At So Chic Home Design & Styling, the process we undertake
with our clients is simple.
Design is a series of
collaborative steps that get us from today's "OMG,
WHAT AM I GOING TO DO? HELP!" to tomorrow's
"OMG, I LOVE IT!"

INITIAL DESIGN
CONSULTATION
The First Date -
Getting to Know You |
| |
|
| |
Great design involves a
bit of authenticity,
art, and discovery. As
such, we begin all of
our projects with a
mandatory initial design
consultation. This is
what we like to call our
"get-to-know-you", or
"first date" session.
During this time, we
want to know how you'd
like to feel and
function in your
completed space.
This is the BIG PICTURE
discussion allowing us
to get a better
understanding of the
scope of your project,
to help you define your
style preferences, as
well as discuss your
overall project
investment and our fee
estimates. We also get
to see the space, take
preliminary photos and
if necessary rough
measurements.
During the consultation
you will have time to ask any
questions, discuss your
ultimate dream interior
(complete with
inspiration pix!)
and really get a better
understanding on how we
work. The consultation
can be anywhere from one
hour to two depending on
the size of the project.
Duration:
From 1-2 hours

CONCEPTUAL DESIGN PHASE
Your Personalized
Design Proposal |
| |
|
| |
After the scope of work
and design agreement
have been approved, we
will create a detailed
design concept project
proposal, including
inspirational look pages
and a visual design
style plan of what we
envision for your
interior as well as a
broken-down rough budget
consideration for your
project.
This usually takes 1 to
3 weeks depending on our
availability and the
scope of work required.
Once we are finished, we
will review the proposal
together (by either a
virtual meeting and/or
onsite) making sure that
we are on the same page
regarding the overall
aesthetic direction of
the design, the
estimated total
investment (including
our design fees and
terms) and next steps..
Please see
examples of some of our
creative design
deliverables below.
Duration:
This stage usually takes
between 1-3 weeks. |

DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
Decision-Making &
Purchasing Phase |
| |
|
| |
After the conceptual
design phase, this is
where the wheels start
turning and our team
hammers out the details.
In this phase, we will
complete
good/better/best
selections relating to
your inspirational
concept board(s)
including color
palettes, fabrics,
furniture, lighting, etc
and will begin
finalizing product
proposals for your
approval.
From there, we will
begin the Procurement
Phase by ordering all
approved product
proposals. Sourcing will
dominate this phase. All
purchasing goes through
us. Once product
proposals are approved
by you and payment is
received, orders are
placed. We will oversee,
coordinate, and inspect
product deliveries. Once
the procurement phase is
complete, we will set an
installation date.
Duration:
This stage can take up
to 16-20 weeks, largely
depending on the scope
of work, product
availability and
shipping times. |

CONSTRUCTION WORK PHASE
Renovation, Construction
& Conditional Work |
| |
|
| |
If your project includes
a renovation, this is
when the construction
and conditional work of
the project begins. This
is often thought of as
the most stressful stage
for clients because
there's so many moving
parts at once, but we
will do our very best to
alleviate that stress.
At this point in the
process, design
materials should be
ordered and begin
arriving on site. If we
are hired to
project-manage the
remodel process for you,
we will work closely
with your project design
teams, including
architects, bath and
kitchen designers,
contractors, vendors,
and craftsmen as your
trusted design advocate,
overseeing it from start
to finish while
communicating on your
behalf specific details
to ensure a successful
outcome.
Duration:
The duration of this
phase varies based on
the specific
design/build elements of
your project. |

DESIGN
EXECUTION/INSTALLATION
Project Completion |
| |
|
| |
They say the last little
10% seems to take the
longest. This the last
stage of your project:
the Installation.
Our team will be on site
to install the finishing
touches to your dream
interior--bringing the
dream concept to a
transformative,
personalized
sanctuary.
Duration:
This stage (expressed in
terms of hours-days)
depends on the project
size. |
