Valiant Design is a locally owned and operated by Stephenie Trulson. As the Owner/Designer she plays a vital role in all Commercial and Residential projects contracted to Valiant Design.
When asking Stephenie how she works with her clients, she relayed this story...
'Just this week, I had casually mentioned to a client that I am 'anal' over the details. He laughed. Not just a small chuckle, rather a belly laugh that seemed to last forever. So, naturally, I asked why he was laughing so hard. His response, "Yes, I would say you are a little 'anal' about the details. I like that in some people, and you are one of them."
(*See Pine Hollow Custom Design pics for the stunning results of his project.)
You need some back story now, huh? See, this was a gentleman that was building his own home and hired me as a designer. We had just gone over the house plans that he had drawn up with another firm. During this process, I 'walk' through the plan in my mind. I am looking for flow issues, I am looking for corners where the trim may be cut short, I am looking for natural tile/carpet lines. I am looking for whether or not your nightstands will fit next to the bed. I am looking at what you will see when you walk into a room...is it functional? Is it balanced? Is it attractive?
When hiring a design professional, you want to pay close attention to their resume, for sure, but don't ignore whether or not you can communicate well with them and feel at ease. You want a professional that will care about the details of the end result as much as you will. These factors are critical to the success of your project.
And these factors are why you should have her contact info...
