Booking a 60 min in-home consultation is a great way to get professional design advice, and get to know the designers at TLB Interiors, and learn about our process. We will spend this quality time together with you walking through your home, offering advice on furniture layouts, paint colors, new window and door sizes and placement, and offer fresh ideas for your project. After our meeting, we can offer a Proposal for our design services if you wish to move forward. Local consultations start at $750.

Project Management
THE FULL-SERVICE DESIGN PROCESS
1. Project Intake
During the initial phase, we learn about you and your project. We have an onsite consultation to discuss your goals and objectives. We determine the scope of work, your style and discuss the budget.
2. Architectural Design Development
Here we establish detailed plans of each space. When remodeling or building, we will create architectural drawings, and start developing layouts and elevations for approval.
3. Interior Design Development
This is the meat and potatoes of the project! During this phase, the style and color scheme are established. We create digital design boards for each space for your review and approval. We select your finishes, fixtures, lighting, hardware, cabinetry, wall colors or covering, window treatments, fabrics, rugs, art, and accessories. We will have a design meeting to review all of the designs, materials, and selections together.
4. Project Administration
Throughout construction, we attend regular job site meetings to review design decisions, material installations, and construction schedules. We track progress and resolve issues that may arise during the build and ensure that finished work is crafted flawlessly.
5. Procurement
Procurement begins with purchase orders for each vendor. We review each order selection for accuracy, confirm prices, lead times, and shipping and delivery details. Orders are tracked weekly, and we coordinate delivery to the house in line with the project schedule.
6. Installation
Installation begins once construction is completed. During this phase, the furniture, art, and accessories are arranged, and all of the finishing touches are completed. Your project is complete.
