FULL SERVICE HOLISTIC DESIGN


Sally Josephine Design's holistic design services, have a similar process to my interior decorating services but include a deeper look in the elements that concentrate on your physical and mental well-being and the energy within your home.

 

Through our journey together, my intention is to guide you to become more empowered, unite you with your true self, and assist you in creating your own sacred sanctuary.
 

If our home environment is out of balance, our health & well-being can be seriously impacted. Taking a holistic approach to your design project, each space is carefully thought out to enhance not only the flow and aesthetics but to also offer solutions for your space to enhance your health, well-being, and relationships.

 

I have always been extremely intuitive of a person's emotions and feelings, which has served my clients well, when they have needed something extra, but were not sure what that extra was. It may be that you have moved into a new house and something just feels off about the space or you have accumulated clutter and you are just too overwhelmed with where to start. There may be parts of your home that you may feel are really affecting your physical and mental well-being. This is where I can come in and support you through the whole process.

  • Products that you have agreed to order through me, I will then go to my trusted suppliers and get invoices from them.

  • This part of the interior design process can take a few days.

  • This is because some projects, there could be 20 different suppliers or more, that I am acquiring products from.

  • Most products I will specify through my trade suppliers, not retailers. This will get you better pricing, because I receive trade discounts from my suppliers, which I share with you.

  • I will collate all of the supplier invoices and then prepare one invoice for you to pay me.

  • Once I have received your payment, I will lock in all orders with my suppliers and organise deliveries of the products to your home.

  • Larger items like furniture can be delivered to your home. This will also depend on how far along in the construction phase we are in. I will organise for large items to be placed on hold at suppliers or help organise another holding facility if needed.

  • Smaller items and accessories will be delivered to Sally Josephine Designs until install and styling day.

INSTALL & STYLING

  • Yessss! Install Day has arrived.

  • This is where I come to your home and put all the furniture in its place, as per the layout we provided in the concept documents.

    • Artwork Installer

    • Electrician

    • Audiovisual Technician

    • Window Treatment Installer

  • Some items may arrive at different stages due to stock availability or delays and some larger pieces of furniture might already be unpacked already.
