How it works
Stressed about how mentally and physically messy your design project might be? Don’t be.
Our priority is making sure you feel important and inspired every step of the way … without getting grey hairs worrying whether everything is going to work out. ‘Cause, with us here, not only is the final product is going to blow your mind and knock your socks off, but you’ll actually enjoy every moment of the experience, too!
Here’s how it’ll go down.
step one
The Design Therapy Sesh & Design Consultation
If you’re considering ASR as your go-to design gang (great taste!), your first step is to book in for your free 30-minute Design Therapy Sesh. We’ll get to know each other a little better – lucky us! – and uncover the problems and potential with your current home.
From here (and if our stars are aligned), we’ll schedule in a two-hour in-person meeting at your home or office. Don’t worry – the time will fly, and we’ll unlock juicy details like:
-
The scope of your project (aka what we’re working on)
-
The goals for your space (aka what you want done)
-
Your desired aesthetics (aka how you want your space to look)
-
Your functionality requirements (aka how you want to live in your space)
-
Our timeline (aka what time frame we’re working with)
-
Your budget (aka your overarching investment)
After our consultation, we’ll head back to the office to gush about how great you are and brew some coffee while we prepare your custom proposal. This proposal will contain everything we’ve discussed, plus the details of how we will collaborate.
Once you’ve approved your proposal and paid your deposit, you’ll officially be part of the ASR Design Gang and we’ll join forces to bring your project to life!
step two
Busting the budget bogeyman
We know you might not think talking numbers is the most fun-filled part of the journey, but here at ASR we love diving into the digits to problem-solve how to best bring your space to life. We’ll refine your initial investment budget and collect quotes from specific trade professionals to develop a complete
step Three
Planning makes perfect
Next, we dive into planning your dream space by pulling together:
-
Design concept boards (eep – you’re gonna get goosebumps!)
-
Floor plans
-
Selections and samples for your lighting, furniture and finishes (only the best of the best, naturally)
-
A preliminary timeline
It’s basically as fun as wedding planning (or at least cake tasting!), but better, ‘cause all you’ve gotta do is relax and let us do the hard work for you.
step four
Done-for-you procurement
Get in, gorgeous. We’re going shopping! Okay, not really. You can stay at home or go on a vacay. We’re going to walk the mall miles and round up the contractors for you. This is when we get super pedantic about our planning to ensure everything arrives in accordance with the construction timeline (so you don’t have a plumber without a sink to work on!)
During this time, we’ll:
-
Purchase all items for your space
-
Track orders + asses lead times
-
Take care of quality control of the items arriving
-
Oversee returns or exchanges as needed
-
Work directly with our vendors to prepare for the construction stage
step five
Pain-free project management
The drama is in the details – which is why we’re here to take over the big and little details of designing (and bringing to life!) your dream home. We’ll cheerfully collaborate with builders, vendors and fabricators to ensure your design details are well-crafted and well-executed.
Then, we’ll be your fierce protectors during the construction stage to troubleshoot any plot-twists that pop up and keep your project humming along according to plan. ‘Cause we know construction can have a bad rep for being messy and overwhelming, but with the ASR Design Gang that rep will seem like a long-forgotten myth.
Our pain-free project management includes:
-
Site visits as needed during the construction process (we’ve got our hardhats ready and waiting!)
-
Ongoing collaboration with all professional trade team members
(For real: Click here to read about how picky we are when choosing contractors to collaborate with.)
step six
The big reveal (get the bubbly handy!)
We’ll be counting down the days until construction is complete and then we’ll roll up our sleeves and slide into your space to oversee the delivery of all furniture. Once your gorgeous bits and pieces have arrived, our Transformation Team will put everything in place and style your space.
Then, it’s the red-carpet roll-out to walk you through your home’s magazine-worthy final transformation. Warning: There may be tears (and not just from us!)
Finally, we’ll hand over a Dream Home Care Kit to guide you in keeping your new items pristine and perfect for years to come.

Why you’ll love collaborating with us
We believe in pretty AND purposeful. Nobody should live in a museum. You can trust that your freshly designed space will be made for the whole family to love, LOL and live in. Speaking of which…
We’re family focused. We know you love our style (yay!), and we love your family! Which is why we’re determined to design a home with cohesive materials and finishes that work for your family and your lifestyle, so you have zero regrets once everything is installed.
Our budgets aren’t mysteries. We lay it all out on the table and create a complete and cohesive budget, so you know exactly how much you’re spending and where you’re spending it on.
-
We’re here for the long-haul, baby … just like your new interior design items! We’re proud to be pedantic about the quality of items we choose and use in your home. If it’s easily breakable, it won’t make it into your home.
-
We’re design diplomats here to problem-solve, troubleshoot and slap away any pesky problems that dare to haunt and daunt your design journey (and we’re whisper quiet about it – so you won’t know about a problem until it’s already been solved! Phew.)
-
With our detailed drawings and renderings (that are basically a work of art in themselves, btw) you’ll be able to easily and eagerly envision your new home.
-
Our project management is proactive. We’re logistical legends and love nothing more than overthinking every detail of your design to protect you from getting overwhelmed. From hunting down products and conducting weekly conference calls with the contractors through to providing them with spec sheets and detailed drawings so they have everything on site and ready to roll, we’ll be there to keep your design project on time and running smoothly.
Roll with the homies
