“When my husband and I started gathering ideas for our new home we felt overwhelmed with decisions that needed to be made. The easiest and most rewarding decision was to ask for Patricia’s design assistance. Patricia’s ability to conceptualize space and coordinate colors and textures was reassuring. She paid attention to our personal tastes while making professional and practical suggestions to guide us in our decision making. She helped transform ideas from our imagination into reality. In the end, our dream home has turned out to be exactly that.”

Initial Consultations
An initial consultation is suggested to meet and discuss your ideas and needs. This provides us with the opportunity to gather information about what is best for your space, situation, and the scope of the project. It is at this time that we can determine if you require just a makeover or more is required; such as adding or changing colors, planning your furniture size and placement, or adding artwork, lighting, or window treatments. We can suggest painters, upholstery and window treatment services, or just about anything to revitalize your home. Whether for a new home, renovation, or simply to refresh and create change, we can assist you with your decorating dilemma. At the initial consultation, we will complete a questionnaire with you and review your requirements and possible options.
It is very helpful to gather certain information prior to the consultation. Collect magazine clippings that interest you: the color, furniture, fabric, style, and anything that is of a source of inspiration. Carefully consider your lifestyle and budget. Patricia will assist you in setting both short term goals and developing long range plans that will ensure that the finished project is part of a well-coordinated design. This consultation appointment is billed at the standard hourly fee, minimum 1 hour.

We can help...there is a certain order and approach to the selection of interior finishes that can save you time and money; avoiding costly mistakes, simplifying the decision process, and enhancing your own personal style. These finishes may include surfaces such as flooring, cabinets, counters, tile splashes and shower-tub surrounds, mouldings, fabrics, window-wall treatments and paint color selections. You will be guided through the decision making process; including deciding which surface finish to choose first; exploring the variety of choices available; as well as discussing the features and benefits of each selection.
