Timing is Everything

Go Pro?

Six reasons why hiring an interior designer should be at the top of your “must-do” list.

In the pursuit of creating a beautiful and functional living space, the expertise of an interior designer can make all the difference. Whether building a custom home or embarking on a renovation, hiring an interior designer allows for a seamless process. Join us as we look at why hiring an interior designer should go at the top of your “must-do” list.

1. Expertise and Experience
Interior designers bring a wealth of knowledge and experience, a deep understanding of design principles, color theory, space planning, and furniture design. This expertise allows a designer to create highly styled spaces tailored to your needs.

 

2. Access to Resources
Interior designers have unparalleled access to a wide range of resources and tradespeople. With an ability to source bespoke furnishings, cutting-edge materials, and inspired decor, while helping you choose everything from the first tile to the last lampshade.

3. Time and Stress 

A designer manages the project from start to finish, coordinating every aspect. From scheduling installs to ensuring that materials arrive on time, this comprehensive management reduces stress and ensures the project stays on track and within budget.

4. Custom Design
An experienced interior designer takes the time to understand your lifestyle and personality. By considering how you use each space, designers can create solutions that improve functionality and add that “wow” factor. The result is a space that is inspired and chic, and tailored to your taste and way of life.

5. Attention to Detail

Interior designers have an eye for detail that ensures every element of your space is carefully considered. From the choice of fabrics and finishes to the placement of furniture and lighting, they curate each component to work harmoniously together. This meticulous attention to detail creates a cohesive and polished look.

6. Value Added

Hiring an interior designer can add value to your property. Well-designed spaces enhance your quality of life and also appeal to potential buyers. In the competitive real estate market, a professionally designed interior can set your property apart.

 

Hiring an interior designer will help you create an inspiring space that aligns with your vision. Working with a designer provides an expert who will give you high-impact results while avoiding costly mistakes. From sourcing the most sought-after tradespeople to the latest wallpaper, a designer has the vision to create a cohesive design. By entrusting your project to a professional, you ensure that every aspect of your design is thoughtfully executed, resulting in a home that is truly a reflection of you.

It’s Time

By Jack Lonetto, Interior Designer, The Decorators Unlimited

 
When is the best time to hire an Interior Designer?  While the common notion is to bring your interior designer on board after the architect has completed the house design, the optimal approach is at the project’s inception.

Team Work

Collaboration between the client, architect, structural and mechanical engineers, interior designer, builder, landscape architect, and other associated professionals from the outset, ensures the most thoughtful and cohesive design.

Waiting until after the house design is finalized, including structural and mechanical systems, limits the interior design potential and may lead to costly adjustments. 

Finish Line

Retaining your interior designer after your builder has provided a construction budget is problematic because monetary allowances for finish material costs have been provided without selections ever being made.  Often allowances provided have been under-estimated to meet the client’s overall budget, and as a result either the project price will increase or the client will be stuck with lesser value finishes, both of which result in an unhappy client.

Approaching the design of your home as a holistic endeavor ensures the most cohesive design, the most thoughtful integration of systems, and practical budget analysis.
