Have a question about using an Interior Designer?

Never worked with an Interior Designer before?

I welcome any questions you might have about what Style Precinct's Interior Design services can offer you. Here are some questions I am often asked.

FAQs

Do you work in a particular style?

I don't stick to one style but am versatile depending on the project from a nature-filled cafe look to elegant luxe residential dreamhome. I start with an Interior Design style concept that is inspired by the architecture, your lifestyle and how you like to live. I avoid following short term fads or fashions and always have an eye on a timeless result that will add value to your home or commercial project in the longer term. A favourite Interior Design style is a modern blend that makes you want to linger longer in a space and is uplifting. I believe interiors should contribute to your daily well being. Look through my projects page for examples of my work.

I don't know how much my budget should be?

For furnishing and decoration projects as part of our fee proposal I will suggest a budget range to achieve the result you are after. For kitchen and bathroom projects I can offer you a custom design with fixed design fees. I work with a ballpark budget range to design to and can offer construct/install through our network partners or you can engage your own builder. I suggest where the priorities are for key elements and where you should invest and where you can save.

Will you work with items I already have?

YES. If you have a treasured item or a family heirloom, that is important to you, I will design an interior concept that includes your pieces. Items that have precious memories and stories to them are important to our clients and to me as part of the narrative of the design.

Do all supplied and custom made products have warranties?

YES. All of our products and any items sourced with our suppliers have warranties. My supplier list is very selective to ensure proven quality and service.

Im not sure about the overall style I want. Can you help me?

YES. Many of our clients are very confused about where to start or if they are on the right track. Don't underestimate how difficult this can be. Some of our clients have started putting Pinterest boards or images together and my expert eye will hone in on getting the Interior style right. I discuss all your ideas and thoughts during our initial Interior Design consultation.

Im worried that the Interior Design fees will cost me too much.

The initial consult fee is a flat fee of $380 for 2 hours including travelling (in Melbourne metro areas). Then I provide you with a fixed fee proposal with package options based on the scope of works you need. This ensures that you know what your Interior design fee costs will be in advance. My services will save you time and money, avoid any costly mistakes that devalue your project and give you peace of mind during the construction knowing you are on the right track. The procurement program for furniture and accessories uses trade suppliers where products are sourced with discounts passed on to you. My aim is to add value to your project and deliver a beautiful outcome.
