The Macy Lane story started in 1992 when after taking an Interior Design class in high school, I was hooked on creating beautiful and inviting spaces. Back then, if you were not great at drawing, Interior Design wasn't a wise career choice, so I went on to college and majored in communications and public relations. While my career in marketing & PR allowed me to refine my business skills, I always had the desire to be more creative on a regular basis. After remodeling several homes and doing design projects for friends & family, I decided to officially take the plunge into full-time interior design in 2020. The COVID pandemic allowed me the chance to complete in-depth interior design training and refine my design skills … because what else are you going to do during quarantine?
Today, the Macy Lane team offers a wide variety of interior design services for our clients, ranging from choosing the right materials for a bathroom or kitchen remodel to picking the perfect paint, furniture, and lighting for a new home. If you're considering hiring a professional to help update your home, here is what you can expect when working with Macy Lane Designs:
Discovery
The first step in our process is to speak with you on the phone and get a better sense of your design goals, needs, and budget.
Space Review
We’ll work with you to review your space in person or virtually, allowing us to gather measurements and gain a better understanding of your home. We’ll also request to see photos of any design inspirations you may have.
Design Plan
Once we have the basics, we’ll get to work on creating a design plan that meets your needs. This process usually takes 2-4 weeks, depending on our bandwidth and your design needs.
Presentation & Modification
After our design plan is complete, we’ll review it with you and pivot where we need to. Design presentations can include; furniture selection, paint recommendations, materials selection, flooring concepts, art, accessories, lighting, and hardscape recommendations. *3D floor plans can be provided for an additional fee.
Approval & Ordering
Once we have finalized the design plan we’ll provide you with a detailed breakdown of what needs to be ordered to complete your space. If you have chosen our full-service design package, we will issue an invoice for all items and begin the ordering process.
Install Day
After the remodeling & purchasing is done, it’s finally Installation Day! Our team will arrive with the finishing touches, inclusive of furniture, floor coverings, art and accessories, resulting in a beautifully curated space that reflects you.
*Please note that Macy Lane Designs does not employ contractors or various trades. While we have several trade professionals that we work with and can refer, all trades are to be hired directly by the client for final install once design plan is approved.
