Virtual interior design consultations, or as we like to call them, “Discuss With A Designer” Consultations, have truly transformed the way we approach design. Gone are the days when you had to schedule long in-person meetings. Now, you can work with us from the comfort of your own home—or honestly, from anywhere! This flexibility is especially great for those with busy schedules, people who live far from us, or anyone who just prefers a more relaxed, convenient way to approach design.
At Brandiwine Interior Design, we’ve embraced the power of technology to stay connected with clients, no matter where they are. Whether you're just around the corner in Vancouver, WA, or halfway across the country, we’re here to help you bring your design ideas to life, virtually. Our virtual consultations are all about making you feel comfortable and supported through every step of the design process. Here’s a look at what you can expect when you book a “Discuss With A Designer” session with us:
Step 1: Booking Your Virtual Consultation
Booking a virtual consultation with us is simple and easy. Here’s how we can get started:
Pick Your Time: Head to our online booking system and choose a time for your 60-minute “Discuss With A Designer” session. We’ll set aside time to get to know your project in detail and listen to your vision.
Payment and Agreement: Once you’ve booked, we’ll ask for payment of the consultation fee ($250) and have you sign a contract that outlines how we’ll work together. This helps us create clear expectations so we’re all on the same page.
Fill Out the Intake Form: This form gives us insight into your project before we meet
and ensures we’re prepared to dive into meaningful discussions. We’ll ask for:
Your name, email, phone number, and project address
Your spouse or partner’s info (if applicable)
A bit about why you’re reaching out and what you hope to achieve in our time together
Any important topics (like resale value, damage repair, or changing how the space will be used)
Your budget (excluding design fees) to help us guide you in the right direction
Your project timeline, including key dates like design completion or construction milestones
We gather this information so we can start the conversation with a clear understanding of your needs, ensuring that our time together is as productive and valuable as possible.
Step 2: Preparing for Your Virtual Meeting
Once we have your intake form, we begin preparing for our meeting together:
Review and Confirmation: Our Project Manager will review your intake form, ensuring everything is in order for our meeting. If we need anything else, we’ll reach out to you ahead of time.
Setting Up the Project: Our Project Manager will set up a project in our system with all the details, documents, and links we’ll need for the session. You’ll receive calendar invites with links to make sure everything runs smoothly.
Step 3: Your Virtual Consultation (60 Minutes)
Here comes the fun part—the actual consultation! Here’s how it will go:
Real-Time Discussion: During our 60-minute session, we’ll take the time to really talk about your project. This is where we can explore your ideas, ask questions, and share feedback. Whether we’re discussing layout, colors, furniture, or how to make your space more functional, we’ll focus on what matters most to you.
Documentation and Notes: Throughout our meeting, we’ll take detailed notes and record the session. These notes will serve as a guide for both of us moving forward, so you’ll have a comprehensive summary of everything we discussed. Afterward, we’ll send you the recording along with our notes and any other helpful information.
Step 4: Post-Consultation Follow-Up
We’re committed to making sure you feel supported even after our meeting is over. Here’s how we follow up:
Review of Key Takeaways: Our Project Manager will go over the meeting notes and recording, summarizing key takeaways and next steps. We want to make sure you have a clear plan for moving forward.
Final Email: You’ll receive a follow-up email with a link to the meeting recording, the key takeaways, and any resources we think might be helpful to you. It’s our way of making sure you have everything you need to keep progressing with your project.
