5 Steps to

Beautiful Artistic Design

Every great plan begins with a step and ends with one.

Step 1. Let's Chat!

During our initial chat I want to get a feel for your project needs. A more in-depth understanding of what you are looking for you’ll provide to me in our “Optimize your Space” questionnaire. Be as detailed as you like! No such thing as TMI during the assessment process!  

Step 2. Time to meet!

Setting up your consultation is the next step. While I do offer video consultations, the benefits of a face to face meeting between you, your space, and I can not be replaced.   I recommend in person consultations for all clients especially large scale renovations and commercial spaces

Step 3. Needs, Wants, & Budget.

During the consultation process, we will cover 3 major points; your needs, wants, and budget.  It is very important to clearly set each one of these to ensure both you and I are on the same page before moving forward with a design plan.  Making sure my clients expectations can be realistically met is my number one priotirty. 

Step 4. Lay it out!

Now we can start to have a little fun!  After your consult, if we have established that DKA can meet your interior needs, we always want to layout a good plan.  A well defined plan allows you, the client, to see my vision for your space in the third dimension. For wall treatment and art commissions, a sample of the piece (colors, materials, texture, etc) will be created and presented before production begins.  For decor and design clients, a mood board with optional digital rendering with accompanying tear sheets that highlight materials, fixtures, furnishings, and other design elements will be provided prior to your space's renovation.  This ensures that you are happy with the vision DKA has for your home, business, or masterpiece. 

Step 5. Time to Create!

So you love your render or product sample and are ready to move forward? Great! Let's create!  Our team will handle your entire project from start to finish.  DKA will set a timeline for the work, any payment schedules, and provide all necessary contractors for each phase of your project.  Communication is huge, so prepare to be informed.  We like to take the guesswork out of what comes next for our clients by establishing open and clear forms of communications throughout your project.   So sit back and enjoy the process!
