Our passion is not just for turning houses into homes, but for enhancing lives and lifting spirits. We believe this is best accomplished when we take the time to truly get to know each client. Based on our company’s core values, we are happy to report that many of our clients become lifelong friends! During the initial meeting, we’ll get to know all about who you are, and what you envision to be your dream home. We’ll learn about your lifestyle and how you want your space to function. This will determine the project scope and set the design direction.

Specific topics to be discussed include:

• Review your existing plans
• Function of each room
• Review your inspirational photos, Pinterest Board and/or Houzz Ideabook
• Review BROWN portfolio
• Desired style/colors
• Your budget
• Our fees
• Time frame

If your project includes construction, we will also discuss:

• Coordination with your existing Architect/Contractor
• Scope of the project
• Copy of existing plans
• Material preferences
• Budget
• Recommendations of other professionals

It’s time to get down to business! Based on the initial meeting, your designer will draft a custom design presentation for your project.

The presentation will include the following:

• Concepts for design, color and style of the overall project
• Layouts of furniture, custom built-ins and wall/ceiling concepts to help the client envision the room
• Preliminary suggestions for furnishings, area rugs, carpet and window treatments
• Minimum of three fabric and furniture alternatives will be provided based on the clients feedback

After making your selections from the design presentation, we will compose a final design proposal. This will include descriptions, dimensions and pricing for each individual piece. Once you provide final approval and deposit on the proposal, it’s time to start ordering!

All orders will be checked regularly for production time and status. You will receive status reports and estimated delivery information throughout the project on all orders. All items will be received, inspected, and stored in our warehouse. This allows us to guarantee quality control, and relieves you from dealing with any logistical issues.

Whether you are in town or out of town, sit back and relax as we choreograph all on-site installations. This includes the coordination of all sub-contractors—painters, carpet installers, wall finishing, window treatments, furniture delivery, custom cabinetry, etc—so that the transformation of your home happens efficiently and effectively.

• Construction Book – all selections will be included in a construction book showing location, direction, specification and pictures of all material selections along with wall elevations, ceiling and other details to insure the design intent is executed in the field
• Timelines – We will assist the client with prioritizing selections to accommodate the construction schedule. However, it is the responsibility of the general contractor to meet the specified deadlines.
