Frequently Asked Questions
What services do we offer?
We provide full-service residential interior design, including renovations, new construction, furnishings, space planning, finish selections, custom cabinetry and millwork, lighting design, window treatments, and styling. We also offer design consulting and color consulting for clients who need focused guidance rather than full project management.
Do we work on renovations, new construction, or furnishings-only projects?
We specialize in all three! Whether you’re remodeling a kitchen, building a custom home, furnishing an entire residence, or refreshing a few key spaces, we tailor our scope to your needs.
Where are we located and what areas do you serve?
We’re based in Flat Rock, North Carolina and work throughout Asheville, Hendersonville, and surrounding communities in Western North Carolina. We also accept select national projects!
When is the best time to hire an interior designer?
The earlier, the better! Bringing us in during the planning or architectural phase allows us to influence layouts, electrical plans, cabinetry, and finishes before costly decisions are locked in—saving time, money, and stress.
What is our design process?
Our process is collaborative and highly personalized. We begin by learning how you live, what inspires you, and what success looks
like for your home. From there, we develop a cohesive design plan, manage selections and specifications, coordinate with your builder or trades, and oversee ordering and installation. We present floor plans, finish selections, furniture layouts, and visual references so you can clearly understand the design direction before approvals.
Do we work with our client's builders and contractors?
Absolutely! Contractors appreciate our detailed drawings and specifications packages, and we enjoy working closely with your build team to ensure the design is executed beautifully and efficiently.
What is our design style?
Our work is timeless, layered, and tailored to each client. Rather
than a single signature look, we design homes that feel elevated,
comfortable, and personal—reflecting your lifestyle and architecture.
How long does an interior design project typically take?
Timelines vary based on scope and complexity. Furnishings projects
may take several months, while renovations and new construction
can span a year or more. We provide estimated timelines during the
planning phase and keep you informed throughout.
How do we charge for our services?
We offer several fee structures depending on the project type, including design fees, hourly consulting, and furnishings management. After an initial consultation, we’ll provide a clear proposal outlining scope, fees, and expectations.
Do we have a minimum budget requirement?
We do have general investment minimums to ensure we can deliver the level of quality and service we’re known for. During our discovery call, we’ll discuss budget ranges to confirm a good fit.
Can we work within a client's budget?
Of course! We design with intention and transparency, helping prioritize
where to invest and where to save, while still achieving a cohesive,
high-quality result.
Do we sell furniture and materials directly?
Yes. We source from trusted trade-only vendors and manage purchasing, tracking, delivery, and installation on your behalf.
Do we take on commercial or hospitality projects?
Yes! We work on select boutique commercial and hospitality projects that align with our studio’s aesthetic and approach.
Why should you hire an interior designer?
A professional designer saves you time, prevents costly mistakes, and ensures your home functions beautifully and looks cohesive. We manage thousands of decisions on your behalf so you can enjoy the process and the finished result.
