FAQ: Answers to your burning questions
What size budget do I need to work with you?
The budget varies depending on the design scope and scale of a project. Our minimum budget is $100k with a focus on full-room design only.
What is your design style?
As designers, we are trained to design in any style. Every client is unique and we focus on making each environment one of a kind. We have a special passion for comfortable modern spaces that combine a variety of artwork, beautiful architecture, and unique exterior environments.
When is the right time to bring in a designer for a construction project?
At the very beginning. We work closely with architects and builders at the start of the design process to ensure the end environment meets client needs, dreams, and goals. Starting at the beginning saves time and money on changes that could happen later without early alignment.
Do I need to go shopping with you?
Full-service design means we bring all the sourcing options to you. This allows you to see the options within your environment and in the context of the full room.
Do I need a clear vision before I hire you?
Most clients do not have a vision for what exactly they want. That is our job! We spend time getting to know you, your family, passions, lifestyle, and interests. Then, we can create a design aesthetic that brings the best version of you to life within your home.
What is your interior design process?
At the House of JerMar, we have a simple 4-step process:
Step 1: Initial call ensuring our visions are in alignment.
Step 2: On-site consultation where we review the project, set a budget, and define the desired outcome together.
Step 3: Letter of Agreement: Detailed design scope with a timeframe for the design stages, the applicable fees, and terms of creating together.
Step 4: Wellness creation begins.
