Whether you are designing a room for a home being built from scratch or redecorating one you currently live in, hiring our talented Lake of the Ozarks interior designers can make the entire process go a lot smoother. The professional help from John Elliott Interiors can also save you time and money in the end. Here are 5 reasons why hiring an interior designer to help with your project is a great idea.

Save Money
Some people want to skip hiring an interior designer because they don't want to pay extra for that service. In reality, it could end up saving you money in the long run. Our training means we have the knowledge to make that idea in your head come to life and our experience allows us to avoid many costly mistakes the untrained eye might make. Certain pieces may look gorgeous to you in the showroom, but once it's in the space you are furnishing, it might not work as well as imagined. An interior designer will be able to tell you this before any purchase is made.

Another way that this professional will save you money is by keeping you on the budget you set. We will be able to find the right pieces needed to complete the look without "breaking the bank." Also, an interior designer's special touch can increase the overall value of your home when you're ready to sell it.


Save Time
You're also going to save a lot of time when you hire an interior designer. We can make a professional assessment at the beginning of the project and create a solid plan and timeline for executing it. Since this is our job, past experiences help us to avoid common decorating mistakes that the average homeowner might make. Our interior designers will also be able to anticipate certain obstacles that could arise before they are a problem.

You might have to spend a lot of time finding the perfect pieces to use in your new interior design. A professional will already be aware of what is available and bring you those perfect pieces to choose from, eliminating lengthy searches. You can still make the final decision but without all of the extra time involved searching for them. 


Enjoy a Smoother Experience
As a part of the industry, interior designers have contacts we already know and trust to reach out to for the things your rooms will need. This also comes in handy should any problems arise because we'll know just who to call to get it handled.

We also know the lingo when it comes to talking to contractors, architects, and others involved when you are building a new home. We are able to imagine the space more accurately even before it is completed and work ahead on the process. 


Acquire Unique Pieces
Our luxury furniture store at the Lake of the Ozarks has access to many unique pieces of furniture, fabrics, and home decor that the general public does not. Just because you don't see it in the showroom, that doesn't mean we can't get it! From your description of what you have in mind, we can find items that will be unique to your home. If you're not really sure what you want, our experts are excellent at figuring that out for you simply from your list of likes and dislikes. 


Get That "Wow" Factor
Last, but certainly not least, you're going to end up with rooms that literally make people think "Wow!" when they walk inside. (They might even say it out loud!) Interior design is a delicate balance of both art and science. We know how to find items that are beautiful plus how to make them work together so it seems as if they were made for each other. If you experience that wow factor simply looking through our portfolio of previous work, then you can be assured we can do the same thing for your home.
