We are design experts with a respected network of suppliers and partners. We love giving advice and partnering with you on amazing window coverings, but we’re also happy to work with your interior designer of choice. Here are some tips to help you find one.
1. Find your style
Clearly understanding your preferences is paramount. Develop a vision board, either physical or digital, with images that resonate with your aesthetic sensibilities. Embrace the world of Pinterest.
This will become a valuable reference point during consultations; it will help you describe what you like and what you don’t, and it will help potential designers understand your taste.
2. Shortlist your designers
Get Googling interior designers, ask your friends and family, and see who’s been featured in your favourite publications.
Once you have your shortlist, have a read through any testimonials on their website, check out their Instagram and find out if they’ve worked with homes like yours, or in your area, before.
3. Check out their suppliers
An interior designer’s network of suppliers is a key indicator of the quality and uniqueness of the materials and furnishings that will be incorporated into your space.
Inquire about the designer’s relationships with suppliers and whether they have access to exclusive pieces or materials or a good variety of materials and styles.
4. Book an initial consultation
Once you have narrowed down potential designers, reach out and schedule an initial consultation. Many designers offer free consultations, providing an opportunity to discuss your project, timeline and budget, and find out if you’re both a good fit.
A skilled designer will provide a realistic timeline for project completion and offer transparency regarding costs. They will actively listen to your ideas while offering valuable insights.
Collaboration is a two-way street. A good designer will seamlessly blend your vision with their expertise – and together, you’ll create something amazing for your space.
