1. The Re-Design fee is $375.00 per area. What does "per area" mean?

Answer:
Many homes have open rooms or "areas" not clearly defined by walls. During the re-design consultation we identify your specific area of focus. If, for example, you are focused in your living room but the dining room is connected or directly across the hall, it is possible the "living room/dining room" should become the area for re-design. Other examples are the kitchen/family room or living room/foyer. We will make suggestions regarding how re-design area(s) should be determined but the ultimate area of re-design focus belongs to the client.

 

2. How does your Re-Design fee compare with typical hourly design fees?

Answer:
Usually individual interior design fees range from $75-$150 per hour. We have structured the Re-Design service to get away from seemingly endless hourly rates with little incentive for completion. Our Re-Design fee of $375.00 covers a project-based service with a very specific focus, beginning and ending. When our team leaves your home you have a completed design project.

The Re-Design service includes:

· Home Consultation
· Re-Design Preparation
· Re-Design Day

 

3. If we buy $2,000.00 worth of merchandise from Q. Vincent Interiors for our Re-Design do we still have to pay the $375.00 fee?

Answer:
Yes, you still have to pay the fee. For the Re-Design fee we are not only presenting competitively priced merchandise installed perfectly into your home by an experienced interior design team - we are providing the continuity of staff to manage a complete design project that includes the consulting, designing, selecting, wrapping, loading, transporting, unloading, moving, installing, cleaning up and possibly the returning and re-stocking of merchandise back to our showroom.

 

4. What do I get for the $375 Re-Design fee?

Answer:
The Re-Design fee of $375.00 is a wonderful value when you are informed about what actually takes place during the service. We use your own furnishings and accessories and look at them from a totally different point of view. First, lets discuss the steps involved in a Re-Design:

· Contact Q. Vincent Interiors and inquire about the Re-Design service. We answer your questions and schedule a consultation in your home. During this consultation, we discuss your ideas and goals, review your area(s), take pictures, make notes and answer any questions you may have regarding the Re-Design process.

· Our design staff then works off-site with all the information gathered to plan your re-design. This involves ideas and input from our very creative design staff and includes selecting merchandise and planning the re-arrangement of your existing furnishings and accessories (including things you have stuffed in closets or attics). We load our mobile design center with all the necessary ladders, tools, nails, hangers, etc. to provide a turnkey solution when we arrive for the re-design.

· When we arrive at your door we are ready to get busy! First, we arrange the furniture and art. These are usually the largest and most time consuming items. Next, the larger accessories are placed around the room. Then, we take a step back and evaluate the progress. We fill in any holes and make sure nothing important has been set aside. We clean up as we go.

· Your Re-Design is complete! The memories of your life look new and there is nothing left for you to do but re-enjoy.
 

5. How many people are on the Re-Design "team"?

Answer:
Our commitment is to complete the on-site portion of your Re-Design in a single day. The number of people on the re-design team expands and contracts during the various stages of the Re-Design process. For example, during the consultation there will usually be one or 2 team members. During the planning, documenting and loading stage there will be 3 to 4. During the installation stage there will always be
a minimum of 2, usually 4.
