WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A 1:1 EXPERT CONSULTATION AND FULL-SERVICE DESIGN?
The difference between Full-Service Design and a 1:1 Expert Consultation lies in the scope and involvement of the services. The 1:1 Expert Consultation provides personalized, one-on-one guidance with the Owner and Principal Designer, Brenda Thompson. This service is tailored for clients looking for expert advice on specific design needs. In contrast, Full-Service Design offers a comprehensive, hands-on approach covering everything from initial design concepts to sourcing, installation, and coordination with builders and trades. It is ideal for clients seeking to complete a transformation, build a home, or receive curated home furnishings with as little involvement as possible.
