"Hands down the best decision I made this year was hiring KBR Design & Build to redo my kitchen AND bathroom. Both spaces were so outdated, and now they feel like they belong in a design magazine. The team made the entire process stress-free (which, let’s be real, is rare with renovations), and they handled every little hiccup like pros. The attention to detail is insane, and I love that they actually listened to what I wanted instead of just doing a cookie-cutter design. Worth every penny!"

"Beyond expectation since the first visit. Mr. Calderon was puntual, listened all our ideas and gave us recommendations. His proposal considered our personalities, a modern/contemporary design. Excellent communication and respond right away. We are definitely going to hire him in future projects."

"I recently hired Ms. & Mr. Construction to build a new deck, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. They helped guide me through material choices and design options, while my budget in mind. The crew showed up on time, worked efficiently, and left the site clean every day. Highly recommend them!"

"Block made this process very simple (or as simple as it can be), and we are really happy with the design assistance we got, as well as them walking us through the design phase, procurement, board package, etc. Would definitely use again!"

"We hired Stefany to manage the space planning and interior design for our recently purchased 4 floor, 3700 sq/ft townhome in FL. She handled everything from start to finish. She took all measurements, assisted in space planning, sourced, purchased and coordinated the installation of new furniture, rugs, accessories and lighting fixtures for an entryway, two bedrooms, a home office, a living room, dining room, family/TV room and a guest suite. Stefany was professional, knowledgeable, listened to our requests, had great ideas and solutions and she found us some lovely new vintage pieces to mix with our own furniture. She brought out our own individual style and we could not be happier."

Interior Design and Decorating questions, answered by experts

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.

An architect is usually involved in the process of determining the layout and structural features and requirements of the home itself, taking into account the local codes, climate, and materials needed to make the home structurally sound. Architects may communicate more with contractors and subcontractors throughout the building process. In comparison to architects, interior designers typically focus on the aesthetics of a home interior and possibly exterior, helping the homeowner decide on color schemes, textures, and materials to incorporate into the design. 

Look to the professionals when figuring out the secrets to styling a bookshelf. Place decor in varying heights, mix colors and textures, and always create a balanced overall design by alternating where you place extra decor items. Most importantly, don't overfill the shelf. Leave a bit of open space to deter clutter.

Hiring a high-quality interior decorator should always start with reading through online reviews to see the kind of experience other homeowners have had. You can narrow down your search and then ask the remaining companies for references and examples of their past work. It’s during this stage that you’re likely to find a company that suits your specific tastes and one that has experience with the style you want to bring into your home. You should consider calling references to ask about the process and the homeowners’ experiences with the decorator before, during, and after service.

While the Arts and Crafts movement inspired many architectural elements, the primary styles from the time include Craftsman, Tudor Revivals, bungalows, and Mission homes. You'll see elements of these styles in homes, churches, museums, and schools—particularly Country Day schools from the era.
