Thinking about hiring an interior designer? Here’s what you need to know…
Whether you’re refreshing a single room or planning a full home transformation, working with an interior designer brings clarity, creativity, and cohesion to your project. At NUVO DESIGN STUDIO, we believe great design begins with understanding your lifestyle—and ends with a space that feels unmistakably yours.
Why Work with an Interior Designer?
1. Professional Insight
Designing a home involves more than choosing paint colours or furniture. Our trained eye and years of experience ensure your space is not only beautiful but also functional and cohesive. We guide you through every decision—big and small—so the end result feels seamless.
2. Save Time & Reduce Stress
From managing timelines to coordinating trades and sourcing finishes, there are countless details involved in bringing a space together. We take care of the behind-the-scenes work so you can focus on the exciting parts—without feeling overwhelmed.
3. Access to Exclusive Resources
Our relationships with trusted vendors and skilled artisans give you access to custom furnishings, high-quality materials, and one-of-a-kind pieces not available in retail stores. The result? A polished, elevated space that feels truly bespoke.
4. Ongoing Industry Knowledge
We attend industry events, trade shows, and workshops weekly—keeping us ahead of the curve and connected to the latest innovations, materials, and trends. This also gives us early access to new products, often before they even reach the market.
5. Personalized, Lifestyle-Centered Design
Every project begins with you. We tailor each design to reflect your tastes, daily habits, and goals for the space—ensuring the final result feels like home.
What to Expect When You Work with NUVO DESIGN STUDIO
Your journey begins with a discovery call—offered in person or virtually. Here’s what our collaborative process looks like:
- Discovery Call
A free 15-minute phone call to learn about your style, needs, and vision. We may send you a brief questionnaire afterward to gather more project-specific information, which helps us make the most of our time together in the next step. - In-Home Space Evaluation
We visit your space to take detailed measurements, assess existing conditions, and review your wish list. This hands-on evaluation ensures that every design decision is grounded in your real-life needs. - Budget Discussion
We help you define a comfortable investment range and show you how to get the most out of it—without unexpected surprises. - Written Proposal
Based on everything we’ve learned, we prepare a detailed proposal outlining the scope of work, estimated timeline, and the design fee associated with your project. This proposal gives you a clear understanding of what to expect moving forward. - Presentation Day
We present your design concept along with 3D renderings, floor plans, and material samples to help you visualize the space. You’ll also receive a clearly outlined budget—including furnishings, finishes, and installation—down to the last nail. - Implementation Phase
Whether you’re redecorating a single room or undergoing a full renovation, we oversee each detail through our clearly defined 15-step process. From procurement to installation, we’re with you every step of the way.
How to Prepare for Your Design Project
Want to make the most of your interior design experience? Here are a few tips to get started:
- Find Your Inspiration
Gather images, colours, and styles you love from Pinterest, Instagram, or your favourite magazines. Creating a folder or mood board helps us understand your vision right from the start. - Define Your Investment
Being upfront about your budget allows us to curate the best options for your needs—maximizing your results while avoiding costly surprises. - Stay Open, Engaged & Decisive
Interior design is a collaborative process, and timely feedback helps keep your project on track. Quick decision-making allows us to stay within budget, meet deadlines, and ensure a smooth experience from start to finish.
Working with an interior designer isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about creating a home that works for you. At NUVO DESIGN STUDIO, we’re passionate about designing interiors that are as functional as they are beautiful, always grounded in your personal story.
From the initial consultation to the final install, our process is designed to be clear, collaborative, and enjoyable—so you can love where you live, every day.
