Whether you just put a down payment on a new house or have lived in your home for years, you may want to consider hiring an interior designer. Bringing in an expert not only ensures you’ll get your ultimate dream home, but it takes away the stress of knowing how to maximize your floor plan and sourcing high-quality pieces. If the thought of bringing in an expert seems intimidating, I’m here to break down exactly when you should hire an interior designer, what we do, and why it makes sense. While this comes with a price tag, it will seriously be one of the best decisions you ever make for your home.
When Moving into a New Home
Purchasing or building a new home is a milestone to be celebrated! But, it can be extremely overwhelming and stressful. That’s why I always recommend bringing in an interior designer as early as possible.
At SLB Interiors, we love being involved from the get-go in order to make the biggest impact on your new home both functionally and aesthetically. We can also help you establish which pieces to pack up and take with you – and which ones to leave so that your transition is as seamless as possible. Our ultimate goal is to take the heavy lifting off your shoulders during this busy time.
If you’re building from the ground up, we can partner with you to draw up the best floor plan for your home needs. We’ll even guide you on the small and special details that you may have never considered. For instance, identifying the optimal placement of your outlets, picking the right cabinetry locations for your needs and so much more.
Beyond that, we can also assist with selecting the best furniture, hardware and decor pieces that align with your overall style vision you have for your new home.
You’re Not Moving or Renovating? We Have a Package For That!
While renovations and home builds are a great time to bring in an interior designer, we can also make an incredible impact on your home through our exclusive, process-driven Full-Service Design package.
From a furniture overhaul in your Living Room to a full update to your Dining Room and new molding and paint in the Foyer or a custom and personalized Home Office, we help ensure your project stays on track. We’ll also make sure that you pick the right materials for your lifestyle and needs.
A big mistake I see homeowners making is picking a finish that may be pretty but not practical, like marble countertops or linen fabrics that don’t perform. As I love to say, what’s pretty may not be the most practical. If it’s not practical, then there’s no point in putting your hard-earned money into something that simply won’t work for your lifestyle.
In our process, we take the time to get to know you – how you live and what you gravitate towards – so that we can design the best space for you.
When You Want to Make Every Penny Count
Designers are well-versed in understanding how scale works in a space, how floor plans should flow, and how to carefully curate each piece in a space so that everything feels right. We don’t piecemeal homes together. We intentionally set out to create incredible designs for our clients – it’s truly an art!
While there is no question that hiring an interior designer is a big investment, the value we bring to the table is worth its weight in gold. We come with a wealth of knowledge, expertise and immense experience that allow us to recognize potential errors early on.
Not only are we the key to ensuring the project that you’ve been dreaming of for months or years will ACTUALLY come to fruition, but our fee is often the “insurance” and peace-of-mind you need to ensure that you won’t make big and costly mistakes! Over the long run, our design services truly end up paying for themselves.
When You Don’t Have the Time to Sweat the Details
As experienced designers, we know your time is valuable. The hours needed to pull a home together can literally be and feel infinite, and that’s why hiring an expert is key. Let us utilize our super powers while you are out conducting yours!
Our job is to save you the hassle of wasting your weekends going furniture shopping for pieces that don’t actually fit in your home. It is our passion to design a space that allows your family to really LIVE in it – not tiptoe around it. It is our number one goal to see you thrive in your space while you live your best life.
We don’t simply “shop” and “decorate” for you – it’s so much more than that. Outsourcing and hiring a designer ensures that even the smallest of details are intentionally selected and purposeful. We save you time while investing your dollars in the best way possible so that you can enjoy your life at home.
The team here at SLB Interiors are experts in all things home design. We have the best resources, in-depth knowledge of various fabrics and materials, and detailed insights into the best colors that fit your home style. Whatever it is you’re envisioning, we’re capable of bringing it to life.
