Our Process

Let’s Schedule

———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————-

To initiate a design consultation, simply call our studio line 651-219-4597 or visit the Contact tab to send us an email!

Let’s Chat

——————————————————————————————————————

The initial design appointment is typically at your home or business, where we will collectively talk together about your project in the spaces we will be designing for. Merriment is a fully customized design firm, specializing in both residential and commercial design. During this time, feel free to ask any questions of us while we get to know you and your project. As your personal design team, we know you place enormous trust in us to bring your vision to life. Our first priority when meeting you is building a strong communication foundation. We do this by getting to know more about you, your style and needs, and your project scope.  We may ask your permission to take photos and measurements at your home to use later on when crafting your design. This appointment is 1-2 hours in duration. 

Let’s Collaborate

——————————————————————————————————————

Now that we’ve become better acquainted with your style and design needs, the fun begins! During this second phase, we will present the design schematics which may include floorplans, inspiration photos, and other selections such as furnishings, lighting, wall coverings and so forth. These tools will allow you to visualize the overall look and feel of your master plan, while at the same time provide the design team with feedback as we delve deeper into the design process. This first appointment in the second phase often takes place inside our design studio where we welcome your participation as we build upon the creative vision in real time.

 

Let’s Finalize

——————————————————————————————————————-

Depending on the scope of your project, you may meet with our design team for additional meetings to finalize your design selections. Once those are feeling perfect, we will order the items and keep track of your order status along the way. Your furniture items will be received at our climate-controlled warehouse where they undergo a thorough inspection, and will be stored until ready for installation. Smaller items will be shipped directly to Merriment where they will also undergo a thorough inspection upon arrival. As your project progresses, we will keep you apprised as to the status of your deliveries. 

Let’s Reveal

——————————————————————————————————————

This is where your vision comes to life. You can be assured your design team will have designed specifically for you, with your aesthetic preferences in mind. We approach each person and project with a fresh eye, creating unique and exceptional spaces that produce an environment which will speak wellbeing and happiness for you. During the Grand Reveal (which may be several times in the project, or all at once,) your beautiful spaces will be furnished and accessorized with care, with window treatments, wallpaper, and lighting installed, and more as your  project is completed. We hope every client is filled with satisfaction, and with a sense of Merriment, or joy, in their newly designed spaces.
