Frequently Asked Questions

An interior designer does much more than just help choose colors or furniture. We get involved from the very beginning—working closely with architects, builders, and remodelers to ensure your space is functional, structurally sound, and beautiful.

When remodeling a kitchen, bathroom or basement, planning is crucial for making sure everything on your wish list fits seamlessly into the design. Beyond planning, there are countless materials, finishes, and details to select and coordinate—which can be overwhelming and time-consuming.

As interior designers, we handle all those decisions and purchases for you, making the entire process easier and more enjoyable—especially for busy professionals who want a beautiful result without the stress of managing the project themselves.

Interior design is about how a space functions, flows, and is built. It often starts in the planning phase—collaborating with architects and builders to create room layouts, ensure structural safety, plan lighting & plumbing locations, and make sure every element works together.

Interior decorating, on the other hand, focuses on the look and feel after the structure is set: choosing paint colors, furniture, window treatments, artwork, and accessories to style the space beautifully.

At Magda Interiors, we do both: designing spaces that work well and decorating them to reflect your style.

The cost of interior design depends on several factors—like the size and complexity of the project, and the materials and finishes you choose, since those play an important role in the overall design.

At Magda Interiors, we offer set pricing per room to give our clients a clear starting point. But because every space and client wish list is unique, we review each project individually and tailor the final price to fit your specific needs and vision.

Absolutely! At Magda Interiors, we work with projects of all sizes and budgets. We listen carefully to your needs and priorities to create a beautiful design that fits your financial goals without compromising on quality or style.

The timeline depends on the scope of work. The design phase usually takes about 4 to 12 weeks, depending on the size and complexity of the project.

The remodeling and construction phase also varies based on what’s involved. When we start working together, we create a detailed timeline tailored to your project, schedule, and expectations—so you always know what to expect at each step.

At Magda Interiors, we handle most of the purchasing for our clients—from materials and fixtures to furniture and accessories. This makes the process easier for you and saves time.

However, if you’d like to be more involved or have a favorite store, artisan, or brand you’d like to include, you’re always welcome to make those purchases directly. We’re happy to collaborate and make sure everything fits seamlessly into the overall design.

Our main focus is always our clients. We love getting to know each homeowner personally learning about your lifestyle, tastes, and what truly makes a space feel like home for you. Building that relationship and understanding your story is what makes each project unique, and it’s an honor to help bring your vision to life.

At the same time, we also work closely with builders and remodelers—helping bring client’s ideas together seamlessly or making sure new-build homes are beautiful and market-ready. Both collaborations are incredibly rewarding for us as designers.

We’re here to guide you through every step of the journey—from the initial design concepts to managing the entire project. Our goal is to handle all the details of design and remodeling so you can relax and enjoy the process, while still having opportunities to provide input and make decisions that reflect your style and needs.

At Magda Interiors, we focus on creating livable, timeless interiors with clean lines and classic design. Our goal is for every client to truly feel at home, no matter the style we choose together.

We listen closely to your preferences and tailor finishes to match your unique taste and the character of your home. It’s especially important to us that the interior complements the exterior—whether that means honoring historic charm or embracing modern simplicity—so every space feels cohesive and authentic.

My inspiration comes from many places—beautiful architecture, the colors and textures found in nature, and staying current with design magazines and industry trends. I also love exploring Pinterest and design platforms to discover fresh ideas and creative details. Combining these sources helps me create unique, personalized spaces for each client.

Before our first meeting, I ask clients to fill out a questionnaire. This helps me get to know you better and understand the goals you want to accomplish for your home.

Even if you’re not sure about certain details yet, don’t worry—I’ll guide you through everything during our meeting. The questionnaire and conversation will help you start thinking about areas you might not have considered before, making the design process smoother and more focused.
