What to Ask Before Hiring An Interior Designer

When working with an interior designer, the success of the design hinges on the strength of the collaboration between designer and client. You need to be able to communicate well with each other and have goals that are aligned through each step of the process.

What goes into selecting materials for a project? A lot more than choosing what looks pretty.

Every design starts with a few key pieces of information: the budget, how you want the room to make you feel, and inspiration images that help translate th
