Our Design Process
Design Process:
Step 1 of our design process is to schedule a Discovery Meeting to learn about your project goals and lifestyle. This critical first meeting, allows us to fully understand your project so that we can provide you with a realistic design proposal that defines the scope of work and the related design investment.
With a signed proposal of services, we'll take what we've learned about your project expectations, style, space constraints and budget, and in return deliver fresh, curated design options, space plans, finish and material choices, and renderings that will give you a clear vision of what your space can be.
Having approved the design concepts, space plan options and finish choices, we'll dive into the design development and detail stage. Here we'll document the individual details of bespoke furnishings, material and cabinetry choices and interior architecture drawings for final approval. At this stage we will also present a detailed breakdown of the furnishings.
Every successful design is made up of hundreds if not thousands of individual product and service decisions and details. Our team has the project management skill and trade software that allows us to communicate, coordinate, track, problem solve, warehouse, deliver and finally install every bit of it. All purchasing, expediting and even the final delivery and placement of your home furnishings are handled with ease.
You can rest easy knowing that your project will come together seamlessly..
Full-Service Whole-Home Interior Design
KED Interiors provides comprehensive, full-service interior design for custom new builds, renovations, and large-scale residential & commercial projects.
Our full-service work is an integrated design engagement, led holistically from concept through installation. Rather than selecting individual services, clients engage KED Interiors to design the home as a complete system, ensuring clarity, cohesion, and long-term livability.
Full-service interior design typically encompasses:
Space planning and layout development
Finish and material selection
Lighting and interior architectural detailing
Custom furnishings and built-ins
Procurement, project coordination, and installation oversight
These elements are intentionally interconnected and evolve together over the course of the project.
This service is best suited for clients who want a cohesive home designed from the ground up, not room by room or à la carte.

The best time to hire an interior designer for a custom home is during the architectural planning phase, before layouts, finishes, or systems are finalized.
A whole-home interior designer helps guide decisions around space planning, sightlines, lighting, materials, and furnishings early in the process—often preventing costly revisions later. Designers who specialize in new construction work collaboratively with architects and builders to ensure the interiors function cohesively once the home is complete, not just look good on paper.
That said, it’s never too late to loop in a professional designer. Even if construction is already underway, a designer can help refine selections, resolve layout challenges, elevate lighting and millwork decisions, and bring cohesion to the overall vision.
For lake homes or second residences, early involvement is especially valuable due to space planning, storage needs, durability considerations, and seasonal use.
-
A full-service interior designer is involved in the planning and execution of a home from a structural and functional perspective, while a decorator focuses primarily on surface-level aesthetics.
Full-service interior design typically includes space planning, finish and material selection, lighting design, custom furnishings, procurement, and project coordination. This approach is most valuable for new construction, large renovations, and whole-home projects where cohesion and long-term livability matter.
Our Signature Spaces service is better suited for smaller updates where layouts and architectural elements are already established.
-
Yes — architects, builders, and interior designers serve different but complementary roles.
Architects focus on the structure and exterior form of a home, while builders manage construction. Interior designers focus on how the home functions and feels once it’s lived in: room proportions, furniture layouts, lighting layers, material transitions, and daily usability.
For custom homes and vacation or lake houses, interior designers often work alongside architects and builders to ensure that design decisions translate smoothly from plans to finished spaces.
-
Designing a home as a whole is generally more effective than approaching it room by room, especially for custom builds and renovations.
A whole-home approach considers flow between spaces, consistent scale, material continuity, and how rooms relate to one another. This leads to interiors that feel cohesive and complete rather than pieced together over time.
Room-by-room design can work for smaller updates.
-
Lake houses and vacation homes benefit from interior designers who specialize in whole-home planning and second residences.
These homes often require thoughtful storage solutions, durable materials, flexible furnishings, and layouts that work across seasons and varying guest use. Designers experienced with lake homes understand how to balance comfort, function, and longevity without overdesigning spaces that need to adapt.
-
Small projects typically consist of at least three full rooms. There may be elements in the room you are keeping such as flooring, but we want to be able to complete a full vision of interior design with both function and aesthetics. In other words, we would be addressing the majority of the house.
We offer our Signature Spaces design service for smaller spaces with no need for construction.
