Laura Design Company
Interior Designers in Carpentersville, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars19 September 2016
“I have hired this company now on two occasions. They continue to exceed my expectations! I highly recommend them on the basis of their follow through, creativity and being under budget both times. That's almost unheard of!”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars28 February 2014
“Jen is great to work with. She always has solid ideas and suggestions for my projects. Additionally, she always finds the time to work with my clients; be it an in-home consultation, creating an idea book, or sitting down for hours to go through lighting catalogs. I only have good things to say about her services and I will definitely continue to recommend her to our clients.”

“CJ designed the living room at our new house. She was such a pleasure to work with and always very responsive. CJ is very talented and her vision for our room was perfect. We are thrilled with the end result!”
Kelly Brasch Interiors
Interior Designers in Carpentersville, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 November 2012
“"Love the light fixtures." "Who is the artist of that painting?" "It's perfect on that wall and makes the bathroom." "This is just a sampling of the many compliments we received after Kelly gave an updated look to our kitchen and powder room. After seeing her work her magic at our daughter's home, we knew we wanted her to do the same for us. She is a highly talented individual with excellent taste. Kelly pulled everything together with her eye for color and accessorizing. We would recommend her without hesitation. She recently completed her latest masterpiece: our family room. Her photos on Facebook show our family room looking like something you would see in a magazine. It is incredible. Dennis S. and Danielle B. – Lake Zurich, IL”
Ava James Design

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars27 April 2019
“I’m so glad I found Ava James Design. Kristie is professional & passionate, and so much fun to work with. Design is difficult for me, and Kristie made it easy. She listened to what I needed & added her own ideas, which I never would have thought of. I will definitely be contacting Kristie & Ava James Design for all of my design needs.”

Interior Designers in Carpentersville, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 August 2017
“Alessia of reDesign Home was an absolute delight to work with! After learning about my needs, likes, and vision, she presented three ideas -- each as good as the next. Her ability to combine multiple elements in a harmonious way that feels classic yet modern and elegant yet inviting is remarkable, and I'd recommend her services to anyone. Thank you so much, Alessia!”
Bobbi Alderfer/Lifestyle Design
Interior Designers in Carpentersville, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars5 October 2014
“Bobbi is a true professional at her craft. She focuses on the clients desires/needs on many levels from basic color preferences, whole house concepts and themes to budgetary considerations. I always felt that she connected with my tastes and understood my vision, which was oftentimes blurry. Bobbi has a tremendous capacity to help a home owner narrow their focus to hit the mark...and is not only patient, but she is a polite, and caring person. I have had her assist me with several projects ranging from flooring to a banquette in my kitchen...she is fabulous!”
Leah Phillips Interiors
Interior Designers in Carpentersville, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars9 July 2020
“We recently did a full-blown renovation of a two-story unit in a River North high rise. Leah really takes the time to understand your aesthetic and then seamlessly guides you through the process. We were completely overwhelmed with choosing bathroom finishes, kitchen finishes, flooring, lighting, wall colors, let alone furnishing our unit and Leah was there every step of the way. She is transparent, responsive, and extremely organized and makes what could be a stressful situation fun and easy. She worked very closely with our contractor and coordinated all logistics (delivery, vendors etc.) with our building. My favorite part of the process was seeing our vision come to life. We were out of town for a few weeks and Leah managed and orchestrated the entire delivery and set up of all furniture and styling of our home. After a long trip we came home to a furnished and perfectly styled home. It was such a treat! Leah truly is one of a kind and we can't recommend her enough.”
Impeccable by Meredith Park
Interior Designers in Carpentersville, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 October 2015
“Meredith is an amazing designer. It is apparent she loves her job. She understood my style, my needs and my budget. When I wanted an item that did not fit into my budget, she found a way to make it fit or explained to me why this would put the project over budget and found alternatives when necessary. She designed our rental condo unit in the city, which was a clean slate and our new offices for my market research company. I always felt comfortable expressing my opinion and she was always quick to change out an item if I expressed doubt about it. I believe using Meredith actually saved me money while still achieving my goals and meeting my deadlines. I can't wait to work with Meredith on my next project-a basement design.”
Expressive Interiors by Marietta Calas
Interior Designers in Carpentersville, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 January 2013
“I have been working with Marietta for several years. I got connected with her through my niece who also has worked with her. She has helped me redecorate my family room, my bedroom and my bathroom. I don't have an extremely large budget and am terribly indecisive. Somehow Marietta seems to be able to work through all of that and come up with some fantastic ideas. One of the most important factors in dealing with Marietta is that I trust her implicitly. Her taste is impeccable, her vision extraordinary and her patience unending. I currently have another project on the horizon and will be using Marietta for that as well. I would not hesitate to recommend her to friends and family. A decision that we live with forever!!!!”

Interior Designer FAQs
Interior design services in Carpentersville may be offered in different ways, including hourly rates, fixed fees, or a percentage of the project’s total cost, which will vary depending on the project itself. Interior design costs can range from £50 to £200 per hour, or a fixed fee between 5% and 20% of the total project cost. The key thing is to be very clear about your budget and your scope from the start, to ensure your designer can advise you on what is achievable. And remember, their contacts will probably save you money. A contingency fund of 10-15% is also recommended, especially if open-ended structural work is involved.

  • Experience: Ask about the designer’s background, education, experience, and previous similar projects.

What’s the difference between interior designers and interior decorators?


These two closely related professions are often mistaken for the same thing, however, there are some significant differences to be aware of before deciding which to hire. An interior designer, sometimes known as an interior architect, can run full renovation and structural design projects, and will use specialised knowledge of interior architecture, construction systems and components, building regulations, materials and furnishings to arrive at your dream home design. Interior design companies are able to plan spaces and room functions down to the last detail, and can help design and renovate interiors, from initial planning phases to placing the last decorative accessory. A decorator on the other hand will typically be involved only in the aesthetic layer, the “look and feel” of a space, and won’t be able to assist in renovations that require structural work. Interior decorators normally come on board after all structural work is complete. So choose your Carpentersville, IL interior designer according to the type of work you need.

Why should I hire an interior designer in Carpentersville, IL?


They say life is what happens while you’re busy making plans. Some of us are just too preoccupied with a career and/or family to think about colour schemes, wallpaper, flooring and lighting. A professional interior designer in Carpentersville, IL can save you bags of time, stress and months, if not years, of living in a half-finished home. It’s their job to stay on top of the latest trends and to have contacts and visual references coming out of their ears. Interior designers can also save you money, by sourcing products via trade contacts or offering affordable alternatives to blowout iconic designs.

How do I choose the right Carpentersville, IL interior designer for my home?


Good design and visual inspiration are all around us. Start by searching for interior architects and interior designers in Carpentersville, IL on Houzz. Keep a lookout for images of rooms and features that you really like and save them to your Ideabooks to begin to develop an understanding of your own style and taste. If you notice that photos from the same interior design companies are popping up regularly then that is a good hint that they could be your perfect design match. You can feel most confident if you hire an interior designer or interior design company in Carpentersville, IL that has completed work similar to the look and feel that you desire, whether that is a mix-and-match lounge oozing mid-century modern style, a pale and interesting minimalist bedroom with shots of colour, or a beautiful space inspired by Scandinavian design.

You may want to check if your designer is a member of the Society of British and International Design (SBID) or The British Institute of Interior Design (BIID). Both are a benchmark of quality and reliability. And check if your interior designers can offer you the right type of service – some companies are design only, while others can oversee the whole project. If it is the latter that you seek, make sure any sub-contractors used are fully accredited and it is clear who they are supposed to report to. If late alterations are made to the plan, the contractor should receive a change order, thus minimising the risk of a dispute about what was and wasn’t agreed to after the start date.
