"Carolyn is a gifted designer and manager. She took charge of our project from measuring, blueprints, selection of materials, appliances, permitting. She managed her expert contractors through the construction and installation processes. Our kitchen, living room and balcony are designed with indoor/outdoor living and greatly enhanced views, including the use of LaCantina Door Panels and custom windows. We are absolutely impressed and overjoyed with the outcome. Steve & Jim Laguna Beach"

"I interviewed several designers to transform my swimming pool and drab backyard into something really special. Most offered basic sketches, but none hit the mark—until I met Jeff Schnurr of Landscape Design Magic, a former Disney designer. Jeff envisioned a tropical paradise and brought it to life with stunning artist renderings featuring waterfalls, lush plants, and spectacular lighting. Today, my 'Hawaiian Village Resort' resembles Disneyland’s Jungle Cruise, complete with a Mayan Head waterfall and another waterfall that allows you to sit behind a cascading sheet of water that falls over in front of you and into the swimming pool below. Jeff is uniquely talented, imaginative, and cost-conscious. If you're looking for a designer that fuses functionality with the "Wow factor," Jeff is the man who can create it for you. I highly recommend him."

Start by defining your goals and budget. Collect photos of rooms you love, jot down must-have features, and list what isn’t working in your current space. Share these details—and your target budget—during the first meeting. The clearer you are, the quicker a designer can translate your vision into a workable plan and keep costs in check.
Yes, working with an interior designer can help you save money. Designers prevent costly missteps, secure trade discounts on furniture and finishes, and coordinate the project so you don’t pay twice for the same work. Their upfront fee often pays for itself in avoided change orders, tighter timelines, and materials purchased at below-retail pricing.
A full interior design project wraps up in two to three months, on average, while a decorating job takes four to eight weeks. Timelines stretch if you add structural changes, custom millwork, or specialty materials, and unexpected shipping or permit delays can tack on extra days. Talk with your designer about project milestones and build in a little wiggle room.
Interview at least three pros whose portfolios match your style. Review their credentials and ask for references. During a face-to-face or virtual meeting, discuss your goals, budget, and timeline, and make sure their communication style and fee structure feel comfortable. The right designer combines technical know-how with a creative approach that clicks with you.
