What’s the difference between Full Service Design and Virtual Interior Design?

Full Service Design means I partner with you from initial concept through final installation. I manage the sourcing, procurement, coordination, and on-site styling to ensure every detail is executed exactly as envisioned. It’s a comprehensive, hands-on experience designed to remove the stress and deliver a fully realized space.

Virtual Interior Design offers the same level of creativity and customization, with added flexibility. You receive a complete, professionally developed design plan tailored to your space, and you oversee the implementation at your own pace. It’s ideal for clients who want expert direction while maintaining control of the execution.

Both options are thoughtfully curated, highly personalized, and designed to elevate your home with intention and style

Can you help me choose paint colors or just refresh one room? 

Absolutely. Whether you’re deciding between paint selections or looking to thoughtfully reimagine a single room, I offer focused support tailored to your needs.

My Designer on Retainer service is ideal for smaller-scale projects such as custom color palettes, space planning guidance, furniture layout refinements, or strategic refreshes. It’s a streamlined, professional solution designed to deliver clarity, direction, and meaningful impact without the commitment of a full-service engagement.

How long does a design project usually take?

Project timelines vary based on the size and complexity of the scope, but below is a general framework:

Virtual Interior Design: Typically completed within 8–12 weeks, depending on the number of spaces and revision rounds.

Full Service Design: Generally range from 4–9+ months. Timelines are influenced by construction schedules, contractor coordination, sourcing lead times, and any custom or specialty elements incorporated into the design.

Following your Consultation Walkthrough, I will provide a more precise timeline tailored to your specific project goals, scope, and overall vision.

Where are you located? Do you only work for clients in that location?

Abode Above Interiors is proudly based in Delaware and serves clients both locally and nationwide.

Full Service Design is currently available to clients in Delaware and select areas of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, and Virginia. For those outside of this service area, I offer Virtual Interior Design throughout the United States, providing the same level of thoughtful, customized design, regardless of location.

How do I schedule an appointment?

To get started, you can schedule a Discovery Call directly through my online calendar at your convenience.

Do we have to use your preferred contractors?

Not at all. While I frequently collaborate with a trusted Preferred Contractor, I am equally open to working alongside any licensed and insured professional you already know and trust.

My priority is assembling a qualified, cohesive team that can execute the design with precision and care. Regardless of who is involved, we will ensure the right expertise is in place to successfully bring your vision to life.

What is your signature design style?

I am naturally drawn to Maximalist, Modern Bohemian, Art Deco, and Classic French influences; however, my true focus is designing spaces that reflect the individuality of each client.

I do not believe in one-size-fits-all design. Every space is thoughtfully curated to align with your lifestyle, aesthetic preferences, and the way you experience your home. The result is a design that feels both elevated and deeply personal.
