"As an investor who buys properties oftenâ ¦ I am always in a search for a reliable, honest, capable and nice people to work with. Eran and his crew at ESL Designs are one of the best contractors that I came across recently and now I know that if they will get involved in any other remodeling project with meâ ¦ they will do it on the best side and without any delays or issues that canâ t be solved. The reason for my that caused me to hire them was to remodel a new investment house that I purchased recently and that required the remodeling of the bathrooms, small repairs in the kitchen and hallways, including some improvements in the front of the house. Eran has a large experience in the industry and he proved his design skills to be perfect for what I needed. In my industryâ ¦ itâ s hard to find someone that have a great knowledge, ideas, solutions and design experience. Eranâ s work came out perfect and i will do more business with him and ESL Designs on every remodeling job that I take on."

"I hired Ramy and his team to help me build out some closets. He was very communicative and easy to work with. The team showed up on time, collaborated with me on the design, worked fast, were very respectful of the home the whole time, and cleaned up nicely. Highly recommend R Design for any contract work!"

Interior Design and Decorating questions, answered by experts

Decorating a tree yourself will only take between one and two hours, but a professional designer may take more time to create their vision. When hiring a pro, assume the work will take a minimum of three to four hours.

While the terms 'interior designer' and 'interior decorator' are often used interchangeably, they represent distinct professions with some overlapping work. The primary difference lies in the scope of their projects.

An interior decorator focuses on the aesthetics of a space, making less permanent decisions about decor. Their work involves selecting colors, fabrics, furniture, wall art, paint, and other finishes to 'dress' a room and enhance its style.

An interior designer has a broader scope that includes a decorator's aesthetic focus but also extends to the structural and functional aspects of a space. Designers are qualified to plan layouts, make structural changes, and manage overall functionality. They handle permanent decisions regarding fixtures like cabinets and bathtubs, establish floor plans, and may hire contractors.

Due to the technical skills required, interior designers typically have formal education, certification, and may hold a license, which can result in higher fees. As a general rule, it is best to hire an interior designer for major remodeling projects and an interior decorator for projects focused on establishing or refreshing a home's interior style.

Current trends in custom furniture design are heavily influenced by a desire for sustainability and functionality, often incorporating reclaimed or eco-friendly materials. There is also a focus on multifunctionality, allowing pieces to adapt to various needs and spaces.

Costs depend on project size, customization, and the designer’s experience and hourly rate.

Whether hiring an interior designer is worth the cost depends on your budget, the scope of the project, and your own design and project management skills. For larger projects or those beyond your DIY skills, an interior designer is often a worthwhile investment. The benefits include realizing the best layout, functionality, and decor for your lifestyle and taste; managing the project to keep it on track and within budget; serving as a point of contact for contractors; accessing discounts from suppliers; and assisting with home staging for a sale.
