Customers say: Super punctual

"This is the second time that we’ve engaged Tess to help us with interior design. She’s done room redesigns as well as color consultations for us. Both times, she was wonderful. Tess has a unique talent for taking people’s design ideas and impressions and turning that into reality. She’s thoughtful about both her clients desires as well as the realities of their situation and uses this information to create spaces that are inviting and functional. We’d absolutely recommend her again."

"The service was impeccable. Everything was explained well and thorough. The job was completed as I asked with a few adjustments that were necessary due to my particular set up. It came out honestly better than expected. Would definitely recommend and be using them again when Iâ m ready. TV is perfectly level and secure and the surround sound is spot on."

Interior Design and Decorating questions, answered by experts

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.

Some architects include interior design in their portfolio of offerings, while some architectural firms employ interior designers to handle that aspect of home building projects or refer clients to interior designers they’ve worked with in the past. Ask a local architect whether they offer interior design services as well.

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.

Services include layout planning, furniture selection, color coordination, and lighting design to optimize your space.

You should always hang the lights before the ornaments because hanging lights on top of ornaments can cause some to fall off. If a light sits directly on top of an ornament, it can cause it to heat up and possibly change its color or cause it to crack.
