Do I need an interior designer?

A home designer works with the interior of a house to create the comfort and aesthetics that the homeowners want to achieve.

A home designer works with the interior of a house to create the comfort and aesthetics that the homeowners want to achieve.  They can read and follow blueprints and understand the building codes and safety regulations in place.  With that in mind, they develop the colours, fabrics, lighting and décor that will turn the room into a safe and liveable space that incorporates the family’s taste and up-to-date trends. 

The designer will incorporate your personal style and preferences to reflect your personality and yet allow for a functional space.  They offer suggestions about furniture and its placement, decorative items, and critical areas like storage.

More Than an Interior Designer

When it comes to the design element of your new space, there can be more to consider than colours and fixtures.  We encourage our homeowners to make the selections that will make their new space their own.  But we also encourage them to use the services of our professional designers.  This streamlines the decision process and offers guidance so that all the elements coordinate and look perfect. 

Our designers are part of our team and they work with the construction crew to advocate for your intentions and to help you select the finishes that will enhance your area.  Our designers are used to working with older Ottawa homes and realize the issues that can crop up unannounced.  They will help you make the right decisions for your needs and still conform to the construction codes and overall design. 

At HighBridge we are happy to provide alternate suggestions if you have opted to not use one of our designers.  We will help you keep on target and within the established budget.
