Expert Design Guidance, Tailored to You

Expert Consulting

A focused, in-home design session offering clear, professional direction through impactful, real-time guidance.

Expert Consulting is a 90-minute, designer-led walkthrough of your Connecticut home designed to address your most pressing design questions and unlock confident next steps. This session is conversational and highly tailored—rooted in verbal guidance, spatial understanding, and design principles you can apply across rooms and over time.

What to Expect

Focused. Tangible. Impactful.

During our time together, we’ll walk through your home and focus on the decisions that matter most.

In this session, we may cover:

Overall layout, flow, and spatial relationships
Furniture placement, scale, and proportion
Color direction, pattern balance, and material cohesion
Key measurements that inform fit and functionality
Foundational design principles that can be applied throughout your home
Verbal guidance delivered in real time (clients are encouraged to take notes or record for reference)

This session is entirely customized to your space, lifestyle, and priorities. In 90 minutes, we typically review an entire ~2,500 sq. ft. home or focus more deeply on 5–7 rooms of your choosing.

Common Questions

Still looking for an answer to your question?

Who is this service best suited for?

Open to Connecticut residents only. This service is catered to the home decor enthusiast who is capable of taking our recommendations and executing them independently. Typically, this is a homeowner who has an eye for design, time on their hands and enjoys shopping for home decor.

How can i best prepare for my consultation?

To make the most of your session we recommend walking through your priority spaces with your partner and writing down questions you have for each space.

This includes a ton of verbal notation. We always recommend our clients come with a notebook and pen to take notes. Since there’s no follow up with this service and we don’t keep internal notes, you’ll need these to refer back to.

Will the consultation be specific to me and my home?

We like to arm you with information so each session will be specific to you woven with design principles. These design “rules” allow you to execute consistency across multiple rooms and understand how to bring everything together. Additionally, we take your questionnaire responses to learn more about you so when we dive in, it’s with the knowledge of who you are, what your lifestyle needs are and what you like.

How many rooms can we complete with our time together?

This session is high-level ideas with some specifics so we can typically move through a entire 2,500 sq.ft. home. If your home is larger, one floor might be more realistic. You’re welcome to book as many sessions as you need to accomplish your home goals.

Will you pick out specific products for/with me?

This consultation does not include any shopping services. While we’ll give you product recommendations, it will be up to you to locate the products, purchase the products and install them in your home. For assistance with sourcing and procurement, our Full Service Furnishings would be a great fit!

What if I need additional support after?

This consultation can be booked as many times as needed but we recognize your to-do list might be overwhelming or your availability has changed and you’d like additional support. In that case we recommend our Full Service Design for a comprehensive design approach.

What is your cancellation, rescheduling, and refund policy?

Refunds are accepted within 72 hours of booking. After this period, your session is considered confirmed and the fee becomes non-refundable.

Cancellations or rescheduling requests are accepted up to 24 hours prior to the scheduled appointment and may be made directly through your confirmation link. Requests made within 24 hours of the appointment are not guaranteed; however, if an issue arises, please email us at [email protected].

Rescheduling requests made within 24 hours may be accommodated one time at our discretion. Any additional late rescheduling or missed appointments will result in forfeiture of the session fee.

Limitations

For in-home Expert Consulting sessions with Connecticut residents, this service is intended to provide clarity and direction rather than replace full-service design. It is not intended for renovation planning, construction coordination, detailed drawings, sourcing, or procurement.

All recommendations are shared verbally during the session to support thoughtful, informed decision-making at your own pace.

Please read our policy on cancelling, rescheduling and refunds in the FAQ above prior to booking.
