HOW WE WORK WITH CLIENTS Our projects include a Design Flat Fee, a Minimum Expenditure and Project Management Fees The Design Flat Fee Based on the agreed-upon project scope, we will develop a flat fee for the design services needed to complete your project. This ensures there will be no guessing at how much our services will cost, or surprises on invoices.

The Minimum Expenditure Each full service design project will include a minimum expenditure on tangible elements for the project. This expenditure can include furnishings, rugs, lighting, custom window treatments, artwork, bedding, etc. This is not a budget per se but a minimum agreed upon amount to engage our resources. Please note that minimum expenditures do not include sales tax.

Project Management - Hourly Project management time is billed monthly. Project management includes on-site meeting time with your contractor, subcontractors, etc. Because onsite meetings involve other vendors, we are not always in control of the timelines of these meetings, so unless noted in your scope, this time is billed separately from the project design fee.

ADDITIONAL SERVICES

PROJECT MANAGEMENT FEES: Project management fees are hourly design fees for on site meetings/ in office phone calls, etc that fall outside of the original scope of the project.

These fees are accrued hourly at a reduced rate of $200 per hour and billed monthly ADDITIONAL DESIGN SERVICES REQUESTED BY THE CLIENT OR CONTRACTOR: Additional design services, plans, 3D models or drawings that are requested outside of the agreed upon scope of work are billed at our standard rate of $200 per hour. Any contractor requests will always be approved by the client prior to any work being done TRAVEL CHARGES: Most of our projects are within the north Atlanta area.

We will work on your vacation home or investment property.

ADVANCING THE 16 PROJECT WHAT DO WE MEAN BY THIS? Once we begin on your project, you'll be receiving regular communication from our team.

PRODUCT PRICING STRUCTURE We have almost 20 years of curated relationships with our vendors.

We are confident in their quality, warranty & reliability Customer service is crucial with our trusted suppliers, and our relationships with our customer service reps comes in handy when unavoidable issues may arise.

Our pricing is always competitive The most important thing to remember is that we take your signature on our contract to mean that you trust and are excited for the direct and experienced input we will devote to the execution of your project. Our recommendations are meant to be in the best interest of our collective goals and we do not anticipate when signing on with a client that they will be shopping for product alongside us. That truly defeats the purpose of hiring us. We politely request your honest and enthusiastic feedback and collaboration, but also an understanding that keeping an open mind and allowing us the freedom to find the best solutions, products and designs for you is important to the overall goal of developing an amazingly beautiful and functional end result.

WE HAVE SPENT YEARS PERFECTING THIS BUSINESS MODEL SO THAT WE CAN PROUDLY OFFER A WIN/ WIN FOR BOTH OUR FIRM & OUR CLIENTS. WE PROMISE EXCELLENT DESIGN, SUPERIOR PRODUCTS, EXPERT ATTENTION TO DETAIL & FAIR PRICING

COMMUNICATION IS 18 OUR STRENGTH HOW WILL WE INFORM YOU? We send weekly updates from our design team noting any changes to your project, open invoices, calendar updates, delivery updates and anything else related to the progress of your project For those who wish to have it, we can provide a shared Dropbox folder for uploading your ideas We ask that all communication be sent in writing via email(short of urgent texts for running late, meeting cancellations, etc) . This helps to ensure we don't miss important communication and that we are all on the same page.

We realize that texting is sometimes the easiest form of communication, but we kindly ask that text not be your primary method of communication. The nature of our business has us frequently away from our desks and text messages are easily overlooked. Please communicate by email whenever possible or important, but know you may not get an immediate response. If you're running late, lost, or need to cancel on short notice, texting is fine.

WE'VE GOT YOU COVERED Lastly, here's some more information about how we work!

CHANGE ORDERS PROJECT TIMELINES

PURCHASING

CONTRACTOR COMMUNICATION

RECEIVING, STORAGE, AND DELIVERY

CHANGE 20 ORDERS AND HOW WE HANDLE THEM Changes must be made in writing Changes involving the contractor or architect must be submitted to them directly, but please copy us on all communication so we can make necessary notes of the changes and work with your contractor or architect to come up with the best solution Plan revisions made by Artisan Design Studio will be made at a fee of $200/ hour Custom merchandise is not returnable Anything non custom that can be returned will be assessed return freight charges, as well as restocking fees from the vendor, as well as project management fees for our time to handle the return

PROJECT 21 TIMELINES FROM START TO FINISH Rough timeline of your project

CONTRACTOR 22 COMMUNICATION AND HOW WE WORK WITH THEM We pride ourselves on our relationships and our communication with contractors, whether you're using one of our recommended contractors or your own. We promise to play well with everyone!

Some contractors who have worked with designers (not us!) in the past fear that we may complicate the process. That's simply not true with Artisan Design Studio. We help you stay on budget, on timeline and ensure you are happy with how your project turns out.

Your contractor will finish the project with less stress, happier clients and a project they will be proud to add to their portfolio.

We are not licensed contractors, and as such, we cannot control sub schedules & timelines. We do work closely with your contractor and their subcontractors to maintain open communication about timelines We are very conscientious when working with subs or contractors and only work with and recommend those we trust in our own homes. We do not warranty their work or assume any liability for their performance.

PURCHASING, 23 ORDERING, & INVOICING Furniture & other items must be paid in full at time of ordering Artisan Design Studio is not responsible for price increases or stock changes due to delay in invoice payment. Reselection due to lack of payment is not included in your design fee and will be billed at our standard hourly rate ($200) prior to replacement items being ordered Returned payments will be assessed a $55 fee Invoices more than 30 days past due will incur late payment fees We always do our best to move heaven and earth to get your items on site as quickly as possible. Quite often, we are successful.

Occasionally, there are manufacturer delays that are unavoidable Weekly order updates will be provided for all items on order. If you do not receive an update, it is because there are no changes from the previous week's update Artisan Design Studio will handle any warranty issues on merchandise we provide. Please contact us for warranty issues, not the manufacturer. All warranties will be in accordance with the manufacturer's published warranty for that item.

Payment via credit card or ACH may be assessed a convenience fee in accordance with our payment processor

RECEIVING, 24 STORAGE, & DELIVERY THE LOGISTICS AND HANDLING All items are shipped to our receiving warehouse for timely inspection. This allows us to handle any claims or damages if necessary, and ensure your items are kept safe until ready for installation Receiving, inspection & storage fees will accrue over the course of the project and will be billed at the end of the project.

Freight is difficult to estimate in advance with fluctuating fuel costs and surcharges. We are happy to do our best to estimate freight charges, but all freight/ shipping charges will be added to your final installation invoice Delivery charges to the jobsite will be added to final installation invoice. We will do our best to minimize the number of trips necessary to delivery, but will always allow our clients to add additional deliveries when desired. If any item is backordered and potentially affecting the install day timeline, we will discuss options & applicable costs with our clients
