GOOD DESIGN IS NOT EXPENSIVE

 

BAD DESIGN IS!

 

Is one thing to run around town, for weeks on end, going to various furniture stores and tirelessly finally selecting a sofa, chairs, coffee table, bedroom furniture set, etc., have them all delivered to your house and hope that it all flows together when situated; that it somehow looks finished, and in turn, feel homey.  It is an entirely different endeavor to design a gorgeous, multi-layered plush home for your personal and familial enjoyment for years to come. 

​

At K Lilia Interior Design, we strive to use our talents, creativity, and expertise to contribute to our clients' lives positively. We do this by designing the home of their dreams, one that feels great, fulfills all your needs and desires, and is eminently functional.

Our goal is simple... to make the design-build process enjoyable and supportive. Our approach is turn-key, where we create a full design plan, including all materials and furnishings. We bring the products to you. We manage the purchasing, receiving, storage, white glove delivery, and installation. You don't have to lift a finger!

​

DISCOVER HOW WE WORK

When you hire K Lilia Interior Design, you can rest assured that we administer a thorough design process encompassing 14 distinct strategical phases. 

INITIAL
IN-HOME
CONSULT

01

We meet with you in your home for a 2-hours intensive pow-wow session. We walk through your home, define your design style, and discuss your goals. We provide you with actionable recommendations for a design plan for your space(s) during our time together. During the consult, we present the BEST DESIGN creative ideas and solutions possible based on the physical particulars of your home, our assessment of your needs and family necessities, personal values, and lifestyle. Towards the end of the consultation appointment, we briefly review the Fee Proposal document.

02

THE FEE PROPOSAL

Within 3-5 business days from the date of your in-home consultation, we develop the Fee Proposal. This proposal spells out the comprehensive scope of work for the entire project, timeline,  and the estimated design fee to complete the job.  The Fee Proposal is not the Design Plan or Design Presentation. 

03

HOME

INTERIOR

SURVEY DAY

After the Fee Proposal is signed, we conduct a site visit to perform measurements and detailed photographing of your home. This appointment incorporates planning and brainstorming with all the tradespeople who will be involved in your project.

DESIGN

CONCEPT & SOURCING

 

04

We are converting your raw ideas and dreams into a concrete plan of action. Next, we prepare your floor plans, color schemes, contractors' estimates, and 3D renderings. Principally, we source, select, and price 100 percent of the items required to complete your project. For us to thoroughly complete this phase of the design process and satisfy your every wish, this phase can last about 6-10 weeks from "Home Interior Survey Day."

05

DESIGN

PROPOSAL

We meet with you and review in detail all various elements of the hand-crafted bespoke design plan for your home. We show you all drawings, 3D renderings, samples such as stones, tiles, carpet, hardware, all fabrics, all images of each furnishing item for consideration, all estimates, and the respective backup documentation from all professional trades.  In the Design Presentation, you see room by room how each furniture and fabric, etc., tell your unique story and how everything flows so superbly and beautifully.

INITIATION

OF BUILDING/

REMODEL

After the Final Design Presentation Meeting, we begin placing orders for all furniture items, furnishings, materials, and design furnishings.  We gather lead times from all products and trades to build your installation calendar. Additionally, our office coordinates schedules for all tradespeople involved in your project.

BUDGET

CHECK-IN

07

Suppose there are any changes requested to the original work orders involved for your project. In that case, we must schedule a mid-project review meeting. We discuss the current statuses of orders, document any requested revisions, and adjustments to budgets.

08

CONTINUE

BUILDING/

REMODEL

PROCESS

Our designers conduct various site visits to ensure your project is running on time and within budget. We are passionate about your ultimate satisfaction with the design process and, consequently, the deliverables. That's why, on occasions, we will ask you to join in on the on-site performance checks. If there are any performance issues, we want you to hear firsthand the specificities surrounding those issues from the trade professionals.

09

TRACK 

ORDERS

&

RECEIVE

GOODS

 

 

Tracking orders and receiving the items go in tandem with phase eight of the design process. We, at K Lilia Interior Design, provide you with a turn-key design experience.  The key to delivering this experience is the receipt of all your furniture items at our warehouse. The warehouse inspects for damages, labels the things accordingly, and reserves those items for storage until Reveal Day. If an item is damaged, we file a claim with the vendor or process a reorder.  Suppose there's an item that looks in danger of a significant delay that will negatively impact the completion of your home project. In that case, we will then make considerations of replacing the item.

 FURNITURE INSTALL & STYLING

10

All your stored furniture items and styling accessories are delivered all at once in an organized, streamlined fashion. Installation can last 1 to 7 business days, depending on the project size. We install furniture, style, and accessorize your home to give you a beautiful, multi-layered space.

11

REVEAL

DAY

You excitedly return to the house and walk into your new majestically designed space. It is love-at-first-sight—oooohhh la la. We walk you room-by-room and highlight the unique features of all your beautiful pieces. Finally, you get to look, feel and experience all the gorgeous layers of your dream home. It's celebration time.

12

SECOND LOOK 

Our firm prides itself on governing our projects with impeccable ethics, super dedicated integrity, and relentless professionalism to deliver what we say we will, when we say we will, and how we say we will. We promise to deliver gratifying results. That is why we give our installations, a second look. After Reveal Day, our firm lightly re-tours your newly designed space to ensure that all of the i's are dotted, and t's crossed for all your furnishings.

CREATIVE
SQUARE-AWAY

If any deficiencies are discovered during the tour, we document them and submit them to the appropriate trade professional or vendor. Immediately, our firm executes our plan to schedule and track the status of the corrective measures. You don't have to hunt us down for information. We are on top of it. You being over the moon with your newly multi-faceted finished space is our top priority.

14

PROJECT
CLOSURE 

After installation is completed, we conduct a final meeting to make sure you are genuinely satisfied with your project.  We invite you to provide us with candid feedback and reviews of your experience with your design project. Lastly, we schedule our photographer to capture professional images of your new fabulously designed space.
