A Return to Fine Design Once you have hired the designer you feel the most comfortable with, it is time to discuss your project. Design should proceed in a logical manner. The first step for a designer is to come to the house to measure the areas, photograph the spaces and interview the clients to get a better understanding of their lifestyle. Having this information, the designer moves onto the specific room plans, alternate color and product selections. Choosing specific furniture pieces is a large and important aspect of the process. The floor plan is key to the entire project as it zeros in on
the exact location and scale of all the furniture. At this point, the preliminary design is presented to the client for discussion and approval. A very important step at this point, would be to see the choices of fabrics and color in the actual room settings. After fine-tuning all aspects of the design elements, orders are placed with the approval of the client. When the finished room is produced, the transformation is both exciting and rewarding. • Claudia Dowling Claudia Dowling Interiors, 631-421-5290
