Frequently Asked Questions

I have always been apprehensive about hiring an interior designer. Should I be?

It's entirely understandable to experience some hesitation when considering the involvement of a professional in your personal space. Rest assured, a proficient interior designer will partner with you, valuing your input and aiming to ensure that the transformation journey is both delightful and seamless.

When can we expect our project to get started with your firm?

As a boutique-style design service, we prioritize quality over quantity and typically take on only 1-2 projects at a time. Our availability may vary depending on our current workload, but we are dedicated to providing transparent communication from the beginning. This approach allows us to focus 100% on each client, ensuring that we can fully dedicate our attention to your project and remain accessible to address your needs.

How does your pricing structure work to ensure there are no unexpected costs? -

Our pricing is based on a flat rate determined by the square footage of your space. This approach is designed to provide clarity and transparency, ensuring that our clients are not burdened with hourly charges or unexpected fees. By establishing a payment schedule at the outset and signing a contract, you can rest assured that there will be no surprises. Any changes in project scope will be clearly communicated, and if necessary, a new contract will be drafted to reflect these adjustments.

What happens if I am not satisfied with the initial design concept?

If you are not completely satisfied with the initial design concept, please know that we will continue to collaborate with you until the final design presentation has been approved. We value your input and strive to tailor the project according to your preferences at every stage of the design development process. Your feedback is crucial, and we ensure open communication to keep you informed throughout the journey. Moreover, you will have access to your client dashboard where you can review selections and pricing, ensuring transparency throughout the design process.

Will my personal style be reflected in the design you create?

At our firm, the focus is always on creating designs that reflect your unique style and preferences. We believe in a client-centric approach, tailoring every aspect of the design to suit your lifestyle and personal taste. Our goal is to enhance your living space in a way that is both functional and personalized, without imposing our own aesthetic preferences. Throughout the process, we work closely with you to ensure that the end result is cohesive and truly reflective of your vision.

Can you outline the typical timeline for a design project from inception to completion?

The timeline for our design projects typically ranges from 3-12 weeks, starting from the initial stages to the final design presentation. This timeframe includes various stages such as design development, concept design presentation, and final design review. The duration of the process is influenced by the complexity of the project, with remodels or new builds naturally requiring more time compared to furnishing or single-room projects. We guide you through each step of the design process, emphasizing the collaborative nature of our work and the importance of ongoing communication with our clients.

Ria's interior design expertise truly made the process an absolute pleasure.

What impressed me the most was her unwavering commitment to communication and follow-up. No question went unanswered, and she was always readily available to address any concerns or queries I had along the way.

One of Ria's greatest strengths is her ability to listen attentively to her clients. She took the time to understand my preferences and needs, offering insightful suggestions that elevated the design to new heights. Her recommendations weren't just about aesthetics; they were tailored to optimize functionality and enhance the overall ambiance of the space.

I couldn't be happier with the results, and I wholeheartedly recommend Ria to anyone seeking a truly transformative interior design journey.

Allison W.

Ria did a wonderful job on designing my space. She really took the time to discuss with me my ideas to get a sense of my needs and style. Her communication throughout the process has been phenomenal so I’ve always known when to expect things from her. She’s been responsive to my feedback and to exploring options that fit my design preference. I look forward to working with Ria on more design projects!

DEG Videos

I really enjoyed working with Ria, she was great at taking direction and finding the look you had in mind, but any time you weren't quite sure what to do with a space she was quick to offer guidance.  I think she went above and beyond to make the whole process enjoyable and as easy as possible.

Josh T.

I was looking for something more polished for my main bedroom. Ria created a beautiful, custom design plan for me based on my preferences and how we use the room. Would highly recommend.

Trina P.

I needed a rental space decorated after my divorce and I was on a budget. Ria came in and understood what I wanted to accomplish and listened to my feedback throughout the process. Although we went slightly over budget, in the end my home now feels like "me" and is soooooo comfortable and cozy when I need to relax and decompress in the evenings after work.

I debated only giving 4 stars instead of 5 due to being slightly over budget (I wish there was a 4.99 rating), but this was a near-ideal outcome in terms of how much I enjoy the spaces she decorated - so 5 stars it is!!!

Thanks Ria for an incredible job!

Ria did a great job with my project. She was patient and took the time to get to know everything I was looking for. Throughout the whole process she was in constant communication with me about how work was going, what issues came up, and how she was helping to take care of them. She was very frank about prices and timelines, but also worked really hard to help me find the right style and stay within budget.  At first I wasn't sure I wanted to spend money on a designer, but I'll definitely be reaching out to her for future projects.
