5 Reasons to Hire an Interior Designer

One of our core Saguaro West beliefs is that everyone deserves an inspiring and beautiful home. There are so many details that go into creating a space that is uniquely yours, and it should always function in a way that fits who you are and how you live.

Maybe it’s time to start tackling that big project in your home that you’ve been planning and saving for? Especially if you’ve already invested a bit of money into your home (or plan to), hiring an interior designer is a smart move.

Taking on a project as a DIY or with the help of an overly-helpful friend or relative might lead to a finished project that doesn’t work well and doesn’t appeal to you.

Unfortunately, many people are intimidated or confused by the idea of hiring an interior designer. Although this can be a scary thought, having a designer work with you can help you identify your goals and needs upfront, develop a budget, and execute the job seamlessly. We want to alleviate these fears by offering a full suite of design services and sharing how an interior designer is worth every penny.

01. Save Money.

One of the most common misconceptions about interior design is that it is too costly or an unneeded expense. But the truth is, working with an interior designer is affordable and can actually help you to save money. A good designer knows how to work with any budget (big or small) and will help you get the most out of every penny.

Having someone with years of experience will allow you to plan out exactly where every penny is going. For example, what happens when you invest in a good piece of furniture that might look good in the store but ends up being too big when you get it home? A designer can help source the best piece for your space before you buy, but more importantly, get the project done right the first time.

02. Save Time. 

Having a designer on board will also save you time, aside from making the design process easier. They can help you avoid getting stuck in the process of researching and choosing products or options for your home, by easily narrowing down the best options for your home's design.

A skilled designer can help keep all the details organized and in mind so that you can focus on the important parts of the project. For example, having the proper lighting and other elements planned out before the project even begins is essential to avoid making mistakes or miscalculations. They can also help prevent common design blunders, which can leave your home feeling cluttered and out of place.

03. Professional Assessment. 

A designer can help you get the most out of the project by giving you fresh eyes and creative ideas. But they can also help identify areas for potential issues and offer solutions, all while helping you visualize the finished product. For instance, proper outlet placement can be an issue that the designer will address before the construction begins.

04. Find the Right Resources.

Finding the right resources can be challenging, but by hiring a designer, you will be able to find people who can help with the work that they do. Aside from working with various companies and architects, interior designers also have access to a wide variety of fabrics and products unavailable to the general public. Not only do they have access to these resources, but they also know how to use them effectively in your space.

05. Uniquely Yours. 

A good interior designer will create a custom-designed space that fits perfectly into your home. Not only will your home look stunning, but it will also be functional. Instead of trying to mimic something you’ve seen online, your home will be the showcase everyone else will try to emulate.

Our design services can help you create a space that fits your budget and style. We will work with you to create a plan that fits your home's needs, develop the space's layout, procuring furniture, accessories, and even textiles. Hiring a designer can be intimidating for some people, but it's well worth it.
