Design Fees:
Our design fees can vary depending on the size and scope of your project. No project is too small or too large. Below provides a general guideline of our pricing:
- Initial Consultation $250-$750
This includes a meeting to tour your property and discuss your decorating needs. We will measure and photograph the space, with your permission. We will provide a follow-up design concept along with a high-level overview of the cost of completing your project.
- Design Fee $250 - 500/per room
We create a design for your space, locate paint and flooring samples, fabric swatches, lighting, art, and accessories for your review.
Note: An entrance foyer and powder room are the equivalents of one room
A Master bedroom and master bath is the equivalent of one room
A kitchen and an eat-in nook is the equivalent of one room
- Trade Commission 10%
Trade commission is our fee for locating furniture, renovation products, accessories, and lighting. For example, if we locate an accessory that costs $100, the trade commission is 10% of $100 = $10. We literally travel to our vendors’ shops and showrooms to see items in person, touch fabrics and test seating.
- Extra Services $150/hours
We charge an hourly rate for Finishing Support and Retail Shopping Services (described above).
