Design projects can feel overwhelming when you don’t know what to expect. Rose’s process is structured to keep things clear at every stage — so you always know where you are, what’s happening next, and what decisions need your input.
It Starts With a Conversation
Before any design work begins, Rose schedules a 30-minute virtual discovery call. This isn’t a sales pitch. It’s a two-way conversation where you learn about Rose’s process, and Rose learns about your project — what the space looks like now, what you want it to become, and what your budget accommodates.
If the project is a good fit, the next step is an in-person site visit. Rose measures the space, photographs it, documents existing conditions, and starts forming initial ideas. The deposit for this visit is applied toward your final invoice.
Rose develops the creative direction for your space. This includes a site visit, scope of work documentation, and concept presentations with mood boards and reference imagery. You’ll discuss goals, aesthetic preferences, and functional needs. At the end of this phase, you and Rose are aligned on where the project is headed.
02
schematic design
This is where the layout takes physical shape. Rose creates detailed floor plans and 3D renderings showing furniture placement, relationships, and traffic flow. Feedback is built into this phase — revisions happen here, not after purchasing starts.
03
design development
Every material and product gets specified. Fabrics, tiles, countertop materials, paint colors, lighting fixtures, and furniture. Rose presents selections with samples, product spec sheets, and pricing. You approve each selection before orders are placed. Nothing ships without your sign-off.
04
installation
Rose handles ordering, delivery scheduling, and coordination with contractors. On installation day, she’s on-site to direct furniture placement, styling, and final adjustments. You walk into a finished space — not a room full of boxes waiting to be arranged.
The Process
Event Creative Direction
Events follow a similar creative arc but on a compressed timeline. The minimum planning window is three months — more complex productions may require six months or longer.
discovery & vision
30-minute call focused on event type, scale, venue, guest count, budget, and the feeling you want to create.
conceptual design
Creative direction, color palette, mood boards, and spatial layout. Rose presents a visual concept so you can see the event before it exists.
design development
Vendor recommendations, rental selections, floral direction, signage — every element specified and approved.
day-of execution
On-site from setup through breakdown. Managing vendor arrivals, overseeing installation, handling live adjustments. You show up as a guest at your own event.
Realistic Timelines
interior design projects
3 – 8+ months
Planning through installation, depending on scope. A single-room refresh moves faster than a full-home renovation. Rose provides a project-specific timeline during the schematic design phase.
event creative direction
3 + months
Weddings and large-scale celebrations typically need a minimum of 3 months for proper sourcing, venue coordination, and vendor management.
