How much does a professional interior design project cost?

Using an interior designer is often perceived as a luxury and as an extra expense, but the reality is a good design team will help you manage costs and bring real value to the selection and purchasing process.  We have fabulous buying power with our association with AR Homes and accounts with most of the major furniture vendors.  Although the total cost will vary based on the size of the project, we understand the art of investing in the right pieces while staying within the confines of a realistic budget. We can assist you with any scale of project.

Do you only work on design projects with clients that are building with AR Homes?

We work with all clients building homes with AR Homes in the SC upstate and western NC to make the finish selections for the exterior and interior of their home.  Some of those clients will opt to work with our studio on the interior furnishings for their new home.  We are also open to clients interested in interiors projects that are not building with AR Homes.

What do your interior design services include and what is the process?

We will start with an initial design consultation to discuss the scope of your project and desired budget. We can assist with furniture, rugs, lamps, accessories, art, bedding, privacy window treatment and decorative window treatments. Once we set the scope of the project, we will create design presentations and detailed furniture layouts for your home. Once selections have been finalized, we will provide you with a detailed proposal. Upon approval of the proposal, we will submit, manage, and track all orders. Out team will oversee the receiving, warehousing, delivery, and installation for the entire project. The goal is to make this a seamless process for our clients and for them to walk into the home of their dreams.
