Interior Designers can Work within your Budget
How much does an interior designer cost? Although the total cost varies depending on the designers’ flat fee, number of hours, and hourly rates, we want to assure you that an interior design project does not need to break the bank. When hiring an interior designer, you’ll want to select one that takes the time to sit down with you and understand your goals, needs, and tastes, all while respecting your budget to curate a space you can savour. Interior design is a collaborative and creative experience to clarify your vision and offer what matches your price range.
2. Pre-Planning Can Save You Money by Avoiding Mistakes
The best time to sit down with a designer is before your construction phase. We will walk through your building plans with you and provide recommendations based on the space and features of each room. The last thing you want is to begin construction and to realize you underestimated the amount of space and your furniture items won’t fit or missed important details like electrical outlet placements or utilizing the space to allow for creative storage solutions.
Every home is unique and comes with its own set of challenges. Interior designers know this and will take the time to follow a systematic design process. When you work with Savori Spaces, this includes 3D design renderings with represented finishes and thorough space planning for how you can allocate and arrange furniture based on how you will live, work and play in each room.
Leave ample time for this pre-planning phase. Thinking of a renovation in the spring? Pre plan in the fall of the previous year. The last thing you want to be doing is making decisions under stress or pressure.

Exploring all the options and what if’s that come with building or renovating.
3. Timeless Choices Means You’ll Love Your Home Longer
You deserve a living space that encapsulates your personal taste. Redesigning with generic finishes that your neighbor already used or off the shelf at a big box store isn’t going to give you that personalized feeling. Although it may satisfy you temporarily, you’re more likely to want to do a complete overhaul and spend more money to switch out finishes and furniture a few years later as the construction of those items failed to stand the test of time or didn’t coincide with your taste profile.
On the other hand, when you work with interior designers, we work alongside you, recommending finishes based on the space, your personality and what you are craving. We factor in quality finishes in combination with budget friendly options depending on the application. Same goes for furniture, we suggest better quality curated pieces for high-use areas like the family room and extending your budget in other areas like a front entry or lightly used den. From start to finish, we help ensure that you get exactly what you want the first time with problem-solving, sourcing and creative solutions along the way.

By making recommendations for function, storage allocation, furniture arrangements, and interior selections that are best suited for your budget and goals.

For instance, if you’re considering selling your home in the future, a designer will take in consideration your neighborhood, potential buyers and suggest finishes that will ideally add value you your list price. It doesn’t have to be extensive, the suggestions can be to make the space feel bigger, increase flow through creative space planning and ways to depersonalize for the sale.
