OUR PROCESS
We’ll start with a phone consultation and questionnaire. We get to know you, your design dreams, a little about your likes and dislikes, how you live and/or work in your space and your hopes for how you wish to use your space more optimally. It also gives us an opportunity to share our ideas and design experience, as well as discuss the scope of your project. During this phase, we will bring awareness to the potential cost of the project and rough budget goals through a short exercise on the current market cost of furniture and accessories.

OUR PROCESS
If you are ready to truly have a full-service design experience then hand us the reins and we will make your design dreams come true! In this phase, the design contract is officially signed to work with Stone House Collective. We will also discuss the total projected costs, estimate our design fees, and provide an estimate of the scope of the project including projected timelines and overall costs. We do our best to provide you with an itemized budget and costs and keep you informed if these prices shift over time. In this step, we provide you with a payment schedule for the remainder of the project.

OUR PROCESS
We discuss our workflow and review the scope of the project. You will meet the design team and your assigned project manager, and learn everyone’s roles and action items. You will also receive some design homework – showing us what you like and don’t like.
Additionally, we provide a personalized demo and onboarding session onto our online customized client portal. This client portal will house all of your contracts, mood boards, invoices, schedules.

OUR PROCESS
We get to work sourcing furnishings, paint colors, artwork, lighting, window treatments, furniture layout plans, and finding all the decorative items for your home. The end result is a complete digital mood board that outlines our full vision for the project. This includes a complete design vision with specific paint colors, curated furnishings, window treatments, artwork, flooring samples, lighting selections, furnishings, layout suggestions, and styling accessories.
Once our mood boarding is complete, we share our ideas with the client during an in-person client presentation, so you are able to see and touch materials. We will have finished selections and samples available as well as upholstery selections to view in our showroom.

After consulting with Anna, at my home, I felt energized and excited about the projects ahead. We painted walls and furniture with her color choices, purchased curtains, bedding, lamps and pillows all based on her recommendations. Our upstairs is sparkling and inviting now. I love how the guest room looks and so did our week-end guests! Thank you for the very important part you played in it! It’s fun to be able to proceed with confidence, having all the advise and suggestions you made. I think you have an incredible gift. Thank you for sharing it.

Anna made our house finally feel like our home! Stone House Collective is an absolute DREAM. Anna transformed several boring rooms in our house into beautiful spaces that feel cohesive, personal, and comfortable. Everyone on Anna’s team was great to work with and they kept us informed every step of the way. The final result was an incredible custom design built around our personalities, installed and styled perfectly. Nothing cookie-cutter here. Trust the process, and Anna will give you a beautiful home, I promise.

My business partner and I hired Stone House to stage the last two listings we had in Whitefish Bay, and we couldn’t be any happier with how everything turned out! They were professional, timely, courteous, and just plain excellent at staging/designing. Buyer, seller, and realtor reactions to their work has been so positive that we continually are asked who staged/designed this home? Lately, I have been handing out more Stone House Stage and Design business cards than my own…but am happy to do it as they are a pleasure to partner up with on our clients’ homes!
