Every designer is different but here at Laura Fox Interior Design we pride ourselves on being what we consider a "full-service" design firm. This means that we work with you from point A through point Z to design the perfect room or home for you and see it through to completion. We handle the design, ordering, managing shipments, and ultimately installing all of the pieces in the space so that you receive the full impact of your new, complete, and absolutely stunning space.

While every member of the Laura Fox Interior Design team has their own personal style preferences ranging from glam transitional to modern farmhouse we really try to set aside our tastes and biases and instead design for our client. Every person has their own likes and dislikes and we believe that it is not our job to force our style on our clients. Rather, we try to really listen to our clients to understand who they are as a person, how they live their lives, and what they like in terms of design. From there we create the space that is specifically suited to that individual or family. Because, at the end of the day, it's your home and it should be someplace that you love and are comfortable in. We don't want you to feel like you're living in a museum. Your home should be a reflection of you and a tool to help you to live your best life.

It depends on the client! We work with close to 500 different vendors for furniture, art, accessories, window treatments, wall coverings, floor coverings, and more. This means that we have an assortment of options, many of which are only available to designers, that we can pull from to create a design that is perfectly tailored to our clients' tastes and budgets. Additionally, because many of the sources we use extend a discount to designers, we are able to pass that discount along to our clients so you often end up paying less by going through a designer than you would for a comparable piece that was purchased through a retail supplier.

Nope! We love creating new relationships with our colleagues on the architecture and building side! Some of our most long-standing client relationships have grown from our relationships with builders and architects. It's also always informative to learn different techniques or ways of doing things by working with new people. So, if you have an architect or contractor that you love and want to work with, we relish the opportunity! That being siad, if you are looking for recommendations we do have some fabulous people who we are happy to put you in touch with.

Just like how every client is different, so too is every project. Even a project that doesn't require any construction at all and is simply a change in furnishings can often take 12-16 weeks to see through to completion if there are any custom furniture pieces included in that design (which we love to use as it ensures that our clients are getting something unique that is specially created for them). It's because of this often lengthy project life cycle that there are times when we have to hold off on starting new projects until we finish up with the current ones. The amount of wait time necessary before starting can definitely fluctuate depending on where in the process we are with other projects but we will always be upfront with new clients from the beginning about what they can expect for a start date.

We start things off with an initial, onsite consultation in which Laura will come and meet with you in your home to discuss the project in detail, see the space, and have the always thrilling budget conversation. There is a $250 fee for this consultation which will be applied to future bills should you choose to move forward. Based on that conversation, Laura will quote a design fee that includes the time that the LFID team spends designing the space and managing the construction, finish selection, ordering, and installation process. The design fee fluctuates based on the scope of the project and the estimated amount of time that will be required to see it to completion. It does not include any of the items that are ordered for your space or any shipping charges or applicable taxes.

Anything and everything! If someone is eating in the LFID office you can be certain to always have a little furry companion staring you down and praying that you'll drop something. But he especially loves raw carrots and Peruvian chicken.

Typically Wilbur starts the day with a nice bowl of kibble followed by a walk with his doting mother. Then, Wilbur & Laura head to the office where he gets straight to work on his extensive task list of naps, snuggles, and some tug of war with his toy of the moment. Around lunchtime he makes the rounds trying to sweet talk the team into sharing their lunch with him (there's always at least one sucker) before resuming his regularly scheduled napping. At some point over the course of the afternoon Laura will suggest taking a walk which inevitably prompts a thrilling game of tag combined with hide and seek throughout the office. When the work day is over Wilbur makes his way home with Laura to continue in his mission to make sure that she has all of the pug snuggles (puggles?) she could possibly need! It's a rough life for a little pug.

Laura had wanted a black pug named Wilbur for at least 10 years before finally making the decision to actually get one. After doing a ton of research on local breeders, she found one and was getting first pick of the litter. Wilbur came right over and covered her with kisses. And that was that. Laura fell deeply in love and there was no going back.

Laura thought it would be nice to give the little guy a more formal name and thus he became Sir Wilbur Scott the Beast. After choosing this fancy moniker, Laura received copies of his birth documents and discovered that his parents were named Master Edward James Cookie Monster and Princess Justine Leigh Pia. Could it be any more perfect?!?
