3. SHOPPING TRIP
A one-day shopping trip with me is a popular service and a great way to get a start on your design project. This may allow us to visit various trade showrooms that are not available to the general public. We can also visit some of my favorite vendors with whom I have established relationships. Theses trips can be used for shopping for furniture, accessories or art, or the fixtures and materials needed for any home remodel.
