Top Interior Design Firms Chicago – Hire or Avoid?

Finding the top interior design firms in Chicago can almost be a game of luck. Of course if you know the exact standards and tell-tale signs to look for, then you will know who to hire and who to avoid. However, like yourself most home owners and commercial property owners have no experience in choosing the best interior designers and often don’t know where to begin.

So in order to separate the rugs from the throws, read this article and follow our top tips:

Your absolute first place to begin your research is right here on the Internet. Any firm or designer who has the talent, experience and confidence to display their work will be doing so through a well designed website. This gives you the perfect opportunity to browse around and take a look at their style, portfolio, experience, qualifications and previous commissions they have completed. From here you can shortlist a designer that matches your personality, needs and dreams for your property.

Secondly, as I have mentioned above, it is imperative to ensure the firm you are choosing has well qualified and experienced staff. This is absolutely essential as ensuring your design runs smoothly will take an experienced team to fluently guide the whole process from initial consultations to the ‘turn key’ finale.
Of course free consultations are something you should always look for. Never pay any design firm for your initial meeting.

After narrowing down your online search to a designer that meets the above requirements, it is important to make contact with a simple phone call. I always advise this because it is imperative you connect with your designer and design firm on a personal level. After all if you commission them you’ll need to communicate comfortably with each other.

A simple chat on the phone for a few minutes will ensure that the designer you have selected can work with you like a personal stylist for your home, blending textures, colours, materials and patterns to create something that surpasses your dreams.

My own extensive research has found several firms in Chicago that match the guidelines above. However Summer Thornton Designs appears to combine innovative yet classic creations, with a wealth of experience and first rate client service.
