About our Design Process

Whether we are installing a Home staging project or tackling a luxury full service Design…

We like to follow a system of checks and balances to ensure each client has a stress free experience. You can learn more about our 10 Step Luxury Design Process below:

1. After having your “initial consultation” with us, you can purchase and begin the Luxury Full Service Design Process. We will schedule an appointment with you to review the Design Proposal, Project Road-map and Letter of Agreement. When all parties have reviewed and agreed to the design package and letter of agreement, we’ll sign and collect 100% of design fees to begin the customized design plan. m

2. We will measure, collaborate with tradespeople required for your project and begin the creative process to build a comprehensive Design Plan to furnish, style and construct your new space. The design plan will be complete with investment figures (total budget) and renderings so you can look at the space in a complete and holistic way from the start.

3. After about 4-6 weeks of diligent work on your Design Plan, we will present our full vision for your space for approval. Many elements will be actual, purchasable items, however some design elements, such as styling, may be conceptual. If need be, we will make one to two revisions or modifications so that all parties are happy and ready to move to the next phase.

4. After the Design Plan has been signed and approved; We will finalize all selections and collect payment for all products and materials so that we can begin. Welcomed Interiors will manage and order all products, material, furnishings and finishes for the project on your behalf throughout the entire project.

5. We will create a project schedule and coordinate all tradespeople required for the job and begin work. We will provide you the best timeline we possibly can so that you can plan around the work we are doing in your home. We will also track and coordinate all freight, shipments and deliveries, holding and storing all items until the installation phase. If items arrive broken or incorrect, we will handle everything and make it right.

6. Until now, the style of the space has been conceptual in nature. Welcomed Interior’s styling is one of our biggest strengths and is the thing that makes our looks cozy and complete. Although we like to keep this element somewhat a surprise for reveal day, our team will meet with you to discuss our plan and vision for the styling elements, tones, textures within the space for approval.

7. As we approach the end of the project, we will begin to install the finishing touches and accessories in the space(s). We will begin preparations for Reveal Day on our end and provide you with an install date. We Ask that you plan to do something fun while we install your space, so that we can have the place to ourselves and give you that “HGTV reveal” moment!

8. A huge amount of planning goes into prep for the final install day; We ask that you not be home during this process as it can be pretty hectic. We will be delivering furnishings and installing every single detail and accessory that accompanies your design plan so that when you come home, your space is entirely complete. You will have 5 days to let us know about any styling elements you do not wish to keep, but as a warning, you may fall in love with everything we place!

9. Usually, within the first 5 days of the installation, we’ll bring in our photography team, designers and tradespeople who were involved in the project so they can see the complete space, shoot areas they’d like to capture their hard work on camera for their portfolios. Often times, we’ll share and tour the space on social media on this day as well.

10. Usually during that portfolio day, we will do a final walk-through of the project. We’ll ask that you keep track of any punch list items (repairs or concerns) so that we can take care of them during our final walk through. Any remaining payment is due upon completion of the final walk-through with our team. We love coming back upon completion of the project to see our clients happy the transformation provided by Welcomed Interiors.

Let us handle everything about your project from start to finish. Designing a space all the way through completion is what we do best!
