Hourly Consultation FAQ
1. What can we cover in an hourly consultation?
These sessions are ideal for targeted design support—think space planning, color consultation, furniture layout, sourcing advice, or simply helping you make confident decisions on lingering design questions. We tailor each session to your specific needs.
2. How do I prepare for the session?
To make the most of our time, we recommend gathering measurements, photos, inspiration images, and any existing plans or ideas in advance. Don’t worry if you’re not fully organized—we’ll guide you through what’s needed.
3. How do I know how many hours to book?
It depends on the scope of your questions. A single hour is often plenty for targeted feedback on layouts, color palettes, or sourcing. If you’re looking for broader support—like tackling multiple rooms or creating a full design direction—we may recommend booking a few hours up front or working together over a series of sessions. We're happy to advise based on your project once we learn a bit more.
4. What’s the typical budget for clients using this service?
There’s no set budget required, but clients who benefit most from hourly consultations usually have a reasonable understanding of what furnishings and materials cost. A little clarity and flexibility go a long way in making the most of our time together.
5. Can I follow up with more questions later?
Absolutely. You’re welcome to book additional hours as your project evolves—whether it’s to revisit a plan, review new options, or get feedback on your progress. Our goal is to support you when and where it’s most helpful.
