DESIGN INTENSIVES


EXPERT DESIGN HELP, EXACTLY WHERE YOU NEED IT.

Not every project needs full-service design. Sometimes you already have a good sense of what you want—you just need an experienced designer to help you make it happen.

Design Intensives give you dedicated time with me to tackle the design decisions, sourcing, planning, and problem-solving your home needs most.

Purchase a block of design hours and use them where they'll have the biggest impact, whether that's refining a room you're already working on, making decisions across several spaces, or finally getting the design plan out of your head and into your home.

A DESIGNER IN YOUR CORNER — WITHOUT HANDING OVER THE WHOLE PROJECT.

You stay in control of your home and your project. I bring the trained eye, creative direction, resources, and expertise to help you move forward with confidence.

Your hours can be used for whatever your project calls for, including:

  • Space planning and furniture layouts

  • Furniture, lighting, and decor sourcing

  • Paint, wallpaper, and finish selections

  • Material and fixture guidance

  • Art and accessory direction

  • Styling and finishing touches

  • Renovation and remodeling guidance

  • Reviewing selections you've already made

  • Creating a cohesive direction across multiple rooms

  • Troubleshooting a space that just isn't working

  • Helping you prioritize what's worth changing—and what isn't

 
 

HOW IT WORKS

01 — Choose your design time

Design Intensives begin with a 5-hour minimum at $150/hour. Additional hours can be added based on the scope and needs of your project.

02 — Tell me what you're working on

Before we begin, we'll identify your priorities and determine how to make the most of your design time.

03 — Let's get to work

Your hours are yours to use where (and when) you need them most. Depending on your project, we may work together virtually, through shared selections and recommendations, or through a combination of both.

04 — Keep moving

You'll leave with clearer direction, confident decisions, and a plan you can actually execute.


IS A DESIGN INTENSIVE RIGHT FOR YOU?

Design Intensives are a great fit if:

You have the vision, but need help pulling it together.
You've saved the inspiration. You've bought a few pieces. Now you need someone to connect the dots.

You're making a lot of decisions at once.
Furniture, paint, lighting, finishes… suddenly everything needs an opinion. I'm happy to provide one.

You're DIYing the project, but don't want to DIY the design.
You can handle the implementation. You just want an expert guiding the big decisions.

You want professional guidance without full-service management.
You don't need someone to manage every purchase and installation. You need an experienced designer to help you get it right.

You have several smaller projects you'd like to tackle.
Use your hours across multiple spaces or priorities rather than committing to one large project.


WHAT THIS ISN'T

Design Intensives aren't a scaled-down version of full-service design.

They're a different way of working together—one that gives you access to professional design expertise while allowing you to remain more hands-on with your project.

You decide how much help you need. I help you make the most of it.
