INTERIOR DESIGN

At Maeve Carr Design, we believe that exceptional interiors begin with a meaningful connection—between the designer, the client, and the space. Our process is highly personalized, collaborative, and grounded in both artistic vision and practical expertise. Here’s how we bring your home to life:

HOW IT WORKS

I. Discovery & Consultation

We begin with an in-depth consultation to understand your lifestyle, aesthetic preferences, and goals. Whether you’re moving, renovating, or reimagining a space, we take the time to listen and learn about your daily routines, inspirations, and personal style. We also assess any existing pieces—art, furniture, or architectural features— that are important to you and you’d like to incorporate. This will determine our scope of work.

2. Artistic Direction & Concept

As follow-up, we will create a conceptual mood board, and depending on your vision, we will either begin with a curated piece of artwork that inspires the overall design, or we may develop a concept and bring in artwork as a finishing, defining touch. The mood board will be supported by a color palette, spatial vision, material inspiration and a materials list.

The goal is to align on a cohesive, calming, and functional direction.

3. Space Planning & Design Development

We work together with our trusted architects and contractors to create layouts that optimize flow, function, and style. During this phase, we handle any necessary permits and deliver detailed plans, including furniture, lighting, finishes, and materials.

4. Collaboration & Refinement

Client collaboration is central to our work. We present our design proposals and encourage feedback, edits, and questions. Many of our clients find joy and even discover their own creative instincts during this phase. We refine the plan together, ensuring it reflects your vision and needs perfectly.

5. Procurement & Installation

We handle sourcing, purchasing, and coordinating with trusted vendors and craftspeople to bring your design to life. Whether integrating your existing pieces or starting anew, we ensure a seamless execution with attention to detail every step of the way.

6. Styling, Art Curation & Finishing Touches

The final layer includes styling the space, placing artwork, and arranging finishing details to create a cohesive and inviting home. Art may be selected or commissioned to complement the interior, or existing pieces may be integrated in new and thoughtful ways.

7. The Reveal

We guide you through your new space—complete, refined, and deeply personal. Every project is a shared journey, and the reveal is a celebration of your story, taste, and style—translated into a home that feels uniquely yours.
