This day and age, people's activities online are no longer limited to checking their emails or surfing the internet. Many tasks can be done online: shopping, dating, conferencing, and recently, home designing and interior decorating.
Digital interior design is becoming a trend among homeowners who want to revamp or design their home, but they simply do not have the time to physically scout for the latest pegs or home design inspiration. In addition, they do not have time or resources to set up an appointment with an interior decorator.
Some websites are actually offering customized online decorating services and consultation. These sites give the benefits of having a personal home decorator, without having to pay for so much, or spend so much time meeting up with an actual designer.
Gretchen Hansen is the CEO of Decorist, one of the popular digital interior design websites, and she shares the benefits of signing up for their services. She explains, "With an online interior designer, you can live in Chattanooga and hire a fabulous designer in New York, even someone like Celerie Kemble, and you don't need to have a trust fund to do it."
Though they do not have the same decorating styles or prices, the procedure on how to avail their services are more or less similar among the sites. First, you have to take a style quiz or upload you're a picture of the place you are decorating. Then the website identifies a designer that is compatible with your style and budget. After which, your designer will plan how your space would look like, and list the things that you have to buy to execute the plan. This covers the kinds of furniture and décor suitable for your dream home.
The most popular websites that offer online decorating services include Havenly, Homepolish, and Laurel & Wolf. Begin planning the new look for your home in time for the New Year.
