Smart Surroundings LLCAndrea Osterkorn Interior Redesigner




 

Q. What is Interior Redesign?  Is it different than Interior Design?

A.  Redesign is a fast, simple way to give your home or office a bold new look with enhanced functionality using your existing furniture, art and accessories.  Although many of the elements used in Interior Redesign may be the same as used in traditional Design, Redesign does not tackle structural changes to your home. Additionally, Redesign honors your favorite items so that they are well integrated in your new surroundings.
 

Q. How much does Redesign cost?

A.  Each Redesign has its own unique needs and desired outcome, therefore, it is best to contact us to obtain a quote.  On average, a single room will take 4 hours and cost $600 to transform.
 

Q. How much say do I have in the Redesign process?

A.  It’s all about YOU!  Although we bring our creative eye and experience to the process, Redesign is all about helping make your favorite items shine while improving the functionality you demand.  First, our process includes an in-depth interview so that we have a thorough understanding of your needs, wants and expectations.  Additionally, we will discuss a list of possible actions so that you are well informed of what could be done during the Redesign and so that your specific desires are honored.
 

Q. Do I need to be home for the Redesign?

A.  We prefer that you are not home for the Redesign.  Often, the surroundings will look worse before they come together and WOW you.  Additionally, we highly recommend that your pets are placed in a safe haven to avoid any mishaps while we work.
 

Q. Will you clean the room too?

A.  We do not clean the room.  In fact, we ask that you clean and de-clutter the room in advance of our arrival as well as provide us with a space (outside of the one being redesigned) where we can place unused items for you to put away at a later time.  When we move large furniture pieces, we do try to vacuum before the final placement if you have put your cleaner out for us. 
 

Q. What can I expect from a Staging consultation?

A.  We will walk through each room with you and provide you with a written list of suggestions for making your house more desirable to a broader range of potential buyers.  Additionally, if there is any time left over in our 2 hour consultation, we will stage the most important room to get it ready for sale.
 

Q. Are Gift Certificates available?

A.  YES!  Just contact us and we will be happy to provide gift certificates for any amount over $50.
 

Q. I love the concept of Interior Redesign, but my spouse is skeptical.  Can you help me convince him / her?

A.  Very often, there is something that is not working for someone in the house.  Redesign solves those issues.  Maybe it’s a favorite chair that she’s not used because it does not fit in front of the fireplace where she likes to be or window treatments that look like they were moved (and maybe they were!) from the college dorm that he can’t stand another day – whatever the issue, Redesign can help.  Also, we are experts at helping to finally showcase those favorite heirlooms or memorabilia that have been in the closet all these years.

Q. I want to offer your services as a benefit for my employees.  Can I get a discount?

A.  Because each situation is unique, give us a call and we will do our best to meet your needs.
