What is a virtual style concierge and how is that different from an interior designer or decorator?
8
Sighthound virtual interior style concierge focuses on assisting clients define their style, make selections for their home, and advises on furniture placement. Our entire process occurs via email without stepping foot in your home. The client makes the final on what to purchases, when to order it, and actions all recommendations on their own. Sighthound operates under the interior decorator umbrella focusing on putting the finishing aesthetic touches on rooms.
An interior designer often begins work at the start of a construction project to develop technical specs and works with architects and builders to complete a build and sees the project through the decoration phase as well. They often coordinate the purchase, delivery, and installation of all product selections.
Sighthound works to ensure that all clients are satisfied. Our results are directly correlated to the quality of input provided by the client. Our contractual services such as full room styling and full home moodboards include a round of revisions. All sales are final. We begin work on your project as soon as payment is received and therefore do not offer and refunds.
