among the project team.
After we have discussed your project over the phone, an in-person consultation is the next step to determine fit and brainstorm initial ideas. We offer 60-minute initial consultations for $550 at our Berkeley studio or at your local project location for a walk-through of the site, where we’ll be able to discuss potential plans and gather enough information on our end to determine the project scope. Please ask about our consultation rates for projects that require travel outside of the Bay Area or New York City.
Throughout every phase of design, our studio works to present drawings, sketches, and reference images to bring the concept to life, using both 2D and 3D renderings as needed.
Our team updates you regularly as the project develops, managing all points of contact. All purchases are submitted for review prior to ordering, and drawings and spreadsheets are provided for the installer trades.
We view our clients as active collaborators, so we establish a regular schedule of meetings and calls to help everyone stay connected. In the busiest phases, interior design clients and the working construction team are asked to be available at least once a week to check in to the project.
Our studio specializes in high-end residential and whole homes with a small selection of boutique commercial projects. We don’t have an official minimum budget requirement, though our boutique size means we must be selective with our projects; in a typical year, this might mean 8-10 projects ranging in budgets from $1 million to $8 million. These projects often include renovation construction as well as furnishings.
Invoicing for design services is handled through our trusted agency at The Eye. After speaking with you, our agents will help you determine a budget, answer all questions about the fee structure, and collect a deposit at the start of the project. For a more detailed description of what your unique budget may look like, we recommend starting a conversation early on with our agents.
Soft costs are fees incurred in the construction of a building that are not directly related to construction labor and building materials. Soft costs include design and architecture services, subcontracted support services, and permitting fees. When planning your budget for construction, consider that soft costs will account for 25-35% of your project budget in addition to your build cost. These fees are for responsibilities distributed among the project team and generally will not alter even as different tasks shift to different teams.
A purchasing service is implemented as part of our full-service interior design package. Furnishings are invoiced at the time of approval and are sold to you at or below retail cost. Our service includes confirming all specifications, submitting payment, and order tracking. Deliveries are made to our commercial receivers who will unpack and inspect each item on arrival. Once a large amount of furnishings have arrived at the facility, we will schedule and supervise your installation.
Our timelines for whole homes typically range from 1.5 to 4 years. Luxury takes time, although smaller projects and individual rooms can be expedited. Timelines are unique to each project and will vary.
