Today we are exploring a subject very close to our hearts, online interior design - what it is, why it’s gaining popularity and how people like us can help you.

Thank goodness, it's February, we’ve finally got there - the longest month ever has passed and we can hopefully look forward to better times in 2021! For nearly a year (on and off) we have all been cooped up in our homes, and have felt cut off from friends and family - but it’s not all bad news. Many of us have been creative and tried new things. Either learning to bake banana bread (who hasn’t?!) or even shopping online for the first time. And we have all had to learn how to navigate this new world and identify what is important to us.

With this need to adapt, we are lucky technology is so advanced and we are able to still see our loved ones, albeit through a screen. Most of us have mastered Zoom and learnt what good lighting can do for us on video calls! And of course the importance of a well styled bookcase in the background. However I’m sure we can all remember the unfortunate few who’ve been caught out by forgetting the camera is on or their child walking in during very important meetings and entertaining Mum’s work colleagues.

Every part of our lives has been enhanced by the internet and the world of Interior Design is no different. The rise of online interior design means that we are able to pick the brain of an expert without leaving the comfort of our homes. Could the next new thing you try be working with an online interior designer?

So what is online interior design and how can it help you?

Online interior design is becoming ever more popular as we become more familiar with technology. It means you can talk and engage with a real person, via a video call who will become your designer. They take a real interest in you and your project, much as a traditional interior designer would and work hard to deliver the perfect design using technology to help you visualise the end result.

If you are looking to change aspects of your home but have no idea where to start online interior design could be the solution for you. Interior designers are professionals who interpret your dream space ideas and turn them into reality. They take on the hard work of sifting through the endless options of furniture, accessories and paint colours and present to you a design that fits in with the brief you gave them.

At The Living House your designer will send over a personalised moodboard, a carefully curated shopping list, a floor plan and a 2D visualisation. Along with styling tips and advice, it will be very clear how to bring your design to life when you purchase a Maxi Living design package.

Simplify the process

Often people do not have the time or energy to design their own homes and that is why they might turn to interior designers. It is time to simplify the process and hand over the control to the interior professionals who can put in the time and effort to get the design right and leave you with more time to enjoy the things you like to do.

As we are online we are able to deliver a full design within just two weeks and we even have a fast track service for those of you on a tight deadline.

From the comfort of your home

What better place to be when having your video call appointment than in the space you are wanting to change? We will set up a video call appointment with the best interior designer for you. We will look at your room and really understand what you want to achieve. Now’s the time to share anything you’ve seen on Pinterest. We will work collaboratively with the Ideas you’ve been collecting to create your brief.

It is often less expensive than traditional interior design

Traditional interior design can be very expensive as well as a lengthy experience. We are here to offer affordable, accessible interior design which is more convenient to the customer. We understand that it is important for everyone to have a home they love and feel comfortable in and we want to help people whatever their budget happens to be.

We have three design packages available. Our Mini Living is perfect for those who want a couple of answers to very direct questions. Our Midi Living is great for smaller projects when you have most of your key items but need the extras to finish it off. Finally our Maxi Living is for larger projects when you're changing most elements in your room.

Unbiased expert advice

With so much inspiration at our fingertips , from Pinterest and Instagram, it can be fantastic scrolling through and learning from others. But for many people the sheer amount of content can be overwhelming. This is where we can help you. We can offer unbiased advice, narrow down your choices and truly select what is best for you and the space in which you live.

I hope this gives you confidence to try an online interior design service, and helps to demystify the process.
