Why work with an interior designer like Kande on your new home build or remodel project?
The answer is similar to why you would hire an architect to design the structure, and a contractor to build it – to get the best results.
Effective, cohesive and beautiful interiors are the result of thorough and thoughtful design, interior design. Before making singular purchases, consider the complete design scheme with all surfaces, materials and finishes in mind.
Have a detailed plan noting the items included in the home or room before construction begins. Give yourself time to consider your best options and the overall estimated cost of your design plan. Then procure materials with the confidence that it will work great with the other elements in each space.
An interior designer (me!) plans, designs and furnishes the interior space of buildings and rooms. As your interior designer I will:
- Analyze your needs and understand your goals and requirements.
- Develop design concepts that are functional and aesthetic.
- Prepare plans, 2D and 3D for understanding the scheme before moving ahead.
- Source and select fixed finishes, colors, decorative fixtures, fabrics, fittings, furniture and decor.
- Collaborate with other professionals including architects, engineers, and mechanical contractors.
- Review, evaluate and implement designs through completion.
- Coordinate and manage interior bids, contracts and act as manager.
To the table I bring:
- Visual awareness and understanding of space and proportion
- Technical skills for reading, editing and drawing plans
- Knowledge of standards and practices
- Creative problem solving
- Specialization in Steamboat vacation homes, and luxury bathrooms
I offer phone consultations, virtual meetings and in-person on site visits. I work on properties located here in the ‘Boat and across the continental United States.
I value your interest and time in learning more about my interior design services.
Thank you,
Kande
