While we specialize in residential design, we have experience in commercial design projects as well, working on bars, restaurants and hotels (Top Chef John Tesar's Eateries, W Hotels, Nissan Design America, etc.). We can design all aspects of your project. From decorating to remodels, we can help you.

"Charles and his team were recommended to us by several friends. We needed help with coordinating paint colors, flooring, furniture, and possible kitchen updates. We had some visions of what we wanted but kept getting overwhelmed with so many options that are available today. What we got was so much more than what had hoped for. We have so much confidence in Charles's expertise that we are continuously working with him on several other projects, still working on our kitchen, furniture pieces & design, and custom built-ins. He provides invaluable advice, taking time to really understand our likes and dislikes. He gave us an overall design for our entire home yet knew we needed to take steps to complete each area. There was never any pressure and has worked seamlessly with our busy schedule. Charles has a great vision, and an eye for detail, and gave us ideas on not only materials, and furnishing but overall layouts we never would have thought of. His organization and attention to detail are evident in every facet of his projects. Charles is truly a talented designer, and we would highly recommend him."

"Connie Burgher of "Cdesigns" is an amazing person and designer. She assisted me in putting together a new "home" for my brother in an assisted living facility. It was a difficult time as my brother had suffered a stroke and had been through many changes including selling his home of 30 years. Connie has such care and compassion in her approach to designing a personal space. First she learned about my brother, a retired Airman. She inquired about his tastes, his need for comfort and functionality in his new place. I was so impressed with her ability to translate all of the information we provided into a beautiful new home for my brother. She incorporated personal photos and momentos in a way that truly warmed his place. I cannot say enough about Connie's work, her vision, diligence, experience, her compassion for people and passion for design. Thank you Connie for creating a perfect new "home" for my brother!!"

"From our first chat on the phone I immediately liked Dina. Her energy and enthusiasm was wonderful and refreshing compared to other designers I had contacted for a comparatively small job. She made my job of redesigning my kitchen and great room easy. Dina immediately “got” my aesthetic and worked with it by presenting me with limited options in quartz, handles and colors. She suggested replacing old hinged doors on a built-in bookcase in the great room, transforming it from worn and “ho hum” to a fine piece of furniture. I am now thrilled to have a classy and modern kitchen and a great room that seems all “dressed up” with new paint, color and bookcase doors. Friends and family are amazed at the transformation too!"

"We enlisted the help of Callie and DR180 to help us design our remodeled home. We have kids and didn't have the time (or potentially the vision) to build the look ourselves. We are so glad we went with DR180. Callie took time to meet with my wife and I early on and learn what we liked and what we hated, and worked to come up with a proposal that met our desires but was also timeless. She balanced the inclusion of quality materials while respecting our budget. She is detail-oriented and attentive. We have gotten tons of compliments on our new home and we couldn't be happier."

Interior design and decorating services FAQs
Most interior designers have at least a four-year degree, if not an advanced degree in interior design. Additionally, many states require interior designers to be licensed. If your state does not require licensing, interior designers can take a licensing exam with the National Council of Interior Design Qualification (NCIDQ). Overall, licensing requirements vary from state to state, but most licenses require certain education levels and experience to qualify. To check the qualifications of your interior designer, use Angi’s state licensing tool.
The difference between an interior designer and an interior decorator is that the interior decorator focuses on the space’s colors, furniture, art, and finishes. An interior designer goes beyond that to plan and execute layouts, structural changes, and overall functionality in addition to aesthetics that the decorator manages. We recommend hiring an interior designer for major remodeling projects and hiring an interior decorator to establish or enhance your home’s interior style.
On average, hiring an interior designer costs about $8,200, ranging from $200 to $65,000, depending on where you live, the size of your home, and the type of decor. The total price tag of interior design services is based on whether they provide consultation and implementation as well as any specialty design services, such as home staging or digital design mock-ups. Residential interior designers typically charge an hourly rate of $50 to $200 per hour, or up to $500 per hour in areas with high demand.
Hiring an interior designer is often worth the investment, especially for larger projects beyond DIY interior design and project management skills. However, the decision to hire an interior designer depends on your budget and the size of the project. Some benefits of hiring an interior designer include:
Realizing the best layout and decor for optimal functionality of the space for your taste, budget, and lifestyle
Managing your project to keep the job on track and within budget
Assistance with home staging ahead of home sale
Serving as a point of contact for contractors
Accessing discounts from local suppliers
Before hiring an interior designer, ask a few questions to better understand how they work, what’s expected of you, and what they promise to deliver.
How long will the project take to complete?
What type of services do you offer?
Can you provide a project estimate?
Do you work with subcontractors?
Are you licensed or certified in this state?
Do you have a portfolio of previous work I can review?
May I contact your customer references?
How do you handle change orders?
How do you handle payment?
