Frequently Asked Questions

What is full-service interior design?

Full-service interior design is a comprehensive approach to designing and executing a home renovation or furnishing project from initial concept through final installation. Rather than simply helping you select finishes or furniture, our team develops the overall design vision and helps manage the many details required to bring it to life.

Depending on the scope of your project, this may include space planning, material and finish selections, cabinetry design, plumbing and lighting selections, furnishings, construction documentation, coordination with contractors and trades, procurement, and final styling. The goal is to give you a cohesive, professionally designed home while taking much of the decision-making and day-to-day design management off your plate.

What types of projects are best suited for full-service interior design?

Full-service interior design is ideal for homeowners undertaking a kitchen and primary bath renovation, a new construction project, or a whole-home renovation project who want professional guidance throughout the entire process.

We frequently work on whole-home renovations, kitchens, primary bathrooms, primary suites, living spaces, and multi-room furnishing projects. This service is particularly valuable when a project involves numerous selections, custom details, multiple trades, or design decisions that need to work together throughout the home.

How involved do I need to be in the design and renovation process?

You remain an important part of the project, but you don't need to manage every detail yourself. We establish your priorities, aesthetic, lifestyle needs, and investment goals early in the design process and use that direction to develop a cohesive plan for your home.

We present key design concepts and selections for your approval at defined milestones, while our team handles much of the research, sourcing, documentation, communication, and design coordination behind the scenes. You stay informed and maintain final approval over important decisions without having to spend your evenings researching tile, comparing plumbing specifications, or trying to determine whether everything will actually work together.

What does a full-service interior designer handle during a renovation?

Our role is to develop the design vision for your home and provide the information needed to help your contractor and trades execute it successfully.

Depending on your project, we may assist with space planning, cabinetry and millwork design, flooring, tile, countertops, plumbing fixtures, lighting, hardware, paint colors, furnishings, window treatments, and other architectural and decorative details. For renovation projects, we also develop detailed design documentation and work collaboratively with your contractor and trades to answer design-related questions as the project moves into construction.

Can I use my own contractor or builder?

Absolutely. We regularly collaborate with homeowners' preferred general contractors, builders, architects, and trades. We can also connect clients with vetted, licensed, bonded, and insured contractors and skilled trade professionals when additional resources are needed.

Our role is different from that of your contractor. We establish the design direction, make and document selections, and provide the design information needed to help the construction team accurately price and execute the project. Your contractor manages the construction itself, including scheduling, permitting, subcontractors, and job-site execution.

When should I hire an interior designer for a renovation?

Ideally, an interior designer should be involved before construction begins and, whenever possible, before final contractor pricing is established.

Developing the design first allows important decisions involving layouts, cabinetry, lighting, plumbing, tile, finishes, and other materials to be incorporated into the contractor's scope and pricing. This can reduce allowances, last-minute decisions, unexpected costs, and change orders once construction is underway.

For larger renovations and new construction projects, bringing the designer, contractor, and other key professionals together early can create a much smoother process.

How is a full-service interior designer different from hiring a contractor or decorator?

An interior designer, contractor, and decorator can all play important roles, but they typically have very different responsibilities.

Your contractor is responsible for building and executing the project. A decorator generally focuses on the aesthetic finishing layers of a space, such as furniture, accessories, and styling. As full-service interior designers, we develop the overall creative and functional direction of the home, including layouts, finishes, fixtures, cabinetry details, lighting, furnishings, and the many design decisions that connect those elements.

We then work collaboratively with your contractor and trades so the finished home reflects the design that was developed and approved.

What's the typical timeline for a full-service interior design project?

Timelines vary considerably based on the size and complexity of the project. A single-room renovation may move much more quickly than a whole-home remodel involving custom cabinetry, construction documentation, specialty materials, and multiple trades.

Before construction begins, we establish a design timeline that allows time for concept development, selections, revisions, approvals, documentation, pricing, and ordering. We also help identify long-lead items early so they can be incorporated into the overall project schedule.

While renovation timelines can shift due to construction conditions, product availability, permitting, or trade schedules, our goal is to make sure the design itself is thoroughly developed before major construction decisions need to be made.

Can you provide full-service interior design for just one room?

Yes. Full-service design does not necessarily mean renovating your entire home.

We work with homeowners on individual spaces such as kitchens, bathrooms, primary suites, living rooms, and other rooms that require a comprehensive design approach. The right fit depends less on the number of rooms and more on the complexity and scope of the project.

Do you help with furniture and furnishings as part of full-service interior design?

Yes. For projects that include furnishings, we can carry the design from the architectural and renovation phase through furniture, rugs, lighting, window treatments, artwork, accessories, and final styling.

This allows us to consider the finished space from the beginning rather than treating construction and furnishings as two unrelated projects. The result is a home where the architecture, finishes, furniture, lighting, and decorative details feel intentional and connected.

Is full-service interior design worth it?

For many homeowners, the greatest value of full-service interior design is having an experienced professional looking at the project as a whole.

Renovations involve hundreds of interconnected decisions, and seemingly small choices can affect cabinetry dimensions, electrical locations, plumbing, tile layouts, furniture placement, budgets, and construction schedules. Our job is to anticipate those decisions, create a clear design plan, document the details, and help keep the project aligned with the original vision.

For homeowners investing significantly in their homes, professional interior design can also help protect that investment by reducing costly design mistakes and creating a finished home that feels cohesive rather than pieced together over time.

Where do you offer full-service interior design services?

Macy Lane Designs has studio locations in Phoenix, Arizona, and Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, and we work with homeowners throughout each of these metro areas.

For select projects outside of our primary service areas, we can also provide design support and collaborate with contractors and trades in other parts of the United States. The level of service available for an out-of-state project will depend on the scope, location, and amount of on-site coordination required.
