Why Should You Hire an Interior Designer?

We get a lot of questions about the benefits of hiring an interior designer. With the do-it-yourself craze, countless Pinterest-inspired ideas, and home décor shows on HGTV, there are a lot of resources out there that can give you some good design advice. However, with the numerous details that go into every design process, it can be easy to become overwhelmed. An educated designer can help you sort through the details and work with you to find the perfect solution to your design needs. 

Time & Money

One main reason to hire a designer is to save yourself both time and money. The design process can be long and even confusing. A designer is taught to pay attention to things such as proportion, lighting, and the different types of products to use, all of which can easily be overlooked if you are not careful. Rather than making a big and expensive mistake like buying furniture that doesn't fit the scale of your room, or buying several gallons of paint only to realize that the color looks completely different when it's in your room, look into hiring a designer. We are trained to anticipate these concerns before they happen, making the entire process smoother and stress-free. 

Functionality

Designers aren't there just to make your home look "pretty". We help with the overall spacing and function of a room. Have you ever seen a room that looks pulled together but just feels off? Chances are the room isn't functional. Maybe the furniture isn't the right size or the layout disturbs the flow of the room. Either way, having a "pretty" room doesn't mean it's a well-designed room. 

Creativity

Interior designers tend to be creative by nature. If your home has an awkward area or a confusing floor plan, a designer can show you creative options on how to tackle your space. Also, interior designers can help you pick out fabrics for your upholstery pieces, design custom window treatments and floral arrangements, and create decorative accents throughout your home.
