A home improvement project can be stressful, overwhelming & waste up to 29.6% of your budget. On the flip side, your next room makeover can increase your happiness, and bring you ongoing joy (as it does for only 24.6% of homeowners). The choice is 100% yours on what the outcome is (regardless of whether you DIY or use a design professional)... The Design Brief ExpertCreating Design Clarity is a process that is clearly defined in black & white, for the homeowner, their personal design styles & colour preferences. This is achieved via fun and enjoyable hybrid online course environment. This process makes it easy for homeowners to instantly step into the design process without being indecisive, confused, or uncertain when engaging with an interior designer, architect or launching a DIY makeover.As a qualified architect for 10+ years, an interior designer for 15+ years, & kitchen designer for 5+ years, I commissioned research that confirmed what I feared - regardless of whether the homeowner is DIY or involves a professional designer, there is a 42.4% chance they will NOT like the outcome! They were NOT unhappy with the quality of a tradies/designers/architect's standard of work or creative flair, but the look & feel of the space didn't sit well with them.For the fraction of the cost of a ‘typical makeover’, the homeowner purchases my Creating Design Clarity Toolbox, with a comprehensive suite of easy-to-follow instructions, videos & worksheets. In the privacy of their home, they step through the process of examining, exploring & documenting their unique & personal design style & colour profile. Most people live with others, so I encourage homeowners to do the process together … besides, it is fun - definitely easier than sanding & gib-stopping! Their investment in this process helps them also avoid costly & frustrating rework that occurs in 30% of all renovation jobs.The homeowner hands this design brief to their chosen professional interior designer/architect/kitchen designer, to apply their design flair & knowledge of the latest materials & enhancements of styles etc to transform their client's place!The savings are outstanding for all parties concerned - the professional outsources this time-consuming self-exploration process to me, & is given in return, by their client a clear outline that does not interfere with their design creativity or design process. The client saves money & gains satisfaction by avoiding rework!
