Designer For A Day
Designer For A Day
Looking for help to complete those partially finished design projects? Or do you have loads of design ideas to sort through but don’t know where to start? Our Designer For A Day might be just what you need.
Good for:
Design advice specific to a room/design issue
Brainstorming
Editing and sorting through your design ideas
Selecting two to three accent pieces of furniture
Accessories shopping and styling
After purchasing the package:
Start by filling out the questionnaire
Schedule your initial in-home visit so we can discuss your project, take measurements, review colors we are working with, etc…
We’ll spend some time shopping for the items we need
Depending on the nature of the project, we’ll either bring the items to you and style your space (accessories shopping), or we’ll send you our presentation via email, with purchase links on everything so you can execute your project on your own time schedule.
Please fill out this questionnaire ONLY if you are purchasing the Designer For A Day package. We look forward to working with you!
Please Note - you are hiring us for approx 12 hours of work, but the project will not be executed in a single day (it takes time to shop for the perfect pieces). Lead time from the day of our first meeting may be a week or two, depending on the nature of the project.

Furniture Floor Plan
A great design starts with a well thought out floor plan. We’ll lay out those hard to furnish spaces so rest assured, the furniture pieces you purchase will fit prefectly in your home.
A great design starts with a great furniture plan. You may have found yourself puzzled on how to best utilize a space with an awkward footprint, or perhaps are unsure what size sofa to purchase.

15 minute phone consultation to discuss your project
1 furniture floor plan with ideal furniture dimensions
Rug location and size
Suggested locations of accessories, such as plants, lamps and artwork
1 revision is included
What we will need from you:

Mood Board
Setting the tone for the overall aesthetic of your home. Think of it as your style guide when shopping for furniture, so the pieces you find will look great in your home!
If you are armed with a floor plan but not sure what the furniture should look like, we can set the scene for your new space by creating a Mood Board. While the Furniture Layout will show you the items that you will need to purchase, the Mood Board will serve as a style guide for what these items should look like.
What you will get:
A Mood Board in PDF format with all of the items shown on your Furniture Layout including rugs, side tables, lamps, window treatment style direction etc… The Mood Board will convey the general color palette for the room.
1 revision is included
Please Note:
This session is an add-on to our Furniture Layout. Why? Because we’d like to be as specific as possible with the items we are selecting. If your living room has a corner sectional plus a large scaled side chair and ottoman, versus two sofas facing each other, it makes ALL the difference to the furniture items that we select.
Window Treatment Consultation
In Chicago and need help with the finishing touches, like window treatments? Our design consultant will come to your home to design the perfect window treatments for you.
If you live in the Chicago area and would prefer to have one of our designers come to your home, we offer in-home fee-based window treatment consultations.
To make the most of our meeting, we encourage you to come to the showroom first to meet with our window treatment designer (please make an appointment to make sure someone is available to work with you). During this first meeting, you will be shown physical samples of our window treatment styles and fabric options. Our designer will bring these samples to your home along with any other samples they think may work well and evaluate them in your space.
What we’ll need from you:
Email us pictures of the windows + some overall room shots (so we can see what we're working with)
Any inspirational images of styles you love (feel free to share your Pinterest or Houzz board with us, or email us pictures).
Purchase the consultation and we’ll schedule your appointment
