The design takes shape through space planning, curated materials, colour palettes, and detailed design concepts that create a clear direction for your project.

Questions & Answers About Our Full-Service Interior Design
What does full-service interior design include?
Full-service interior design brings the design decisions and their implementation under one comprehensive plan. Ramsey Design establishes how your layouts, permanent finishes, furnishings and decorative details will relate, then manages and coordinates the agreed work through completion.
Your proposal defines the rooms involved, the interior design services included and the level of support you will receive. You review the design and approve selections at agreed stages, with a clear point of contact for questions and decisions.
What types of projects are best suited to full-service interior design?
Whole-home interior design, a main-floor renovation or furnishing a new home can benefit from full-service support when decisions in one room affect the next. For example, kitchen cabinetry, adjoining living-room furniture and lighting need to relate in scale, materials and style. Planning them together establishes a consistent direction before purchases and construction begin.
The choice also depends on how involved you want to be. Ramsey Design can develop the design, research furniture and finishes, and manage and coordinate installation through completion. We can confirm the appropriate scope during your consultation.
What is the difference between interior decorating and interior design?
Interior decorating brings a room together through a design that blends furniture, area rugs, window treatments, paint colours, artwork and accessories. It considers how colours relate, how fabrics and materials complement one another, and how the scale and placement of each piece create a balanced design.
Interior design considers how the space itself can be reconfigured to improve function, flow and the overall home design. This might include relocating a kitchen or bathroom, moving plumbing, updating electrical plans for better lighting, adjusting a staircase or opening up railings to improve sightlines. These changes can create an open floor plan that offers the space and flow of a modern home.
Can you coordinate furniture, custom window treatments and final styling?
Yes. Furniture selection and custom window treatments are planned together so their dimensions, fabrics and finishes complement the room. We consider how you sit and move through the space, how much privacy and light control you need, and which existing furnishings you want to retain.
For custom drapery, decisions include fabric, lining, fullness, hardware and mounting height. Furniture and area rugs are selected to suit the room’s proportions and layout. Before ordering, we present the proposed selections for approval and coordinate supplier details and installation within the agreed scope. Final styling places artwork and accessories in relation to the completed furnishings, giving your home interior design a considered finish.
How much does full-service interior design cost?
Full-service interior design fees depend on the size of your home, the rooms involved, the complexity of the design and the level of management and coordination required. For a project combining renovation design, interior decorating and final styling, we define the complete scope for your approval.
During your consultation, Ramsey Design reviews your goals, priorities and budget to establish the appropriate scope. We then confirm the proposed design fees and what is included before you commit to the next stage. Furniture, materials, trades and installation costs are considered separately from professional design fees, giving you a clearer picture of the overall investment.
