The Consultation

When you contact us, an early part of the process will involve scheduling a consultation where we discuss your plans and the design ideas you have.

We offer two kinds of consultations: In-person and Virtual.

  • We either visit your location or you schedule a visit to our Manhattan or Fort Lauderdale office.

  • You send us photos and measurements of your space and / or, using videocam technology such as Skype or over the phone, we discuss your project.

    All consultations have a flat rate of $250 per session or visit.

    For in-person consultations with clients located outside of the NYC metro area, an additional travel fee (variable, based on your actual physical location) will also be charged.

    • We get to know you, your tastes, goals and use cases for the space you want to design.

    • We clarify your budget for the project.

    • If you have any design ideas or inspiration, make note of them, so we can go over them during the consultation.

    • For virtual consultations, take clear photos of your space, so we can clearly visualize the work area.

Establishing the Brief

After the consultation stage we will establish the brief.

This brief outlines the goals for the project, the scope of work, the budget and the deliverables.

    • We will define the brief, as we understand it, in a project proposal.

    • The proposal will contain the scope of work, the deliverables on our end and yours, and present a realistic budget that will be required to successfully execute the project.

Contract signing &
Project kick-off

After you receive our proposal, if you’re in agreement with our recommendations and the terms of the proposal, then we move on to getting started with the actual work for your project.

    • You sign the design contract contained within the proposal, which constitutes the work order to begin the project.

    • You make a requisite deposit of a percentage of the project design fee.
