How an Interior Designer Fits into the Construction Process

When constructing a custom home, selecting your interior designer is one of the earliest and most important decisions. The ideal design-build collaboration involves the architect, the interior designer, and the builder. While the architect and builder create the overall volume of a livable house, an interior designer sees the vision for how people will move through a home–their lives enriched by its beauty and functionality.

Hardwood or tile flooring? Custom cabinetry or open shelving? Clawfoot tub with a designer faucet or drop-in bathtub?

These are key details that an interior designer focuses on, which may not be primary considerations for the architect and builder. When you work with MDS, we will guide you through every stage of the new-build process–adding value and insights that benefit both you and the build team.

Your Lifestyle Is Our Blueprint.

Whether you're drawn to the timeless elegance of classic designs, the sleek appeal of contemporary style, the relaxed vibe of coastal living, or anything that falls uniquely in between, MDS will ensure a seamless and personalized finish to your new home.

We collaborate closely with architects, from creating the initial floor plan design to rendering plans for a beautiful and practical home that fits your daily life. Working together, we consider details like optimal space allocation, room positioning and window views, and traffic flow and functionality.

MDS’s services may extend to consultation with builders and architects on plumbing, electrical, and mechanical plans; cabinetry placement; and floor plans.

We can also provide conceptual detailed drawings for moulding, fireplace design, ceiling treatments, decorative built-ins, and tile layouts.

We enjoy being a part of your design-build team and will align with your builder’s timelines and assist their subcontractors.

The Beauty is in the Details.

MDS appreciates the artistry of finishes and offers a cohesive design package tailored to your preferences, such as:

  • Flooring
  • Tile
  • Countertops
  • Cabinetry
  • Cabinetry hardware
  • Paint colors
  • Wall finishes
  • Trim & mouldings
  • Lighting fixtures
  • Plumbing fixtures

MDS also offers a range of products for your project, including decorative light fixtures, mirrors, wall treatments, and other select materials.

The Process

01

Phone Consultation

During our complimentary initial consultation, we will discuss your design goals, preferences, budget, and timeline.

02

Design Consultation

This meeting will allow us to thoroughly review various aspects integral to your project's success. The design consultation includes a comprehensive examination of your architectural plans, allowing us to gain a deep understanding of your space's spatial layout, structural elements, and functional requirements.

In addition to the architectural plans, we will review inspirational photos or ideas that resonate with your vision for the project. These visuals serve as valuable reference points, enabling us to better comprehend your aesthetic preferences, style aspirations, and specific design goals. By incorporating your inspiration and personal tastes into the consultation, we can tailor our recommendations and design solutions to align with your unique vision. Our hourly rate will apply to the design consultation.

03

Design and Procurement

We’ll pull together inspiration and create a plan. Our new construction services are priced at the same hourly rate and driven by your goals; therefore, they may vary in scope and depth. Some offerings we may provide include:

  • A brand guide- a curated visual guide to advise your ongoing design decisions for design cohesion
  • Exterior elevations- If you’d like to visualize the selected materials for the façade, like brick, stone, siding, or different views of your home, elevations may help practical planning purposes.
  • Product Sourcing- We can source products and finishes like tile, countertops, plumbing, light fixtures, and more, ensuring a seamless and convenient experience. We have access to exclusive, high-quality lines to meet all your design needs.
  • Mood boards- A mood board offers you a personalized collage of the selected finishes and fixtures, showcasing real products. It provides a visual tool to envision the seamless interplay of materials throughout your space, allowing you to grasp how they harmonize with one another.
  • Conceptual drawings- MDS consults on plans and provides detailed drawings for various design elements. We work with builders and architects on plumbing, electrical, and mechanical plans, cabinetry, floor plans, and other custom home design elements. Additionally, we provide detailed conceptual drawings for finish features that elevate your home’s unique character and express your personality.

For clients who desire an extension of our services for greater efficiency and peace of mind, we procure products on their behalf. Upon receiving a retainer, we will purchase and deliver the specified items, with charges applied at our standard hourly rate. The range of products we acquire includes, but is not limited to, flooring, tile, light fixtures, and mirrors.
