"As part of our remodeling project, we asked Wendy to assist us in selecting paint colors for 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a hallway. Wendy was responsive to our inquiry and arranged to visit our house. Wendy arrived right on time and offered her recommendations for paint colors based on our decor (bedding, furniture, faucets, tile). Wendy's recommendations included positives and negatives associated with various choices--we found her insights to be very helpful in identifying the right color choices for us. Wendy was very easy to work with and we'd use her again when we need interior decorating assistance."

"I am so happy that I found Lori. My previous designer was good but her choices have not stood the test of time. I like things simple and very clean, but not boring so I hired Lori to refresh the space with new smaller pieces (eg drink tables, lamps) and colors (artwork, pillows etc). She listened to be carefully and knew how to take the basics and turn them into something elevated. I love coming home now to my new rooms and entertaining guests. I am eager and excited for her to get started on the TV room!"

Interior Design and Decorating questions, answered by experts

Services include layout planning, material selection, lighting design, and appliance placement to optimize the space.

British architect John Nash is credited with creating the Italianate style of architecture. The style was further popularized in the U.S. by landscape architect Andrew Jackson Downing and architect Calvert Vaux. The style spread across the U.S. due to Downing’s popular book on the style and the availability of plans and materials due to the mass production of the Industrial Revolution.

Experts assess weight, select appropriate hangers, align pieces, and install securely using safe techniques that ensure an even and aesthetically pleasing display.

Any homeowner can carry out interior decoration themselves, but many struggle to devise a cohesive and appealing design that balances comfort and aesthetics. Interior designers are not only trained in design principles, but they also design home interiors for a living, so they’re much more likely to produce a final product that meets your needs. Hiring a professional can sometimes lead to savings on the materials, as some experts know how to source more affordable decor and furniture via their professional connections.

It depends on the scope of the project and your confidence in your own design capabilities. If you’re simply replacing a few appliances or want to change the cabinetry, you most likely do not need a designer. If you’re doing a full reno, you should bring in a pro unless you have a very strong design sense and want to spend hours laboring over the various technical details.
