Interior Design Consultations
Interior Design Consultations are the starting point of
every design journey with Decorium Inspiration Design. These consultations are
engaging and interactive one-hour sessions, available either on-site or
virtually, where we discuss your top design challenges, delve into your project
needs and desired outcomes, and get to know each other better.
By gathering essential information before the session, we
ensure that we can jump right in and make the most of our time together,
offering you tailored suggestions and expert advice.
We will come prepared with a selection of samples that
reflect your personal tastes to help bring our ideas to life. We’ll also
highlight the changes that could make the most significant impact and might
even make some adjustments on the spot, often prompting reactions like, “Wow, I
never would have thought of that!”

“Decorium’s Interior Design Consultation was well worth the time and money and hugely valuable in helping us sort out the set up for our newly purchased home. She helped us to consider ideas we never would have come up with on our own.”
What to expect from an Interior Design Consultation
You’ll gain more clarity on the style of your home and confidence in the next steps of your design project.
Together, we’ll determine the best path forward to help you complete your project. Depending on the project's scope and your budget, this might mean opting for a "Designer for a Day" package or our Full-Service Interior Design.
If you just need some guidance or assistance with a specific design decision, don't worry—Interior Design Consultations can also be booked as a standalone service. You'll receive a designer’s perspective and professional advice to help you finish your space on your own.

How to Prepare for Your Interior Design Consultation
1. Fill out any questionnaires provided to help the designer understand your style, needs, and preferences.
2. Collect images, magazine clippings, or Pinterest boards that reflect your style and the look you want to achieve. This will help communicate your vision during the consultation.
3. Identify Your Priorities. Make a list of the areas you want to focus on and any specific design challenges or goals you have for your space.
4. Have a clear idea of your budget for the project to help guide the consultation and recommendations.
5. If the consultation is virtual, take clear photos of the spaces you want to discuss. Also, measure your rooms and any key pieces of furniture to provide accurate dimensions.
6. Write down any questions or concerns you have about your space, design ideas, or the consultation process. This ensures you cover everything during your session.
7. Come with an open mind and be ready to explore new possibilities and creative solutions that you might not have considered.
8. If the consultation is in person, make sure the space is tidy so the designer can better assess the area and make accurate suggestions.
By following these steps, you'll be well-prepared to make the most of your interior design consultation!
