Design fees are determined based on the scope, size, and complexity of each project. After our initial consultation, we provide a clear proposal outlining the services included and the associated fees. We believe in transparency, so you’ll understand exactly what to expect before moving forward.

How do you charge for your services?

Yes, we charge a consultation fee. This allows us to dedicate focused time to reviewing your project, discussing your goals, and providing professional insight from the start. It also enables us to prepare a customized design proposal tailored specifically to your home and scope of work. If you choose to move forward, the consultation fee will be credited toward your project. You can book your consultation directly online here.

do you charge for an initial consultation?

Our process begins with listening. We start with an initial consultation to understand your goals, lifestyle, budget, and timeline. From there, we move into conceptual design, refining plans and details before coordinating with consultants and contractors to ensure a smooth transition into construction. Throughout each phase, we provide guidance, clarity, and collaboration — keeping you informed and involved every step of the way.

What is your design process?

Before our first meeting, we recommend gathering inspiration images, notes on your priorities, and any relevant information about your home. It’s helpful to consider your goals, timeline, and investment range. The more we understand about how you live and what you envision, the more productive and meaningful our conversation will be.
