Vision Interiors

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars13 April 2014
“Vision interiors is the most professional company I have ever worked with. Their designs are stunning to say the least. Their designs are personally tailored to your unique desin style. They are extremely creative and picked out pieces for my home that I never would have considered or been able to find on my own, but worked out perfectly. What's more, they are punctual and well-priced! I couldn't recommend this company more!”

“I recently became a homeowner and knew that I wanted a certain look for my living area but needed help in putting it all together. I wanted feminine, yet functional and using a decorative plate as inspiration, the Divas nailed it and delivered! My daughter and I love coming home and retreating in our glamorous space. Thank you Divas!!”

“We hired Lisa Dell Design and BCS Construction to undertake a remodel of our kitchen, family room, dining room and bathroom. Lisa was able to supply us design concepts that worked perfect for the project.

“We have worked with Cheri on many projects over the years and we know first-hand that she is extremely professional and always looking out for her clients' best interest. A joy to work with, she has a great sense of color and style, and quick response times to client inquiries. Each of Cheril's projects are unique, employing different products, styles and colorways -- no two are similar! In short, she's one of the best in the area.”

Soko Design
Interior Designers in Orange County, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 July 2016
“We consulted with Amber on refreshing some framed images around the hallways and offices at our HQ building where approximately 7 of our organization's executives sit. We had acquired the artwork we wanted to use years ago but could just never get to the point of actually getting things framed and on the walls! Amber came by and walked our office, studied all of the artwork and then recommended a frame type and color that she thought would best compliment the existing design of the office. She then located a framing resource nearby which did a high quality, low cost job. She brought all the framed artwork back and helped install them in the locations she thought would be most interesting given each image. The office was ABUZZ with excitement as she worked, our executives were following her around and remarking at how great they turned out and how exciting it was to finally have this project complete. It was a modest project but Amber handled it on time, as promised and with a smile-- she made a fan of everyone at our HQ. We would definitely use her again on another interior design project.”
27 Diamonds Interior Design
Interior Designers in Orange County, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars4 October 2012
“I hired Anna to help us decorate 4 rooms in our new home (living and adjacent dining room, den, loft). She was a great listener, and fit our needs perfectly. We didn't need a full-service decorator to buy our furniture for us. However, we did need help picking out pieces that would work well together, and stretched us beyond the bland all-neutral palette that was our "comfort zone." We have been very happy with the results, and would recommend her highly!”
VAN GALDER DESIGN

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars8 November 2017
“Jennifer brings a sophisticated yet timeless flair to her design work. I love how she finds furniture pieces that you don't see anywhere else and fit the design esthetic so beautifully. She also knows what life is really like with kids and makes a home livable AND stunning. That mix is very hard to find. Can't recommend her enough!”

Interior Designer FAQs
Interior design services in Orange County 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.
When considering hiring an interior designer, you can ask the following:
  • Experience: Ask about the designer’s background, education, experience, and previous similar projects.
  • Design Process: Gain insights into the designer’s project approach, design philosophy, preferred style, and how they incorporate client preferences. Review their Houzz portfolio to evaluate their design style and compatibility with your tastes.

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 Orange County, CA interior designer according to the type of work you need.

Why should I hire an interior designer in Orange County, CA?


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 Orange County, CA 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 Orange County, CA interior designer for my home?


Good design and visual inspiration are all around us. Start by searching for interior architects and interior designers in Orange County, CA 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 Orange County, CA 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.
