Our Signature 4-step process takes the guesswork out of your hands and into ours. Here’s a look at the journey we’ll take together:


Phase 1

Design Consultation

We begin the process with an in-depth consultation to learn more about your project needs and vision for your space. A home is a reflection of who you are, so we’ll dive into your story, walk through your inspiration, and chat about your budget and project needs. Since this is virtual, you’ll use our easy step-by-step guide to provide us with the measurements, photos, and videos of your space prior to the call.


Phase 2

Design Vision

After learning all about you and your project needs, the next phase is the Design Vision! We start by gathering all the info and inspiration from your consultation and apply it to establish your design style, room layout, and overall creative direction of your space. We then get your approval on both items to ensure that we are on the same page before we begin sourcing.

Phase 3

Design Creation

Once the vision + layout plan has been established, then the design creation begins! This is where we pull actual furniture selections, window treatments, and/or fixtures to bring the vision to life. We create 3 different design concepts for you to choose from with furniture selections along with a realistic 3D rendering of our recommended concept. There may be a few rounds of revisions here to ensure we land on a home design that you love.

Phase 4

Design Implementation

After we’ve settled on a design concept you love, it’s time for us to wrap up the project and hand it over to you! You will now have everything you need to begin shopping and bringing your dream home to life on your own timeline. Our final deliverables to you will be the final design plan with a master shopping list, layout plan, and a detailed implementation & style guide.

 
 
 
 

 Frequently Asked Questions

Designing your home is a big step — so here’s a few answers to questions you may have.


+ WHO IS E-DESIGN BEST FOR?

Our virtual interior design services (or E-design services) are best for those looking for guidance and direction in bringing their space together but are comfortable implementing the final plan.

+ HOW WILL WE COMMUNICATE DURING THE PROJECT ?

Each client will have access to their own Client Hub that we will use to collaborate together and share project updates. We also use email to communicate updates, send meeting invites, and for any day-to-day communication.

+ WHAT WILL I BE RESPONSIBLE FOR PROVIDING?

In order for us to get started on your project, we ask each client to take time to provide photos, videos, and measurements of their space before our Design Consultation. We provide a Client Homework + Measurement guide to ensure that it's an easy process! Lastly, you’ll need to set aside time to complete the Design Consultation Questionnaire before our meeting.

+ WILL YOU BE PURCHASING THE FURNITURE FOR ME?

Due to the virtual nature of E-Design, CQ Interiors does not purchase on your behalf unless specifically requested. We hand the final deliverables to you for you to purchase. We do offer styling services for an additional fee.

+ DO YOU SOURCE RETAIL OR TRADE?

We source a mix of retail and trade pieces based on each clients' budget.

+ CAN I SEE SOME OF THE ITEMS IN PERSON BEFORE PURCHASING?

We understand purchasing furniture online is not for everyone! Therefore, if you request to see / sit-in furniture before purchasing, we can recommend pieces from retailers that have a local presence where you live.

+ I HAVE EXISTING PIECES, CAN IT STILL WORK WITH THE NEW HOME DESIGN?

Great question! We do our services best starting from a blank space. If there are pieces (1 - 3) you'd like to keep in your home, let us know and we will incorporate them into your new design plan. If there are more than 3 pieces, you may need to look into our styling only plan that is perfect for those that just need finishing touches.
