Interior design often feels like an exclusive club, reserved for those with endless time, massive budgets, or their very own home to renovate. But here’s the truth: interior design is for everyone. Whether you’re a renter, a homeowner, or someone looking to refresh their space on a budget, design doesn’t have to be out of reach. Let’s break down some common myths that might be holding you back.

Myth 1: Interior Design Takes Too Much Time

Does the idea of tackling a home project make you want to run for the hills? You’re not alone. Many people assume that working with an interior designer means endless back-and-forth meetings, countless hours spent discussing options, and weeks of planning. But it doesn’t have to be that way.

I’ve streamlined the process to make it as simple as possible for you. All I need is 1-2 hours of your time at the start of the project. You’ll take some basic measurements, answer a few questions in a detailed questionnaire, and—voilà—you’re done! From there, I’ll create a custom design plan for you in just seven days. That’s right: in one week, you’ll have a tailored selection of furniture, accessories, and layout suggestions to bring your dream space to life—without spending countless hours on the project yourself.

Myth 2: Interior Design Is Too Expensive

Many people shy away from hiring a designer because they assume it’s a luxury they can’t afford. And yes, you can spend thousands (or tens of thousands) on a design project if you want to. But here’s the catch: not hiring a designer can actually end up costing you more in the long run.

How many times have you bought furniture or decor only to realize it doesn’t quite work in your space? It’s frustrating, expensive, and leaves you feeling stuck. By working with a designer, you’re investing in a plan that eliminates guesswork and ensures every purchase is purposeful. Plus, I’m committed to working within your budget. Whether you have $3,000 or $30,000 to spend, I’ll help you create a space you love without breaking the bank.

Myth 3: My Designer Needs to Visit My Home

Thanks to technology, the days of needing an in-person visit are long gone. With e-design, I can work with clients anywhere in the world. All you need is a simple room sketch with measurements (don’t worry, it doesn’t have to be professional—a quick drawing is perfect!) and a short video walkthrough of the space. From there, I can create a complete design plan tailored to your home.

Choosing a designer isn’t about proximity anymore. Instead, you should focus on factors like their style, communication skills, and ability to work within your budget. Whether you’re in the same city or halfway across the globe, the right designer can make all the difference.

Do you know what is the toughest part of designing?
Making decisions. Because choosing this means not choosing that. And what if you make a mistake? What if you regret your choice?
That’s why I am here for you. As a professionally trained and experimented interior designer, I can make the right choice, for YOU.

Myth 4: My Space Needs to Be Empty to Start

Think your room needs to be a blank slate before you can start decorating? Think again. Part of an interior designer’s job is to work with what you already have. Whether it’s a beloved sofa, a family heirloom, or a collection of decor items, I can incorporate your existing pieces into a cohesive design.

Of course, if you’re ready to start fresh, that’s an option too! But it’s never a requirement. And if there’s something in your space that truly doesn’t fit the vibe you’re going for, I’ll let you know. My goal is to make the most of what you have while introducing new elements that elevate your space.

Myth 5: You Need to Be a Homeowner

This might be the most pervasive myth of all, and I’m here to shout from the rooftops: you do not need to own a home to enjoy great design!

In fact, over 70% of my clients are renters. Designing a beautiful space isn’t about making permanent changes or expensive renovations; it’s about finding the right furniture, accessories, and layouts to transform your home into a sanctuary. There are countless renter-friendly solutions available, from peel-and-stick wallpaper to temporary lighting upgrades, that can make a huge impact without jeopardizing your security deposit.

Upgrading your space isn’t just for homeowners. Whether you’re in a tiny studio or a spacious rental, you deserve to live in a home that reflects your style and meets your needs.
