Who is full-service interior design right for?
Full-service interior design is ideal for clients local to the NY metro area, and homeowners undergoing construction, renovations, or large-scale design projects. Our bread and butter is kitchen and bathroom renovations, adding a mudroom, and making your powder room sing. We turn a house into a home.
House of Funk works on a few signature projects a year, typically in the six-figure range, with average home values of over a million. If you’re not local to the NY metro area, don’t have a six-figure budget, and enjoy executing design, you’re an online interior design client
How does full-service interior design work?
- Full-service interior design consists of:
- 1. Getting to know you
- 2. Conceptual design
- 3. Detailed design
- 4. Purchasing and implementation
Our full-service approach enables us to manage projects from initial concept through to completion, designing your home down to the final detail. It is our job to take care of the major and minute design details that turn a house into a home.

Step 1: Getting to Know You
Your home should be an authentic reflection of you. Our process always starts with getting to know you. We want to know how you’d like to feel and function in the space, and what kinds of results you’d like to see from our work together. During this big-picture conversation, we discuss design direction and your style, how you want to feel in your completed space, scope, budget, our process, and our fees. This phase is also where you get to share your dreams for your space.

Step 2: Conceptual Design Phase
This is where our greatest value lies. It’s where we take in all of your input and desires, consider the location and architecture of your home, and the needs of your family. We truly envision your project from all of these angles, making sure that spaces flow from one room to another, that they fit your lifestyle, family, and aesthetic, as well as the character of the architectural structure. During this phase, we will confirm the design direction, layout, and budget of the project.

Step 3: Detailed Design Phase
After conceptual design, our team digs into the details. Elevations, sketches for custom pieces, and lots of sourcing dominate this time. In this phase, we complete selections in accordance with the approved inspiration boards, and finalize floor plans. Then, we propose all items for your approval. We showcase the summary of the design components in our detailed design presentation. There, you will see each fabric, finish, and detail all tied back to your approved scope and budget.
-
Step 4: Execution and Purchasing Phase
All purchasing and execution goes through us. Once proposals are signed and payment is received, orders are placed and a timeline is set. We communicate with vendors and contractors on the specific details that make the design really “sing.” If your project includes a renovation, this is when the construction begins.
We oversee and coordinate deliveries and installations. Our team will be on site for the installations to ensure that the transformation is complete and that we’ve created the home of your dreams.
