The questions people ask before hiring a decorator for the first time.
What does the decorator deliver?
It depends on the proposal: a colour palette, a reference board, a list of furniture and objects with where to buy them, and a layout of the room. Each proposal describes the deliverables before you decide.
Do I need to renovate to decorate?
No. Decoration works with what already exists. If a job turns out to need building work, the decorator says so and you decide.
How much does a decoration consultation cost?
Publishing is free. Each professional sends their own proposal, with a price and a timeline. You pay per stage, as you approve the deliveries.
Can I ask for a quick consultation only?
Yes. Say in the brief that you want a consultation and the decorators answer with proposals in that format.
How does buying the furniture work?
The decorator points to the items and where to find them. The purchase is yours, with no intermediary.
