Design

Your designer will get to work on your space, staying true to your budget, timeline, and decorative preferences. Access your design drafts at anytime & leave comments for your designer at your convenience. 

Purchase

Your final project plan will include visual layout direction as well as furniture & decor suggestions. Only buy the pieces you love! We'll place all of your items in a single shopping cart, regardless of how many different sellers you're purchasing from. Your designer will process your order and liaise with sellers directly on your behalf. 

 Always virtual, always affordable& always inspired by you

Virtual

We're willing to bet that you value your free time - that's why every interaction you have with us will be 100% virtual. No in person meetings, ever. Access your design drafts online at anytime & leave comments for your designer at your convenience. 

Affordable

You pay $70 per room, plus the items you decide to purchase. Your designer will recommend items within your budget, and you'll only buy the pieces you love. Sweet deal, right?

YOU are the reason all of this works. You inspire our designs to push boundaries they never considered. So never lose yourself. You're way too important.

How should I prepare for my consultation meeting?

You'll want to come to your first meeting prepared with the following:

  • What is your timeline? When is your move-in date and when would you ideally like your rental to be furnished? Please keep in mind that designers need 2 weeks minimum to create a final project plan.
  • If you have access to floor plans or room dimensions, definitely have a digital version ready to share at your first meeting. This way, your designer can get started on choosing pieces ASAP.
    • Pro tip: If you live in a high-rise building, this info can usually be found through a quick Google search! 
  • Determine your budget (or a rough budget). If you have no idea, your designer can give you an idea based on your wish list.
  • General design aesthetic - do you want your space to be modern? traditional? minimalist? industrial? other? If you're not sure, check out our page on design styles. 
What makes Dwelling Designs different from other virtual interior design services?

Dwelling Designs is the only online interior design service dedicated  to apartment rentals. Our designers have a specific knack for designing for young adult renters, and understand the budget concerns typically associated with that demographic.

Our sell back program (enter link to terms page) is unique and speaks to our commitment to meeting our rental clients where they are. Our goal is to create a beautiful, comfortable home for our clients for the duration of their rental. Once a lease is up, we delight in the opportunity to help our clients prepare for their next move with a clean slate and some extra cash in hand.

What am I paying for?

For just $70 per room you'll get:

  • One-on-one access to your vetted, professional designer for the duration of your project

  • Ability to comment on your design plan drafts at anytime, from anywhere

  • A room design specific to your style & budget

  • A final design plan including furniture, decor, and a digital floor plan with layout instructions

  • One flat fee with no hidden costs or pesky hourly rates (plus the cost of furniture)

  • One stop checkout - we'll aggregate your purchase items from across the web and send you a single check out page
