1. Save you money
It may sound counterintuitive, but hiring a designer can actually save you money!
The majority of people don’t hire interior designers in the first instance, they attempt their home project by themselves, often making costly mistakes with the wrong choice of furniture, paint colours, fabric choices etc., ultimately leading to disappointment.
An interior designer will ensure that every element of the room design has been considered, presented, discussed and agreed up front ahead of any works commencing, thus avoiding those easy to make but often costly mistakes when tackling a project on your own.
In fact, the fee for using an interior designer can often be repaid many times over with savings they can make on a project. With access to a wide source of trade only suppliers, the potential to source the perfect items for your home, can often result in more savings than the cost of the interior design fee itself.
From a budget perspective, it’s also easy to overlook small details, but an experienced interior designer will know exactly what to include before the final budget is agreed, and no matter how large or small your budget is, an interior designer will help ensure you get the best value out of what you spend.
2. Save you time
Hiring a professional interior designer can save you time on your design project.
Renovating even a single space in your home can be a hugely time consuming process, so many people put off their project as the thought of adding yet another thing to manage alongside work & family commitments is simply too much to cope with
As an interior designer, my job is to ensure that you can achieve the transformation you want whilst minimising the amount of time you have to be personally involved. From creating the initial vision through to the final design, we can also to manage contractors, installation & even the final styling of the room.
In simple terms our services are structured in such a way that no matter how much or how little time you want to be involved, we have a solution.
3. Take the stress away
Hiring a professional interior designer can make the design process stress-free and enjoyable.
We understand that even the thought of embarking on a new design project can be overwhelming, especially if you lack knowledge & experience in interior design.
Hiring an interior designer doesn’t mean you loose control, in fact one of the best bits of my job is working with clients who have lots of thoughts and ideas about what they would like to achieve, just without the stress of having to make decisions on their own without guidance.
It’s our role to handle all the elements that you would find stressful on your own, that’s why our design packages are fully flexible to ensure that you are able to enjoy the transformation journey.
4. Add value to your home
A well-designed interior can increase the market appeal, resale or rental value of your property.
Whilst not the primary consideration for all clients, If you are thinking of selling your property in the future, it pays to have a well-designed home. A good interior designer will help boost a home’s appeal to potential buyers, help it stand out from the competition & achieve a premium price.
For clients with holiday homes in The Cotswolds which they also rent out, having the right interiors can also significantly increase appeal, bookings & the financial return of the property.
5. Create a space that reflects your style & personality
I’m a big believer that your home should reflect your own style & personality.
There’s nothing worse than entering a home and having no sense of the people who live there. So whilst a house can be tastefully decorated and look beautiful, without the personality of the owners incorporated into the design, they can often feel generic & soulless.
A home that truly reflects the personality of the owners will always feel more welcoming & authentic, that’s why one of the most important parts of our design process is getting to know & understand our clients well, working closely together to ensure that the ultimate design and everything included in the final design feels like’ home’.
6. Make the best use of what you already have
Most of our clients have existing pieces of furniture, antiques, paintings or possessions that they have collected over the years and want to keep. It’s these very items that can help make a newly refreshed space feel immediately like home.
Our job is to help curate the pieces that would best suit the new space, consider the best placement in terms of the room layout, and to also look at ways in which we could bring new life to an old piece, perhaps through updating the upholstery on a family heirloom.
7. Help you get the fundamentals right
The most important element of constructing any property, is getting the foundations right.
Interior design is exactly the same, long before we start on the aesthetics of a space, we focus on getting the fundamentals of a successful scheme right.
Effective space planning is essential. An interior designer will have a clear understanding of how spatial relationships can optimise a space including the scale and placement of furniture.
Lighting & electrical plans are also key components to a successful space, and our job is to review and determine the best options for our clients to create not only a beautiful but importantly a functional space.
