How To Create a Luxurious Bathroom: Lara’s 6 Awesome Tips!
February 17, 2023

Your interior designer will be in charge of the look, flow, and quality of one of your most important and treasured investments. So, you’ll need to trust that they will make the hundreds of detailed decisions that go into the home design process correctly and to your liking. You’ll need to trust that they have the experience and design knowledge to answer and resolve the design questions and challenges that arise during a project expertly and efficiently. You’ll need to trust that they’ll work seamlessly and professionally with your design team, and also bill you appropriately and to the terms of your agreement. That’s a whole lot of trust going on!
When it comes to billing and purchasing, if you’ve done your homework and asked lots of good questions upfront, you shouldn’t experience any billing surprises. To uncover the key questions to ask a prospective designer during your interview, please read my incredibly insightful post on How to Work With an Interior Designer – The Interview. Understanding how your designer will charge you and how much their fees are is a crucial step in setting the stage for a long-lasting and trusting relationship.
I also must note…like with any good relationship, trust works both ways! Your designer also needs to trust you’ll keep your end of the agreement too. For example, if you’ve agreed to have your designer do all the purchasing for your home and you start to make a bunch of purchases, this could create tension in your relationship. Or, if you don’t take your designer’s design advice, second guess them, or overrule them without a discussion first, it’s sure to cause friction. To avoid these detrimental pitfalls, I’ve put together these 5 key points for you to consider when working with your interior designer to ensure you have a great design experience that surpasses your expectations:
