How Our Commercial Process Works
We begin with space planning, high-level layouts, and early budget alignment. This phase identifies constraints, opportunities, and risk areas before costly commitments are made.
1. Commercial Planning & Feasibility
We refine layouts, finishes, furniture, and styling while coordinating with builders, engineers, and consultants to ensure decisions remain buildable, code-aware, and budget-conscious.
2. Design Development, Decorating & Coordination
We prepare drawings, specifications, and schedules suitable for permitting, pricing, and construction. Our documentation supports accurate costing and reduces redesign.
3. Documentation & Pricing Support
4. Construction & Installation Support
During construction and installation, we provide ongoing design and decorating support, clarifications, and coordination to maintain alignment through completion.
This approach reduces budget drift, redesign, and decision fatigue while supporting smoother delivery.
Commercial Design Fees & Pricing Guidance
Commercial projects vary widely in size and complexity. Our pricing follows a clear, structured framework similar to our residential services, adapted for commercial delivery.
Commercial services are typically structured in one or more of the following ways:
Hourly Professional Services
Used for feasibility studies, workplace assessments, decorating-only scopes, or targeted support.
Hourly rates typically range from $150 to $300 per hour, depending on scope and seniority.
Phase-Based Design & Decorating Services
For office renovations, tenant improvements, or full interior delivery, fees are commonly structured by phase and complexity.
As a general guide, commercial interior design and decorating fees often fall within 8 to 12 percent of construction and FF&E value, depending on scope, coordination requirements, and level of documentation.
Minimum Commercial Engagements
To ensure proper planning and coordination, most commercial projects require a minimum engagement, particularly for tenant improvements, office renovations, or full decorating scopes.
Final fees are confirmed once scope, size, and delivery method are defined. We are transparent about fees early so teams can plan appropriately and avoid surprises.

Commercial landlords preparing spaces for lease
Dealerships and service-based businesses
