Full service means you make the decisions and we handle the rest. It works for one room, several rooms or a whole house, and it is how most of our in-person projects run.

What we handle

The floor plan and furniture layout. Paint colors, wallpaper and fabrics. Furniture, lighting, rugs and window treatments, many of them custom. Art and accessories. Then the part most people don't want to do: ordering, tracking, receiving, inspecting and storing everything until the room is ready, then scheduling the painters, paperhangers and installers.

  • Space planning and measured CAD floor plans
  • Custom window treatments, bedding and upholstery
  • Custom furniture and millwork designs
  • Lighting plans and elevation drawings
  • Art consulting and placement
  • White glove installation and styling

Building around what you own

We rarely start from an empty room, and we don't want to. The furniture you inherited, the art you collected on a trip, the china you never use because it has no place to live: those are the pieces that make a room yours. We work out what stays, what gets reupholstered or reframed and what the room still needs.

Talk it through with us. A complimentary discovery call is the first step.

Purchasing through us

On full-service projects, furnishings are ordered through us. Over more than 15 years we have built relationships with vendors and workrooms for quality, custom work and service, and managing the orders ourselves is how the room arrives right, on schedule and without you chasing deliveries.

If you live somewhere else part of the year

Many of our clients live in another home while the work is underway. You approve the design, and we manage the ordering and installation with updates along the way. See second home design.

Debbi immediately treated me like a partner.

From our first consultation, she read my aesthetic, then offered bold ideas that took my initial design to a new level. With her help, we've transformed my home into an elegant, comfortable, and functional space that is truly one-of-a-kind. I couldn't be happier!

Questions

How many rooms do I need for full service?
One is fine. Full service describes how much of the work we handle, not how big the project is.
Can I keep some of my furniture?
Yes, and we usually prefer it. We decide together what stays, what gets reupholstered or refinished and what the room still needs.
How involved do I need to be?
You make the decisions at the design presentation and approve the selections. After that, we handle ordering, delivery and installation. You can be as close to the day to day as you like.
Do you work with my contractor?
Yes. If the project includes painting, wallpaper, millwork or a remodel, we coordinate the selections and drawings with your contractor, or recommend trades we trust.
