Professional Consultations in person or via eDesign

  • Most clients work on an hourly basis to get the design details needed to get your project going and seeing it to completion.  This time can be spent on my research and presentation activity and/or shopping at local stores for the items you need. 
  • We can visit the Cincinnati Design Center for more choices.  If you really want to do some great shopping, we can go to the markets where you will see more choices than you ever imagined. 
  • eDesign is available if you live outside of the greater Cincinnati/Dayton areas! Click here to find out more!

Local shopping for items, some at wholesale prices

  • I can source some products for you locally, or you may have your favorite place and just want some guidance. 
  • There are some products available at local distributors that sell to wholesale only customers and when you shop there with me, you will get better pricing for those items. 

Custom Upholstered Furniture with thousands of choices for styles and fabrics

  • I work directly with furniture manufacturers in North Carolina for a truly custom look.  The products are the best built pieces available and with COM (customer’s own material) your upholstered items will be one of a kind.  I personally carry over 25,000 fabrics and have access to many more.

Custom Window Treatments, Table Linens and Bedding

  • All windows can benefit from custom treatments and high quality hardware.  With your bedding, soft fashion accessories and draperies coordinated with designer fabrics, your home will have enviable appeal.  My professional installers give them their finishing touch.

Lighting

  • Whether you need fixed or stand alone lighting in any style, we will narrow down the choices to assist you to make the best decision. 

Art and Accessories

  • There are thousands of choices available for the latest look in finishing details and when you shop directly from the supplier, you get not only better choices, but things that you will never see in a retail store. 
  • Some clients want to use what they have and rearrange them for a new look.  Those can be used alone or with a mix of new things for a fresh look.

Room Planning

  • Instead of moving the furniture around several times, save your back, floors and your time with a professional room plan.  We can use computerized tools to move your objects around without the risks to find the best solution. 

Flooring

  • Flooring looks simple, but can be very confusing.  Getting the right look and the best functionality is important.  Professional consultation is the best way to eliminate the risk while getting the look and value that you want.  

Wallpaper

  • Yes, wallpaper is still alive and well.  You will find the patterns ranging from the traditional look to more up-to-date textures.  Many look like expensive faux or hand painted finishes.  I assist you to get the best look with oversize samples and in-your-home selections. 

Relationships with quality, dependable contractors

  • I have worked with many honest, qualified professionals and will recommend only those who I trust to get the job done.
