FULL SERVICE DESIGN
Our full service process takes a project from conception through completion with LAVA leading the design services, procuring all goods, and overseeing the production for the project. We work closely alongside Architects and General Contractors, as well as other Consultants to fully realize custom interiors.
Our approach is a proprietary process that is based in the traditional phases of Interior Design and Architecture working through Conceptual and Schematic Design, with the addition of bespoke services to fully engage the client’s aesthetic, like personalized in-person sourcing trips to trade-only vendors. At the culmination of the process, the project will be styled and professionally photographed with the opportunity to be published.
An in person consultation is a prerequisite for full service design projects.

DESIGN A LA CARTE CONSULTING
When full service isn’t desired but an extended period of time is required to help advance project work, a la carte allows our clients to lead the scope and needs. Blocks of time are purchased and the type of work can include site visits, shopping trips, sourcing, drafting, renderings, and most typical full service work but without a formal process. Should sourcing be requested, vendors will be limited to retail options as purchasing and procurement is excluded for consulting, therefore trade-only and custom sourcing will not be suggested.

IN PERSON CONSULTATION
In-person consultations take place on site, where Meg brings her expertise and trained eye into your space to discuss anything design related face to face. She’ll advise on renovation ideas, furniture plan layouts, potential color palettes, lighting direction, potential opportunities or challenges for design based on the architecture, and even meet with your contractors to provide guidance from general concepts to design details.
The homeowner will lead the consultation in asking Meg any questions that need an Interior Designer’s professional advice. The consultation is contained to the two hours scheduled, and is a prerequisite for all full-service projects. Following the consultation, a customized Proposal is developed outlining the scope, budget, and timeline should the client want to continue with our full-service design services.
