Frequently Asked Questions
Can you help me virtually?
Yes. we work with clients both in person and virtually.
Virtual sessions are ideal if you want guidance on layout, furniture selection, styling, or finishing touches without an on-site visit. We review your space together, talk through options, and make clear decisions in real time. Many clients are surprised by how effective this can be.
How long does a redesign usually take?
Most redesigns need only a 3 hour working session. If additional support is needed, that can be scheduled separately based on your needs.
Do I need to buy all new furniture?
Not at all. We usually work with what you already own and identify what’s worth keeping. If something is missing, we focus on a few intentional pieces rather than replacing everything. That said, if you’re moving into a new place or starting fresh, we can also help source and design an entire space from scratch. The goal is clarity and cohesion, whether we’re refining what’s there or building something new.
​
What if I don’t know my style?
That’s completely normal, and part of our job. You don’t need to have the vocabulary or references. We ask the right questions, read the space, and translate your preferences into something that feels natural, comfortable, and intentional.
Can you help with shopping?
Yes. Shopping can be part of a session or handled separately. Some clients prefer to shop together, others want a curated list they can purchase on their own, and some ask me to take care of everything. We choose the approach that fits you best.
Do you offer installation or styling help?
Yes. We help with styling, placement, and moving items where it makes sense. For heavier furniture or more involved setup, we simply plan accordingly. If extra help is needed, that can be arranged separately.
Is this only for people selling their home?
No. While we do work with homes preparing for sale, many clients simply want their home to feel better to live in, more calm, more intentional, more finished. The process is similar, but the focus is always on how you want the space to feel.
