Process
At Wonder Haus Design Studio, I’ll guide you through a collaborative design journey that unfolds in several stages, from our first meeting to the final placement of furnishings. Here's what you can expect when working with us:
1. Initial Consultation
Purpose: This is where we get to know each other! I’ll learn about your style preferences, functional needs, and budget, while you get a feel for my approach.
What Happens:
We’ll discuss your vision for the space, including what you love, what you want to change, and the overall atmosphere you’d like to create (e.g., cozy, modern, minimalist).
I’ll ask about your lifestyle (e.g., do you work from home, have kids or pets?) to ensure the design is both practical and beautiful.
I may request photos, measurements, and a description of your space to better understand what we’re working with.
Outcome: I’ll have a clear understanding of your goals, and you’ll see if my design style aligns with your vision.
2. Design Brief & Concept Development
Purpose: Using the information from our consultation, I’ll create a design brief and begin exploring ideas.
What Happens:
I’ll present a concept or mood board with color palettes, furniture styles, materials, and inspiration images that capture the overall vision.
You’ll review the concept and share feedback.
I may include sketches or 3D renderings to help you visualize the space.
Outcome: Together, we’ll refine the concept into a direction that perfectly reflects your vision.
3. Space Planning & Design Development
Purpose: At this stage, we’ll nail down the layout and all the details.
What Happens:
I’ll create detailed floor plans, furniture layouts, and lighting designs. If needed, we’ll discuss any structural changes.
We’ll finalize materials, finishes, and furniture options, from flooring and wall treatments to textiles and fixtures.
Your feedback ensures every detail reflects your preferences.
Outcome: A comprehensive design plan with all specifications in place.
4. Sourcing & Procurement
Purpose: I’ll handle sourcing and acquiring the furnishings, decor, and materials.
What Happens:
I’ll purchase or guide you in selecting furniture, decor items, lighting, and artwork.
For custom pieces, I’ll collaborate with trusted craftsmen and manufacturers.
You’ll review and approve samples of fabrics, paint colors, or finishes.
Outcome: All design elements are ordered and on their way to bringing your vision to life.
5. Project Management & Execution
Purpose: I’ll oversee the entire process to ensure everything is executed seamlessly.
What Happens:
If renovations are required, I’ll work closely with contractors.
I’ll coordinate deliveries and installations, monitoring progress to keep everything on track.
If unexpected challenges arise, I’ll handle adjustments to keep the project moving smoothly.
Outcome: The space begins to take shape as the design plan comes to life.
6. Styling & Final Touches
Purpose: Time to perfect the details and make the space shine!
What Happens:
I’ll arrange accessories, art, and decor to create a cohesive, polished look.
Final elements like rugs, throw pillows, and plants will be added to complete the design.
We’ll walk through the space together to ensure everything feels just right.
Outcome: Your space is styled and ready for you to enjoy.
7. Final Reveal & Handover
Purpose: This is the exciting moment when you see the finished design!
What Happens:
I’ll walk you through the completed project to confirm everything meets your expectations.
Any last-minute tweaks can be addressed at this stage.
I’ll provide tips on maintaining your new furnishings and finishes.
Outcome: Your space is transformed and ready for you to live in and love.
8. Post-Completion Follow-Up
Purpose: To ensure everything is functioning perfectly and you’re still loving the design.
What Happens:
I’ll check in after a few weeks or months to make sure you’re completely satisfied.
If any adjustments are needed, I’ll take care of them.
Outcome: The project is officially wrapped up, and your space is fully aligned with your needs and lifestyle.
Key Considerations:
Communication: We’ll stay in close contact throughout the process to make decisions together.
Budget: Setting a clear budget upfront is essential, but flexibility allows us to navigate unexpected opportunities or challenges.
Timeline: Custom pieces and renovations take time, but I’ll keep you updated and ensure everything progresses smoothly.
At Wonder Haus Design Studio, my goal is to create a space that’s uniquely yours—beautiful, functional, and perfectly aligned with your life.
