"Our bedroom makeover exceeded all expectations thanks to this talented interior designer. They completely transformed the concept, creating a calm and elegant space with a modern vibe. The addition of a wall in front of the built-in cabinets gave us the feel of a walk-in closet and smartly separated the sleeping and dressing areas, while still allowing natural light through a stylish rectangular opening. Thoughtful details like integrated outlets for tech gear made the design both beautiful and functional—we absolutely love the result!"

"Derek and his team were great. They showed up on time, cleaned up afterwards, and the work itself was fantastic. I had golden oak stained trim and stairs, dated from the 80s, and they were able to paint my stairs black and white and really give it a modern look. They also did work on my ceiling, front door and dining room. For some projects I wasn't exactly sure on color or design but Derek provided helpful advice and was flexible throughout the process when I kept changing my mind. He was responsive to questions and very informative. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for contracting services."

"Jesse completed a total kitchen demo and remodel as well as updating our dining room. Workmanship was fantastic. Jesse worked on all aspects of the remodel including plumbing, electrical, painting, installation, floors, cabinets, and even custom carpentry. Jesse is a great problem solver and perfectionist which is a must when working on old houses that just don't want to cooperate any more. Would highly recommend as we will be using him again in the future for a bathroom."

Interior Design and Decorating questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

Yes, pros can offer guidance to achieve desired aesthetics and match existing decor.

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.
