Budget

8 years ago

Hello, we will be soon moving into our new home(currently being rented) and would like to make some changes like flooring, window treatments. A bathroom remodel is also on the cards. How much should we budget for assistance from an interior designer for these as well space decor(furniture selection). Thanks.

Have a chat with a few to get a feel for them and their style. Budget for professional service varies as it depends on wether it's a one off consultation or if they're taking full control of the project.

It will be time and money well spent however as they will save you money on things like wasted furniture purchases that don't work as well as expected, poor colour choices, etc., etc.

Interior designers are way way underrated!

Hi Shrimann. This is a very subjective question. The budget for the interior work can only be determined depending on your expectations of the final outcome. Even after that, selection of materials play an important role. The market is flooded with various quality and range of materials. Eg. A tile could range from 30-40 per sft to 200-300 per sft. Now that itself can alter the budget. Sijmilarly, veneers have a wide variety and range. What would be ideal for you is to identify some materials in the market and then work backwards. Alternatively, you can get an estimnate from an interior designer or a contractor for the work to be done and then fit in your numbers to alter the budget. As for designer fee, again, that is dependent on the individual's experience and eye for detail. You will find designers who charge around 30-40 per sft and also someone who charges 200-300 per sft. But again, the outcome will be completely different. At times upfront cost migh sound like a lot, but in long run overall cost, including the saving due to designer's experience and also due to any error or lack of it, might be much less.

Hi Divya, The best initial steps are to talk to a few designers to see who feels right for you. From experience its hard to establish everything you may need help with before you meet. An initial consultation to get a better understanding of the brief and also give you an idea of the designer is a great idea. After the first meeting we try to establish exactly what areas to focus on. We sometimes call this a reverse brief. The designer can then quote on an hourly basis or by the work that is specified. Let me know if you require any further assistance
