Once you decide to work with The Design Firm, we make the process seamless from start to finish.
We begin with a visit to our showroom when possible. During this meeting, we discuss your design needs, style preferences, timeline, and budget, and review any inspiration photos you may have. We also show you examples of our design presentations and drawings and explain our design process in detail, so you have a clear understanding of what to expect moving forward.
Once you’re ready to proceed, we collect a design retainer to begin your project and schedule your in-home meeting, where our design team gets to know you, your space, and your goals in more depth. We review your floor plan, discuss your style, color palette, and functional needs, and take any necessary measurements and photos.
Within approximately three weeks, of our visit to your home we invite to our showroom for your design presentation — a complete, beautifully drawn plan that includes layouts, renderings, selections, and pricing for every item in your design.
After reviewing and making any adjustments, we collect a 75% deposit to begin ordering your selections. Once all items have arrived in our warehouse, we collect the remaining 25% and schedule your installation. Our professional installation team delivers, installs, and styles every detail so your space is fully finished and ready to enjoy the same day.

A full specifications list for each selection, including product details
Flooring layout drawings and conceptual CAD drawings showing design intent
Detailed elevations when needed to communicate every design element to your contractor
We work closely with your builder or contractor to answer any question to ensure all documentation is clear, accurate, and ready for seamless installation — helping your remodel run smoothly from concept to completion.Item description

Absolutely. Building a home comes with hundreds of design decisions — and we help make that process organized, informed, and stress-free.
We guide you through all the interior and exterior selections needed for your new custom home, including flooring, countertops, cabinetry, lighting, plumbing, paint colors, tile, and finishes. Every choice is thoughtfully coordinated to ensure your home feels beautiful, cohesive, and custom-designed from day one.
After all selections are made, we create a complete design packet for your builder. This includes finish schedules, specification sheets, and detailed documentation so your builder and trades have a clear understanding of every selection.
For semi-custom homes, we can also accompany you to the builder’s design center to help you make the best choices from the options available to you.
We complete every part of this process in a timely manner, ensuring there are no construction delays due to incomplete or missing selections. Our goal is to make your building experience smooth, efficient, and beautifully executed.

That’s one of the hardest questions to answer — because every project is different. Many factors affect a design budget, including the size of the space, the scope of work, and the style you’re drawn to.
It’s important that we have a clear understanding of your budget from the beginning so we can design and make selections that work within it as closely as possible. We tailor each design plan to fit your space, needs, and investment level, while ensuring the budget allows for all the key items that bring the design to life.
After we’ve had the opportunity to visit your home and understand the scope of work, we can provide a rough estimate to help you plan your investment.
Our goal is always to maximize the impact of your budget while maintaining the highest level of design quality and attention to detail.Item description

Yes. We offer virtual design consultations and presentations for clients who live outside the Houston area or prefer remote collaboration. You’ll receive the same personalized design experience, detailed plans, and expert guidance, all delivered digitally.
However, whenever possible, we highly recommend an in-person presentation so you can experience the fabrics, rugs, colors, and textures firsthand. Seeing and touching these elements in person allows you to better appreciate the quality, scale, and subtle nuances that make each design truly exceptional.
