Working with the studio

Four ways
to work with us.

Full residential design is the heart of the practice — but the studio also takes on single rooms, remote e-design packages, and a small number of commissioned originals each quarter. The scope is different. The standards aren't.

Projects per year
8–10 residences
Typical lead time
3–6 months out

Clients with an otherwise-functional home and one room that's holding the rest back.

What's included
  • One in-home visit
  • Furniture + lighting plan
  • Full sourcing list with quantities & links
  • Fabric + wallpaper edits

E-design package
03

E-design package

Concept board, floor plan, shopping list, and a 3D rendering of the proposed room — you execute. Fully remote. A way to work with the studio at a fraction of the investment.

For

Out-of-region clients, hands-on homeowners, or anyone wanting a clear plan to execute on their own timeline.

What's included
  • 60-minute discovery call
  • Moodboard + style direction
  • Dimensioned floor plan
  • One 3D rendering of the proposed room
  • Product list with links + sizes

Commissioned painting
04

Commissioned painting

An original work for a specific wall, conversation, or feeling. Three commissions per quarter — studio takes the brief, paints, and delivers framed and ready to hang.

For

Past clients and patrons who want a piece made specifically for their home rather than chosen from the shop.

What's included
  • Brief + reference call
  • Two color/composition studies
  • One round of revisions on studies
  • Finished painting on canvas or panel
  • Frame consultation
  • White-glove delivery (US continental)
Timeline
3–6 weeks

How a project unfolds

From first email
to last piece installed.

Every engagement follows roughly the same six-step rhythm — whether it's a single room or a full residence. Below is what to expect at each step.

  1. 01

    Inquire

    A short form on the contact page — a few questions about the project, the home, and what's drawing you to the studio. Read by Alexandra personally.

  2. 02

    Conversation

    If the brief feels right on both sides, we set up a 45-minute call. No fee. Comes back with whether the studio is the right fit, an honest read on scope, and what a working engagement could look like.

  3. 03

    Proposal

    Written proposal with scope, timeline, deliverables, design fee, and an estimated furnishings budget range. Either signed and a deposit is sent, or the conversation ends warmly.

  4. 04

    Design

    Programming, plans, sourcing, presentations. Two presentation rounds with revisions. Clients see drawings, fabrics, finishes, and a full furniture schedule before anything is ordered.

  5. 05

    Install

    Procurement, deliveries managed by the studio, on-site direction during install week. Styling day at the end — every shelf, every surface, every wall.

  6. 06

    Handoff

    Punch list, walk-through, care guide for finishes and upholstery, and a binder with every product, vendor and contact used on the project. The room is yours.

Frequently asked

The practical questions,
answered.

Where does the studio work? +
Primarily Greenville, Wilmington, the Main Line, and the Brandywine Valley. New York and Hudson Valley projects considered case by case. International clients welcome via the e-design package.
Do you work with our contractor or architect? +
Yes — and often early. The studio has a short list of trade partners (plasterers, millworkers, upholsterers) it works with on most projects, but is happy to coordinate with your existing team.
How are furnishings billed? +
At trade cost plus a transparent markup, shown on every line of every invoice. No hidden margins, no commissions from vendors. The studio's compensation is the design fee — the markup covers procurement, freight management, and receiving.
What's not included in a residential project? +
Architecture, structural work, landscape design, electrical or plumbing rough-in, and anything requiring a licensed trade. The studio coordinates with those teams but does not perform that work.
How far in advance should we reach out? +
For full residential projects: three to six months ahead of when you want design to start. Single-room and e-design have shorter lead times — usually four to eight weeks.
Can we buy the prints in the shop with our project? +
Of course. Existing print editions can be added to any project at standard pricing. Original commissions are billed separately under the Commissioned Painting service.

Working together

If something here
sounds like your house —

Inquiries open year-round. The studio reviews submissions weekly and replies personally within five business days. Most fall projects book a season ahead, so the earlier the conversation starts, the better.
