OUR PROCESS Step 1: Discovery Call Every project begins with a Discovery Call. This conversation gives us the opportunity to learn more about your project, your goals, and your expectations, while also allowing you to get to know our team and design process. We believe that a successful project starts with the right partnership. During this call, we'll discuss your needs, answer any questions you may have, and determine whether Artisan Design Studio is the right fit for your project—and whether we are the right team to help bring your vision to life. If you'd like to schedule a Discovery Call, please contact us at (678) 569-4700 or visit our website at www.artisan-studio.com. There is no cost or obligation associated with this initial consultation.
Step 2A: Design Consultation Following the discovery call, prospective clients can determine if they are ready to move forward with an on-site design consultation. The cost for the on-site meeting & proposal is $500, which covers the time we spend at your home and the time back at the studio creating your custom design proposal. This consultation is generally 60-90 minutes, or enough time for us to “diagnose the patient” where we will evaluate your needs as a client, examine existing layouts and challenges within the space and discuss your overall desires for the project. For new construction or out of town projects, consultations can be held at our studio.
OUR PROCESS, CONTINUED Step 2B: Customized Proposal Approximately 14 business days following the design consultation, and once we’ve had time to thoughtfully evaluate the project, develop a detailed scope of work and address any construction challenges, we will compile a customized proposal that outlines our responsibilities as a firm in completing your project. Because our work is highly customized for each client, our pricing is done on a per-project basis, which will include a predetermined design fee and minimum expenditure. The fee for the on-site design consultation AND the comprehensive design proposal is $500. Clients beyond a 25 mile radius of our studio may incur an additional travel fee of $100 per additional hour of drive time for the in-home consultation.
Step 4: Proposal Review Once you receive the proposal, please review it in depth, as we want to ensure we’ve addressed everything on your wish list. Based on your scope and anticipated investment, we may suggested breaking for project into manageable phases and will detail the scope and timeline accordingly. Feel free to email us with any questions or reach out if you’d like to schedule a call to review your proposal.
Step 5: Contract & Scheduling One your proposal is finalized, we will send over a contract and invoice for any design fees that are due at the start of the project. We’ll review timelines and get started setting up our initial design meetings as listed in your proposal.
Now the fun begins!
