Our Process

Interior Design is only as good as the client experience. We take the time to understand your needs and expectations before any project begins. Transparency is fundamental to our philosophy so we can address the uncertainties around a project’s process and cost.

STEP 1: "Ask Me Anything" Meeting

We’ll talk about project scope, taste, and budget for your brownstone project so we can ensure there’s a good fit before discussing and offering a proposal.

STEP 2: Site Visit and Measuring

Once onboard, we come to you for measurements, eliciting your style and aesthetic, and to get a feel for the space. We’ll discuss any specific design elements that are important to you, as well as guide you for any changes or updates you’d like to make.

 

STEP 3: Drawings for a Path Forward

We take information you’ve given us to create a preliminary floor and furniture plan for your brownstone apartment. We’ll show you how we’ll use your space and unlock functionality and beauty. For larger renovations, we’ll create elevations showing walls and materials to make your future dream home that much easier to understand.

 

 

STEP 4: Presentation Walkthrough

Building on our drawings, we take the information we’ve gathered to create a presentation that includes space renderings and furniture plans. Beyond furniture and lighting images, this may include meetings in showrooms to review specific pieces, home fixtures, and materials for surfaces such as walls.

 

 

 

STEP 5: Client Review Meeting

Your feedback and engagement are crucial! Throughout the process, but especially after our presentation, we adapt and adjust the plan based on your feedback. It’s your home and we want to ensure you’re satisfied with all our services provided.
