3 Reasons Why You Shouldn't Hire an Interior Designer...yet

Are you hesitant about taking the leap and hiring a design partner to turn your daydreams into reality? Let us put your mind at ease. Our expertise extends beyond just aesthetic direction to include space planning, floor plans, and transforming your space into a powerful marketing tool. Here are some reasons you should wait to reach out to an interior designer:

1. You are unsure what your all-in investment could be. It's understandable to feel uncertain about the all-in investment for your space. You may not have a clear idea of what certain items cost, and that's perfectly fine. However, it's important not to be completely in the dark about how much money you may need, whether it's cash, a loan, or investment from a partner. It's similar to the difference in quality between a $10 shirt and a $100 shirt – having a loose range can provide helpful guidance for your designer to determine build-out costs. By having a general idea of your budget, your designer can work within those parameters to create a beautiful and functional space that meets your needs.

2. Your timeline isn't flexible. We understand that your timeline for opening your space may be tight. If you're hoping to open in just a few weeks, we want to be transparent and let you know that we take our commitment to quality seriously. To ensure that we can deliver our best work, we would need an ample amount of time to get to know you, your brand, and how your new space can contribute to your bottom line. This allows us the time to thoroughly explore and understand the nuances of your project, so we can design a space that is truly unique to your brand.

3. You're not 100% sure what you'd like to do. It's completely understandable if you're not yet certain about the direction you'd like to take for your space. Rest assured that we are here to help you create concepts and bring your vision to life. However, if you're uncertain about the type of space you want, such as a bar, restaurant, hotel, or retail spot, it may be best to have a rough idea of the type of project you'd like before we begin the design process. This helps us to tailor our concepts and designs to best fit your goals and vision. We pride ourselves on providing personalized design services, and having a better understanding of your goals and preferences allows us to create a more unique and impactful space that resonates with your target audience.

By gaining a better understanding of these elements, we can design a space that is customized to the needs and preferences of you and your guests. Do you feel like you have a good handle on these already?
