FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What areas do you serve?
We are based in Chocowinity, North Carolina, and serve surrounding areas for in-person projects. We also offer virtual design services for clients across the country.
Do I need to know my style before working with you?
Not at all. Part of our process is helping you uncover what you love. We listen closely, offer inspiration, and guide you toward a look that feels true to you and your home.
What is the difference between full-service design and a consultation?
A consultation is a one-time session filled with expert advice and guidance. Full-service design is a more comprehensive experience where we manage everything from concept to installation.
How much does a project typically cost?
Each project is different and depends on the scope, size, and selections. We offer a range of services designed to meet various budgets and are happy to provide an estimate after our initial consultation.
Do you work with contractors or do I need to hire my own?
We take care of coordinating contractors and trades as part of your project. From scheduling to design oversight, we manage the details and work closely with trusted professionals to ensure your vision is carried out smoothly and with care.
Can you help with just one room?
Absolutely. Whether it is one room or an entire home, we approach each space with the same care and creativity.
How do I get started?
It all begins with a Discovery Call. We will chat about your space, your goals, and how we can help. From there, we will guide you toward the service that fits best.
Will I be able to see updates or design plans during the project?
Yes. We use Houzz Pro to keep everything organized. Through your personal client dashboard, you can view moodboards, approve selections, track timelines, and stay connected throughout the process.
Do you help with sourcing and purchasing?
Yes. We handle sourcing from trusted vendors and trade resources, and we manage purchasing for full-service clients. This ensures everything arrives on time, fits the plan, and meets our quality standards.
Where do you source furniture and finishes?
We source from a curated list of trade-only vendors and trusted suppliers. Every selection is thoughtfully chosen to reflect your style, suit your space, and meet the design goals we set together.
Will I get to approve everything before it's purchased?
Yes. Every piece is presented for your approval. We believe in clear communication and intentional design, and we want you to feel confident in every decision.
How involved do I need to be in the design process?
That is completely up to you. Some clients love being hands-on, while others prefer to hand it over and enjoy the reveal. Either way, we keep you informed with clear communication and thoughtful guidance at every stage.
Do you offer virtual design services?
Yes. We offer virtual consultations and curated design packages for clients outside of our local area. With tools like Houzz Pro, we can share floorplans, moodboards, selections, and updates all in one place, making remote collaboration simple and seamless.
Can I use pieces I already own?
Absolutely. We love incorporating meaningful pieces into a new design. Whether it is a family heirloom or a favorite sofa, we will work with what you have and build around it to create a cohesive and updated look.
How long does a typical project take?
Timelines vary depending on the scope of the project. During your consultation, we will provide an estimated timeline and keep you updated throughout the process. We focus on doing it right, not rushing it.
