Using the information we gather from the initial consultation, we will begin to develop your preliminary design. The preliminary design involves the development of draft schematics that showcase various design concepts. The preliminary design process enables us to work with you as we exchange ideas about your design vision. As a designer with over 30 years’ experience in the interior design and remodeling industry, I have developed relationships with a wide array of product lines and have access to incredible design resources. I will draw on these resources and product lines in developing your preliminary design. Depending on the nature of your interior design project, the preliminary design schematics involve the following considerations:
- The selection of your finishes;
- The selection of your furniture;
- The layout of your furniture;
- The design of your cabinetry;
- Selection of your window treatments;
- Selection of your art and accessories;
- Selection of your materials (carpet, hardwood floor, ceramic tile, fabric);
- Selection of your colors
- Selection of your lighting
This step in our process will prepare us for developing your final design.
