WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
WORKING WITH US

​

 

Step 2: 

Interior Design Proposal

Following our initial consultation, we will provide you with an:

​

• Estimated Budget of our Professional Design and Project Management Fee

• Detailed outline of your Scope of Work

• Samples of Deliverables (i.e. drawings, specification binder, etc.)

• Client References
   

After your review we will have a Zoom conference call to answer any questions you may have about the above. 

​

Depending on the size and complexity of your job, we will offer one of three ways to work with us -- flat fee, hourly, or if you have a smaller scope of work --by the half day or hourly consultation. These bite-size design packages, called Half-Day SOULutions and Instant Interior SOULutions, are listed on the Services page. 

Please keep in mind, when you're interviewing any designer, it is important to give careful consideration to their professional business practices and compatibility with you, in addition to their aesthetics, as it is a business relationship that can span months and even years depending on the size of your project.  

 

Hiring someone that is an astute listener and offers a collaborative process is key. 

​

Step 3: 
Letter of Agreement & Project Retainer

Upon approval of your project Scope of Work and our Design and Project Management Fee. 

 

You'll receive a Letter of Agreement with a request for a Project Retainer.  Our Letter of Agreement details the terms of conducting business with us.

The Project Retainer is your initial financial deposit which signals your intent to proceed with your project and to reserve your time with us.

 

Following receipt of your signed Letter of Agreement and Project Retainer, we are off to the races. We're usually so excited and full of creative ideas that we can’t wait to get started.

​

​

Step 4: 

Project Commencement

 

We have found the three most important components to a successful job are communication, trust and collaboration. It's that simple.  (Oh, and gooood coffee).

 

So during the months-long process of planning and implementing your project you can expect to receive weekly Friday Project Updates via email and when needed, conference calls or site visits, particularly during construction.

 

​

Step 5: 
Project Completion

Nothing makes us happier than to have our client  come home or back to their office on Installation Day and say "WOW! I can’t believe it’s the same space!” 

 

Yes, we live for the big reveal. And following, we do a complete walk through with you to celebrate the success of our collaboration, as well as create a punch list of any small remaining items to be addressed.

 

Upon completion of the punch list we have a wrap up meeting to receive your feedback, as well as give you care instructions for any special pieces you may have purchased so they maintain their beauty and functionality.
