20 Dining Rooms With Chic Chandeliers and Pendant Light

“The size of a dining room doesn’t determine its pizzazz, as illustrated by this eclectic Los Angeles dining room by KrimsonHaus. It pairs sheer ombre curtains with blush-colored chairs and a burnished gold pedestal table. A white, gold and black chandelier holds its own style-wise without outshining the more colorful elements in the room.”

How Hiring An Interior Designer Can Help Save Money On Renovations And Increase The Value Of A Home

Many individuals are still unsure about the role of an interior designer. Despite popular misconceptions that interior designers simply enjoy shopping for furniture, selecting fabrics, and choosing colors, their role goes far beyond that.

As interior designers, our first priority is to understand our clients' lifestyle and how they function in their space. Based on this information, we design a functional space that appeals to the client's senses and creates an environment they can love and thrive in.

Another article by Forbes called, “How Much Does An Interior Designer Cost?” talks about what to expect from hiring an interior designer financially. Of course, we are not cheap, but the knowledge and expertise will make up for it. The article says, “The average hourly rate is in the $100 to $200 per hour range, but it depends on a designer’s experience level. For example, if there are several designers working on your project, a junior level designer’s time may be billed at $50 per hour while the principal designer’s time can be billed anywhere from $200 to $500 per hour.”

With that being said, you have to consider your budget for the project and a designer can help you with that. They can give you an idea of what an area can cost.

The second biggest misconception is that we are financial guslars. But in reality, it is the contrary. So why is hiring an interior designer helpful in saving money when it comes to renovations? According to an article written by Amanda Lauren at Forbes, she states, designers, have the capability of connecting you to trades individuals, help with bidding & understanding allowances when it comes to materials purchasing. She goes on to say, “One of the easiest ways interior designers help save cash is through their trade discounts. Special pricing can apply to everything from fixtures to furniture, appliances, and even décor.”

It’s been an honor to be feature on another article by LB Home & Living. We are beyond ecstatic to share our work with the world and we continue to change people’s lives.

In the article written by Stephanie Gardner, she states, “Thomas brings construction value to the table after working with contractors in the past. He has knocked down walls, laid tiling, and even done electrical work. This knowledge about how things work inside a home gives him a unique perspective about what types of changes can be made to benefit a space. Christian is adept at diving into the psychology of each client and really getting in their heads. Once he knows what the client’s design style is, he sets out on making it a reality. A lot of other interior designers choose pieces that suit their own style, but Thomas and Christian are client-focused.”

We are always looking to grow and to grow with our clients. We love to be able to understand them fully so that we can bring the best to the table. If you want to read the article please click here!

What is a realistic budget for a kitchen remodel?

Thinking about a kitchen remodel can seem overwhelming, but a little bit of research and talking to the right people can definitely bring a level of confidence in the execution. It is important to think about your timeline and your budget and discuss that with your designer. They would be able to guide you as to what is achievable based on budget and what can be done. If you’re budget conscious then changing the plumbing fixtures, hardware and paint can make a huge difference. A great designer can achieve anything as long as they are creative and innovative. An article by Top Kitchen Cabinets says that the most expensive parts of a kitchen remodel are your cabinetry first, your appliances second and your countertops third.

Obviously, this will all depend on what actually fits your needs and how you want the space to feel. Another article by Clique Studios says, “For the average, medium-sized kitchen remodel, $20,000 to $50,000 is a reasonable starting point for your budget. Your remodeling budget will depend on things like where you live, home value, product selection, and project scope.”
