Dearest Friends,
Welcome to the inaugural posts for the Curated Perspectives blog! I’m thrilled to have you join us on this exciting journey of turning houses into homes that are personalized sanctuaries. As the founder and principal designer of Atelier Interiors, I’m passionate about the transformative power of great design and the profound impact it can have on your daily life.
Recently we’ve had a plethora of project inquiries where we are conversating right at the very inception of a client’s project. The best place to be! Let’s talk about the brilliance of assembling, your dream team, early in the project. I call this the process of, “getting everyone in on the ground floor.” No, I don’t mean physically (although that’s important, too!). I’m referring to the crucial early stages of your home-building or remodeling project. You see, the foundation of any successful endeavor starts long before the foundation is poured or the first wall is knocked down. It begins with assembling a stellar team and, of course, bringing your interior designer (that’s us!) into the picture as soon as possible.
Imagine you’re embarking on a grand adventure. You wouldn’t set sail without a map or a trusty crew, right? The same principle applies to designing your dream home. By involving a designer from the outset—when you’re still browsing sites, contemplating a remodel, or initiating talks with your realtor, architect, and builder—you ensure that every step forward is aligned with your vision, needs, and budget.
Our role as designers is to act as your navigators, deciphering the complex coordinates of your desires and translating them into a cohesive, beautiful reality. We help clarify your main needs, pinpoint your priorities, and establish your unique design aesthetic. From budgeting to ensuring that the project’s true North remains unwavering, we are your steadfast partners in this journey. As team players, we work in harmony with architects, builders, and realtors. Together, we form a dynamic ensemble, each bringing our expertise to the table to ensure your project not only meets but exceeds your expectations. An early assembly of your dream-building team ensures a more streamlined and enjoyable process. After all, no one likes last-minute changes or unexpected costs. As a team, we can anticipate challenges and craft solutions before they become stumbling blocks. This proactive approach saves time, money, and a few (okay, maybe more than a few) headaches.
This quarter we’ve featured Kelly Ferguson of Ferguson Real Estate Consulting, an outstanding relator, who has terrific insight into the luxury housing market. Stay tuned next quarter for the Architect’s perspective, and then insight from a master builder. Embarking on a home-building or remodeling journey is a significant undertaking, but with the right team by your side, it can also be a thrilling adventure! By getting in on the ground floor, you set the stage for a project that’s as enjoyable as it is successful. So, here’s to new beginnings, beautiful designs, and the exciting path ahead!
Warmest regards,
Founder & Principal Designer
