Builders hand you a list of selections and a due date. We help you make every choice so the finishes, lighting and millwork add up to one house, then design the furnishings to match.

When
Before the builder's selection deadlines
Includes
Finishes, fixtures, lighting, millwork, paint and floor coverings
With
Your builder and architect
After
Furnishings, window treatments, art and styling

What we select

Flooring, tile, stone, cabinetry finishes, hardware, plumbing fixtures, lighting, paint colors and custom millwork. We also look at the plans for furniture early, so outlets, sconces and windows land where the furniture needs them.

  • Interior finish and material selections
  • Plumbing and lighting fixtures
  • Custom millwork and built-ins
  • Paint specifications
  • Furniture plans checked against the electrical plan

Builder homes and model homes

Debbi has worked on model home designs, and a client's condo in Millsboro, Delaware was selected for a Parade of Homes event. The builder now uses their house to show buyers what their homes can be.

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

Who orders what

Your build team orders the construction materials. We order the furnishings, window treatments and decor.

Debbi is a visionary.

We knew the style we wanted in our homes, and Debbi took our ideas and added to them, giving us a finished product that exceeded our expectations. Thanks to her work, our condo was selected to be in a Parade of Homes event and our house is now used by the builder to showcase the quality and potential beauty of their homes.

Questions

When should I bring you in on a new build?
As early as possible, ideally before the first selection meeting with your builder. Changes made on paper cost far less than changes made on site.
Do you work with any builder?
Yes. We collaborate with your builder and architect on the selections. We don't manage construction.
Can you design the furniture too?
Yes. Once the selections are done, we design the furnishings so the finished house reads as one.
