Why hire an interior designer?
Hiring an interior designer is a great way to ensure your home dreams come to life!
Alot of time and effort goes into picking the perfect apartment, house, or space for your business. It feels like such a relief when you find "the one" until you realize - it needs to be decorated to look nice while still being functional for your lifestyle and/or line of work. That's where I come in!
It's easy to spend hours scrolling through Pinterest or walking through the aisles of Home Goods looking for inspiration, but it can also be overwhelming and you still may not end up with the dream space that you had envisioned before you started. You may be starting to wonder, what are the other benefits of hiring an interior designer besides having your home decorated?
Creating a space that is functional, matters!
It is one thing to be able to create a beautiful space, but more importantly, it needs to be functional. Interior designers spend their careers mastering the balancing act of making the most of a space so that you can use and enjoy it. They are going to take the time to understand what you are using the space for, which features are most important to you, your budget for the space, and what you envision the space looking like when it is complete. If something doesn't align during the consultation like your dreams with your budget or the size of a certain piece of furniture that you love, your interior designer is going to help you set realistic expectations, and they will offer other suggestions for you. If you have any questions or concerns, don't be afraid to ask questions or give your input on what you do and don't like. At the end of the day, your designer wants the space to be functional for YOUR needs, and they are there to help.
They always have fresh ideas!
Interior Designers have trained eyes that see things differently, and they often bring unique ideas to the table that you probably wouldn't have thought about. Whether it is coming up with a way to make your space feel larger, improve the functionality, or bring it to life with a combination of color changes, they are sure to impress you with their ideas to bring your vision to life in the best way. They will also be able to take your existing space and furniture that you don't want to part with and reimagine the space by enhancing it with new pieces.
Great connections to complete the job!
Sometimes interior designers can't complete the job on their own, and they require some assistance from a craftsman. The good news is that they have contacts that they work with on a regular basis that they know will do an amazing job, and they will facilitate the work for you! It's not uncommon to need work done such as painting, flooring, trim, custom cabinets, etc. when redesigning a space. Having someone who can hire a contractor and ensure that the work is done right is going to take a load off of your shoulders for sure!
