frequently asked questions
We hope that this page can answer any general questions you may have. Interior design is a personal and custom service so we recognize you may have more in depth questions. If so, please fill out this form and we will respond in a timely manner!
how does pricing work?
Habitat Interiors Co values transparency which is why we prefer pricing based on the square footage of the project. You get to know the price up front instead of us charging by the hour and wondering what the cost will end up being.
what if I don't know my style?
You're not alone! Many people don't connect with a single interior design style. This is something that we love navigating with our clients to make a unique space for you.
when is the right time to hire a designer?
The earlier the better! We love to come up with a full vision of the home with our clients so the sooner we can start discussing ideas, the better the final result will be. Time is our most precious resource!
I've never worked with a designer before, what is the process like?
Although each project varies you can expect an initial consultation where we discuss what the project looks like for you. If you are wanting to lay back and have us do all the work, we can do that! Or if you want to be more involved, we can weave that into our planning as well. After the initial consultation, we will present you with a scope of work to ensure everyone is on the same page.
what is the difference between an interior designer and an interior decorator?
The biggest differentiator between decorator and designer is a broader scope of knowledge. Typically, decorators are more geared towards furnishings, accessories and those finishing touches. A designer does those styling elements but also has additional background on the construction of a project to ensure your space is up to code, functions properly and looks beautiful.
what is your 'style'?
At Habitat Interiors Co we pride ourselves on customizing each project to our client. So although we often have go to elements, each space is unique to best accommodate our client.
what can I do to get the most out of this experience?
This is completely dependent on your goals for the project. If you're hoping to lay back and never lift a finger, the answer for you would be to trust us to put together your space. But, if you have a specific vision you want to make sure is executed then communication is key for all decision makers. Clear and timely communication ensures that the project will stay on schedule along with bringing the space you're dreaming for to life.
