• The goals of this service vary greatly from client to client. We invite you to discuss the support you’re looking for on the initial call. Unlike SR, as a concierge, your designer can go onsite if projects are local.

    A major indicator of success with this service is our clients’ level of partnership. DC is very client-driven, with Sparrow as design advisor. This means, our clients are responsible for managing all project parties and for tracking, updating and communicating all finish decisions to the contractor prior to and during construction. With consultation, Sparrow does not create construction or permit plans or work directly with contractors or fabricators before or during construction. This is reserved for full-service design.

    If you don’t have the time or desire to manage your project, and your budget meets our minimum for Full Service Design or Styling, we invite you to learn more on our Services page and in our FAQs!

  • This is an hourly service offering that begins with a retainer. At a starting minimum of 10 hours to be used within 30 days, it is $1,750 for residential projects and $2,000 for commercial. If we expect the scope to take more time, we will provide an estimate. In our experience, consultations for kitchens and bathrooms take at least 15-20 hours, and you may elect to purchase more to secure additional time beyond 30 days as well as to reduce the number of invoices. However there is no requirement to purchase more than the minimum.

    Depending on the number of hours purchased, the initial retainer is good for 30-60 days from our start time. If you wish to continue with support beyond that time and those hours, we ask you to purchase one more bank of hours. By doing so, we may extend the contract. Remaining hours will be billed when the work is complete. Concierge services don’t exceed 120 days.

    This offering is highly client-driven, and deliverables depend on the client and the project. With the short timeline, we recommend being organized with what you need from us to make the most of your investment!

consultation for home and business owners, providing exclusive access to a sparrow designer for your unique project

As your concierge designer, we support the design phase of a new build or remodel by reviewing floorplans and recommending finishes such as tile, countertop, paint, wallpaper, light fixtures, flooring style, plumbing trim and furniture and accessories. We shrink the overwhelming universe of options and put together designer-caliber combinations to ensure your remodel will be confident, beautiful and enduring.

As design advisors, we work with our clients’ drafters or architects to consult on and review construction and lighting plans, discuss layouts, and provide materials to your drafter for color elevations and renderings. If you are interested in any custom features such as built-ins, furniture or window treatments, we can provide recommendations on styles and fabrics and support you in making decisions with your fabricator.

If you are looking for even more design oversight, custom design, and project management all the way through construction and furniture installation, we recommend full-service design.
