Design Process

Authentic & inspiring designs. Masterful Execution.

Our clients are high-achieving professionals and entrepreneurs who value creative expertise and complete project execution. Our process, honed over our 20+ years in the industry, helps us craft your most authentic and luxurious living experience, delivered via white glove service.

Serving North Vancouver, West Vancouver, and Canada’s East Coast.

Phase 1

Discovery

Your project starts with a Design Discovery Session in your home. This is an opportunity to connect with our team and share your wishlist. Together, we will identify your home’s potential and refine your project’s complete scope of work. You will also have the opportunity to review our design proposal and ask questions before proceeding.

Phase 2

Detailed Design

Our team goes to work for you in our studio, generating creative ideas, collaborating with trade specialists, sourcing materials and furnishings, and designing custom elements for your home. This phase culminates in your Design Presentation, a visual display of the detailed design: drawings, samples, and cost estimates for your consideration and approval.

Phase 3

Implementation

Once the design is approved, our team manages every detail of bringing it to fruition. We procure the items we have sourced for you, including ordering, tracking, receiving, inspecting, and storing all items with care. During this phase, we will also schedule any cosmetic or structural renovation work included in the scope of your project.

Phase 4

Installation & Reveal

With procurement and construction complete, we ask you to enjoy time off the premises while we install the finishing touches, including lighting, wallpaper, window coverings, and furnishings, over 1-3 days. Then, we invite you to come home to your authentic, inspiring, and finished interiors. *Insert tears of joy!*

Lori and her team were a delight to work with. Their coordination with all the trades, fast problem-solving, regular updates, and professional and friendly attitudes made it the dream team.

Working with Lori and her amazing team was the highlight of our renovation project. Her ability to perceive and execute on our vision was almost extra-sensory, and we couldn’t be happier with the way our project turned out.

Lori’s creative vision, perfectionism, communication skills & ability to harness trades is unparalleled. I couldn’t be happier in my new home. It has the “modern high-end hotel” but is also practical enough to house our 2 golden retrievers.

Our experience with Simply Home Decorating was amazing… Lori has a good sense of colour and pays attention to details. We really appreciate her hard work putting together a beautifully furnished house for us.

Lori transformed our living/dining room into a beautiful space beyond what we imagined. Everything looks fantastic and yet the room is very comfortable too, and feels like "us". We couldn't be happier with the end result.”
