"Zach did plans for 2 homes for me and he did a wonderful job. One was a complete tear down and rebuild. He was meticulous with details and has true design talent. I would hire him again in a minute."

"We got AFM from Angie's list and are very happy that we found him. Anthony was professional and obviously knowledgeable. He assessed the problem and made very reasonable recommendations for a reasonable price. If we need an engineer or house inspector again, he will be our first call."

"Shaw's House was the absolute correct choice. As you can see from the photos, I had an odd ask- building a very slim upright coat rack in a tight space. The product was even better than I'd envisioned- the idea for a modular pegboard was all Mr. Shaw. They were kind, responsive, worked quickly, and most importantly, built an incredible piece of hardware that looks great and works perfectly in our apartment. Could not recommend more Shaw's House more highly. A++."

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.
