UNDERSTANDING OUR DESIGN PROCESS

Before Becoming a client:

Step 1:

After you fill out the questionnaire, we will email you to schedule a FREE 20 min phone call where we can discuss any further details not addressed in the questionnaire

STEP 2:

If we seem like a good fit, then we can move forward and schedule an in-home consultation, which is where we visit you in your home and discuss your vision for each room. We also take measurements and pictures of the space, and do everything to collect all necessary information in order to understand the full scope of work so that we can create an accurate and personalized quote.

STEP 3:

After the in-home consultation, we will send a quote for work along with a contract. In order to get started, 50% of the Design Fee must be paid and the contract signed and returned.

Once You Become
a cosmopolitan interiors Client

Our process is divided into two phases: The Design Phase and The Project Management Phase

Phase I: Design

The Design Phase includes:

  • Sourcing items/samples

  • Mood Boards

  • Designing the space

  • Floor plans and spatial planning

  • Design Boards

  • Item specifications

  • Budget Sheets

  • Lighting plans

  • Any meetings for design related items

  • 3D renderings

  • Design revisions, if needed

Steps by Step:

STEP 1:

After receiving inspo images from you, we will begin working on your Mood Board.

STEP 2:

Once we agree that we have captured the right mood and are on track, we will start putting together a Concept Board and all other elements of the Design Proposal mentioned above.

STEP 3:

After making any revisions to the Design Proposal, we will send the final invoice to complete Phase I and a contract to begin Phase II.

Phase II: Project Management

In this step, we create and place all purchase orders, track orders, assess lead times, note any back-orders or discontinued items that may delay the project, and make decisions whether or not to re-select. We will also be drafting custom work orders for our artisans, scheduling installations, coordinating and supervising deliveries, and putting everything together inside your space to bring your design to life.

Steps by Step:

Step 1:

Sign the contract and make initial deposit.

Step 2:

We create purchase orders and begin our first round of purchases. Measurements are confirmed and deposits are paid to vendors.

Step 3:

Project timeline is determined and the second deposit is requested to continue placing orders. Deliveries are received on-site (note: we do not warehouse any items for liability purposes).

Step 4:

We resolve any issues that might arise (with deliveries or product defects). If need be, we will initiate and coordinate returns or exchanges.

Step 5:

Staging & Installation.

Step 6:

Professional Photographs. We also send a guide on how to care for and maintain your custom pieces (indoor and outdoor), as well as send you a few links so that you can leave us a 5-star reviews on some of our major online platforms!
