When you contact us, an early part of the process will involve scheduling a consultation where we discuss your plans and the design ideas you have.
We offer two kinds of consultations: In-person and Virtual.
IN-PERSON CONSULTATIONS
We either visit your location or you schedule a visit to our Omaha office.
VIRTUAL CONSULTATIONS
You send us photos and measurements of your space and / or, using facetime or Zoom or over the phone, we discuss your project.
All consultations have a flat rate of $200 per session or visit.
For in-person consultations with clients located outside of the Omaha area, an additional travel fee (variable, based on your actual physical location) will also be charged.
WHAT HAPPENS AT THIS STAGE?
We get to know you, your tastes, goals and use cases for the space you want to design.
We clarify your budget for the project.
WHAT CAN I DO TO PREPARE?
If you have any design ideas or inspiration, make note of them, so we can go over them during the consultation.
For virtual consultations, take clear photos of your space, so we can clearly visualize the work area.
After the consultation stage we will establish the Scope of Work or what you, the owner would like the project to consist of.
The Scope of Work outlines the goals for the project, budget and the deliverables.
What happens at this stage?
- We will define the Scope of Work, as we understand it, in a project proposal.
- The proposal will contain the scope of work, the deliverables on our end and yours.
- For Residential projects a realistic budget will be discussed that will be required to successfully execute the project (Residential only, commercial projects will be estimated by a General Contractor).
After you receive our proposal, if you’re in agreement with our recommendations and the terms of the proposal, then we move on to getting started with the actual work for your project.
What happens at this stage?
- You sign the design contract contained within the proposal, which constitutes the work order to begin the project.
- You make the requested deposit as noted on the design contract.
At this stage our team of designers, contractors, electricians, carpenters and other artisans get to work on your project.
What happens at this stage?
- Site visits (number as requested by owner).
- Frequent project reports and updates.
- Presentation of floor plans, lighting and electrical/construction plans, where applicable.
- Make all spaces available to our design team so they can work unimpeded.
- Sit back and relax while we work to get you the interior you have envisioned.
