• Navigating Your Interior Design Journey with Havard Cooper Architect

  Are you contemplating an interior design project but feel uncertain about the process? Seeking more insights into what to expect? This guide aims to demystify the process and answer your queries.

• Initiating Your Design Adventure At Havard Cooper Architect, our initial step is to collaborate with our clients, providing a clear roadmap of the journey ahead. Our role is to navigate you through the design process, establishing a framework that enables you to make informed decisions. Before any payment is exchanged we recommend a Discovery Call, as we want to be certain we’re the right fit for eachother.

• Balancing Guidance and Autonomy Our team expertly balances providing guidance with granting you the freedom to express your vision, all while keeping the overarching aesthetic in focus. Our ultimate aim is to ensure the final design is cohesive and the journey is a delightful experience for you.

• Design Packages and Meetings Our design framework is structured around design packages presented in our meetings. These packages systematically organize and convey essential elements for your review and approval, encompassing everything from detailed renders to material samples. This approach helps in focusing on specific aspects of the project without feeling overwhelmed.

• Project Kickoff Before commencing a project, we engage in discussions about your home needs and aesthetic preferences. This involves sharing inspirations and aligning visions with our design style. Once a mutual fit is confirmed, and budgets are agreed upon, we formalize our partnership.

• First Meeting: Vision and Planning In our initial meeting, after the Discovery Call we introduce a design inspiration package reflecting our preliminary discussions, focusing on overarching concepts, mood, color schemes, and aesthetics. We also discuss space planning strategies, considering your lifestyle and future aspirations for your home.

• Subsequent Meetings: Room by Room Approach In later meetings, we break down the project room by room, presenting detailed plans, inspiration images, and specific design elements for each space. This step-by-step process culminates in 3D modeling and rendering, bringing the design to life.

• 3D Room Design: Bringing Visions to Reality We start with key spaces, gradually moving to secondary areas. Our realistic renderings showcase materials, lighting, and textures, offering a valuable tool for informed decision-making, thus minimizing changes and saving costs.

• FF&E and Material Selection Material selection is integral to our process. We present large samples on-site to appreciate their look in natural lighting. Each material and fixture is meticulously selected and organized into design packages for your approval.

• Art and Sculpture Integration Art and sculptures play a crucial role in our designs. We provide a plan for these elements, aiding in selection or coordination with art consultants.

• Designing Ceilings and Lighting Lighting design is a key focus, where we integrate various layers of lighting to suit each space. Working with skilled lighting designers, we ensure that every aspect, from fixture selection to lighting levels, harmonizes with the overall design.

• Your Unique Design Expression While the outlined steps provide a general framework, each project is unique, and we tailor our process accordingly. Our goal is to create a space that resonates with your personality and lifestyle.
