FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Initial discovery consultations are free. You can book one on my website! From consult-only services to full-service interior design, Gwen offers different packages to accommodate different needs. Depending on your project and how much help you want, design packages start at $350 for a color consult, and up to $2500 for full-service (1-2 rooms). A written proposal is always submitted for approval before work begins. To request more information on our design packages, please email Gwen.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
The first step is to book a free discovery call with Gwen. If you both agree that it's a good fit, she'll proceed with arranging an in-person design consult in your space. You will complete a design questionnaire to help guide her in creating a tailored design plan. A written proposal will be sent to you for approval, a 50% deposit is required to start. (Please contact Gwen for pricing information.) Gwen will arrange to meet with you to review all her suggestions and plans. Two rounds of edits can be made. After final payment is remitted, all floor plans, renderings, and product specs & links will be provided to you in PDF and printed format. You will own all rights to the design plans. (This will really come in handy if you're shopping for a builder or contractor!) You may also opt for assistance with shopping, selecting materials, and final furniture placement and accessorizing of your room. Gwen will guide you through the entire process of pulling your space together - you'll be thrilled with the results!
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Gwen has an interior design certification and over 15 years of design experience.
