"I am so pleased with Erikas results. I had tired white wire shelving in my closet when we purchased our home, and I was looking for a new custom setup. She asked tons of questions, helped me focus on what and how items should be stored, and walked me though beautiful closet systems. Unfortunately, custom is simply out of my budget. But she came up with a plan that keeps my closet easy to maintain, and is very pretty! She really took the time to address my storage needs and now everything fits easily. She installed everything herself. The wire shelving is gone and I am proud to show it off. I plan to work with her again."

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.
