COACHING & CONSULTATION

If you are not doing a large, protect, just need fresh ideas, and don’t mind doing some serious leg work to make a happen – this is for you. Often I have you email me photos of the space in advance, so I can do wrap my head around the project and then give suggestions and ideas at our appointment. I also design furniture, seating and lighting for large brands and bespoke pieces for individuals. Go here to learn more -> http://rachelblindauer.com/freelance-furniture-seating-lighting-design/

Complimentary phone conversation in advance

FULL SERVICE INTERIOR DESIGN

As we lead you through the process, you will benefit from our full depth of product and interiors knowledge. Rachel Blindauer’s connections in the furniture, lighting, textile, and decorative accessories industries provide you with the best products and price.

COLOR CONSULTATION

Send a photo of the space or building in advance so I can come mentally prepared. Then I bring all of the paint color samples with me to the site. If the perfect color does not exist, I custom make a sample can of that color for you. I also render the space to help you visualize it if necessary.

Typically 1-5 Hours
