"The project manager (Kadir) and designer (Leah) are professional, experienced, and customer-focused. They provided quality materials and skilled craftsmen/builders, making the remodel as painless as possible. I also appreciated the fact that they did not try to "upsell" me. The designer (Leah) is gifted and her vision helped us reengineer and maximize a tiny space - turning it into a luxury bathroom. She and owner, Joe, helped me keep within my price range, while still exceeding my expectations with masterful work. It's beautiful, Leah. Thank you all so very much! I'll be reaching out for an estimate on Kitchen counter tops in the Spring. I thank you all! I highly recommend Blackstone!"

"Gary was professional and listened to my requirements. Great communication through the whole design process. My addition was unique and unusual, attached to a A-Frame home, into a bank, with a flat roof. I would highly recommend Kapital Drafting without hesitation."

"Berny Hintz is a super architect who values the customer/client relationship. His work is outstanding--we did not have a good idea of how to reformat our master bedroom/bath to make it useful and convenient to our house design. Berny came up with wonderful ideas. He has jumped through "hoops" when county permit issues arose. He created a 3-d visual of our renovations that we could view using the client version of the software. Berny has been realistic in time-frame of the design phase, construction phase, and cost expectations. We are just finished with design now and met with contractors."

"Knowledgeable, creative, reliable designer, able to understand and accommodate client's ideas and existing space and design features. I especially appreciated the transparency of the website: options, pricing, deliverables, etc. She provided an excellent final design, "Z-Box, " with options; overall, we were pleased with this. However, it would have been better if two or three different rough sketches to choose from were provided early on in the process; the client's selection and feedback then could be developed into the final plan."

Residential Design questions, answered by experts

Pros offer design expertise and suggestions tailored to fit your space, style, and budget.

Yes, open floor plans can be more expensive to build than non-open floor plans. The primary reason is the need for additional structural support to ensure stability, which can increase construction costs. Additionally, open floor plans need powerful HVAC systems to maintain temperature in a wider space. Finally, open floor plans need more flooring to cover a large area. If you are buying a home with an open floor plan, you won’t see dramatic price differences compared to a home with more rooms.

The main difference between a home stager and an interior designer is that the former creates temporary, generally appealing spaces, while the latter creates personalized design choices for your permanent home. A home stager seeks to depersonalize your home while also showing off the best features of the home to potential buyers. An interior designer works with you to infuse your personal style into the decor in your home. You’ll typically only hire a local home stager when selling your home.

Depending on project size, materials, and complexity, design fees range from $2,000 to $15,000.

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.
