Why hire a designer?
Hiring a professional design firm assures you the comfort of working with a team of experts who are trained, skilled and knowledgeable in all areas of design. Large or small, as your professional design team, we will explore your requirements and use our years of experience to develop a cohesive and purposeful design package. We carefully plan every detail by selecting the exact products and trade professionals needed to achieve beautiful results. We manage every step to help in the transformation of your project. The guidance and advice of a professional design team is invaluable. -
Do I need a designer or architect?
There are many areas of design that don’t require the cost of hiring an architect. The right professional designer has the skills to design and draft new space plans, including lighting and electrical layout, interior finishes such as cabinetry, countertops, flooring, plumbing fixtures, appliances and window treatments to name a few. Should your project require a structural engineer, sealed architectural drawings and/or local building permits for inspections, we will work out with our architect team. -
