How to Prepare for Your Design Consultation
Wish List
Write down a list to help your interior designer understand your needs and wants, including non-negotiables, such as the space required for seating and the type of ambience you want the space to have.
Inspiration Photos
Gathering magazine photos and Pinterest boards of your preferred design style is a great way to show the designer examples of how you’d love the space to look, feel, and function.
Pictures of the Space
Having a good selection of photos of your space, including wide and close-up shots with existing furnishings, will help your designer coordinate colors, fabrics, and finishes. Don’t forget to include key dynamics, such as fireplaces, to provide a more accurate overview.
Basic Measurements
A sketch of the room layout from above, including measurements and entrances, will help the designer get a bird’s eye view of the space, with a clear understanding of any space limitations.
Communication is Key
Always communicate your ideas so your interior designer can guide you through the process of creating a space that you love and reflects who you are. The more you communicate and give feedback, the easier it is for the designer to create your ideal space.
