Benefits of Working With an Interior Designer

Ever wondered about working with an interior designer, but just not sure it is right for you?

All this extra time spent at home recently has many people thinking more about tackling those renovations or decorating projects that they have long been dreaming of.  But if, like many of my clients, you don’t have the time (or the desire!) to manage your own renovation or decorating project, then hiring an interior designer just might be the way to go.

 

Working with an interior designer may not be for everyone, but one thing is for sure, no matter how big or small your brief and budget, an interior designer can ensure your renovation or decorating project runs smoother, is less time-consuming and is more enjoyable for you.

 

Here are 4 key benefits of working with an interior designer:

 

1/  We get the job done

One of the key benefits of hiring a professional interior designer is that we will ensure the project you’ve been dreaming of for so long will be completed in full, including all those finishing touches and any little issues that inevitably arise along the way. With access to great trade partners we have teams of experts, trades and suppliers available to ensure the successful delivery of your project.

 

2/  We manage the detail (yep, the boring stuff!)

Contrary to what many people think, the life of an interior designer is not all bells and whistles.  Don’t get me wrong we love what we do, but there is also a lot of tedious, unglamorous detail required to ensure a project is completed successfully.  A full-service interior designer will manage all those time-consuming details of your project, from engaging and managing trades, to purchasing items on your behalf, to organising deliveries and co-ordinating installation and styling of your home.  We also help to simplify the process for you, so you don’t get overwhelmed by the myriad of options available and decisions to make (like which white paint colour is best for your walls, or the best tile layout for your bathroom!)

 

3/  We save you time and money

Designers are trained to bring a vision to life, and given our experience and skills, we are able to do this more efficiently than you could on your own.  Our access to trade-exclusive partners also means we have the resources needed at our fingertips to ensure your project will be completed to a high quality, quicker and more cost-effectively, ultimately saving you time and money.

 

4/  We create magic!

Because we live and breathe design we are constantly being exposed to new products and trends, enabling us to help you create a highly personalised solution that you wouldn’t be able to achieve on your own.  We’ll help push you out of your comfort zone and give you the confidence to try some things that you might otherwise not have tried, ensuring that your home is highly liveable, reflects your personal style and is truly unique.

 

Of course, there are many more benefits to working with a professional interior designer.  If you are interested to learn more about how an interior designer can help you, then I’d love to chat with you.
