Annie typically works with her clients in one of three ways...

 

Walk-Through Consultation

 

For those wishing to remodel a current property, Annie visits and serves as an expert sounding board for clients’ renovation plans, helping them refine concepts and identify pitfalls while advising on finishes, fixtures, and other choices. Clients often say she brings fresh inspiration to their projects and finds solutions they hadn’t thought of themselves, whether it’s a material they weren’t familiar with or ways to make a space more functional. 

​

For clients who are considering buying a property, Annie visits and assesses the property, providing objective insight into its strengths and shortcomings to help form a full, balanced picture of the investment before a decision is made. 

 

Annie’s Walk-Through Consultations typically run two hours.

À La Carte Consulting

 

Clients schedule this hourly time with Annie as needed to work through their design dilemmas.

 

Many clients have Annie review their project at the architecture stage, whether helping select a firm or providing an expert second opinion on existing bids and plans. 

 

Other clients turn to Annie with their floor plans, for feedback on functionality and flow before purchases are made. Clients often have an idea of the furnishings they want to bring their plans to life with but can’t decide among the endless options; Annie thrives in helping them make decisions and move the project forward.  

 

Budget guidance is another common topic. When a client is over-budget on a project, for example, Annie identifies the cost-saving opportunities and tough decisions necessary to get back on track.

Full-Service Consulting

 

For clients who require Annie’s full breadth of design abilities, she advises on a more comprehensive, longer-term basis, often from a project’s concept to completion.

 

Annie supports these clients through every step of the design and construction process, acting as a liaison between the client and the project’s architects, landscape designers, contractors, and other parties. Clients often say they can communicate with Annie more easily than they can with the parties themselves and find relief as she advocates for them throughout the process, especially to ensure the project’s design concepts are fully honored and expressed.

 

Annie gives these clients access to her rolodex of resources — the specialty vendors, artisans, and workers she’s built relationships with over the course of her career, whether the job is custom window treatments, sourcing and installing the perfect slab for a counter or tile for a floor, moving large artwork safely, or contractors. Given her valued relationships with these contacts, she’s often able to secure pricing that is lower than is available to others. 

 

In addition to residential interior and exterior design, Annie also provides this level of service for commercial construction and remodeling projects, such as hotels and shops. 

 

Annie’s Full-Service Consulting is on a retainer basis. She works with the client to agree on an average number of hours per week during which she’ll be on call and at the client’s service. 

 

(Contact for rate; additionally, commissions on purchases apply.)
