Featured Reviews for Interior Designers in Elmhurst, IL

Michelle Glennon Interior Design, Inc
Interior Designers in Elmhurst, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars14 October 2014
“Michelle was fantastic from the very beginning all the way through the final touches. I recently bought my first condo and had no idea where to start and I had no time to figure it out. After a short initial meeting where Michelle got to know me and my tastes, she took everything and ran with it. I loved every idea she had, every piece she picked out and when it was all said and done, I couldn't be happier. Everyone that comes over now immediately comments on the design of the place and I couldn't be more proud. I owe it all to Michelle!”
Queen Bee Interiors
Interior Designers in Elmhurst, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars13 March 2014
“I have worked with Laura since we bought our house 8 years ago. She has done an amazing job at helping us decorate to our tastes -- but at least 10x better than we could have done on our own. She's helped us understand the space, what furniture will fit in it, the colors that will work best, etc. I think she's actually saved us money because every choice is well thought out -- we do not have to later discard items that do not fit or that do not coordinate well. Laura is very efficient and professional. I cannot recommend her highly enough.”
Turn Key Designs
Interior Designers in Elmhurst, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars25 May 2022
“Turn Key was excellent to work with from start to finish! Was in need of a new closet design/build and the big box stores like Lowes and Home Depot didn’t offer nearly anything close to what Turn Key provided me. Both Courtney and Andrew were great from start to finish. They kept me in the loop during every step, whether it was with an email or a personal phone call. They both make you feel like family, and that trust goes a long way in business. I could not be more pleased with how everything turned out! Turn Key knows it’s stuff and they know it well!”

Janice Connolly Interiors
Interior Designers in Elmhurst, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars27 September 2016
“Janice does an excellent job of laying out the placement of all fixtures in all her bathroom and kitchen projects. Her level of detail makes it easy for the installer to complete the dream kitchen and/or bath she has designed. She has a great sense of color and design”
Wendy Nobriga, ASID
Interior Designers in Elmhurst, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 January 2016
“I used Wendy to help me pick out colors, tiles, etc. when I did a complete renovation of my condo 2 years ago. She was prompt, professional and we were both on the same page. She came to my house for the initial consultation. Then she came back with the samples and told me exactly the price and where to get everything. After everything was done, she drew out 3 different layouts so that I knew where to put my furniture, since that isn’t my specialty. She measured all of my furniture and mapped it out as well as gave me a couple suggestions to add a couple things. Then as one last thing, I hired Wendy to come help me hang my pictures. Some were by themselves and some were in clusters of up to 15 pictures. Everything came out beautiful. I highly recommend Wendy. She did a great job and i could never had done it by myself. I first found her on Angie’s List.”
Laura Design Company
Interior Designers in Elmhurst, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars19 September 2016
“I have hired this company now on two occasions. They continue to exceed my expectations! I highly recommend them on the basis of their follow through, creativity and being under budget both times. That's almost unheard of!”
LMR Designs, LLC
Interior Designers in Elmhurst, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars8 October 2012
“I had an excellent experience with LMR Designs. I trusted Linda completely with her design and color recommendations and everything came out better than I could have imagined. I was so pleased with the first project that Linda did for me that she subsequently picked out paint colors for every room in my house and re-designed my living room. I highly recommend Linda. She's professional in every sense of the word.”

“Highly recommend. We have used Julie's color design consulting regularly over the past several years. In each case she has successfully assisted in determining the right color scheme based on multiple variables. Julie's expertise covers allrange of situationss from just moving in to updating the overall look to preparing a home for sale. Each for these requires someone who understands the goal and can convert that knowledge into the perfect rselections leading to the desired esult. Julie is outstanding at each aspect in the process.”

Interior Designer FAQs
Interior design services in Elmhurst may be offered in different ways, including hourly rates, fixed fees, or a percentage of the project’s total cost, which will vary depending on the project itself. Interior design costs can range from £50 to £200 per hour, or a fixed fee between 5% and 20% of the total project cost. The key thing is to be very clear about your budget and your scope from the start, to ensure your designer can advise you on what is achievable. And remember, their contacts will probably save you money. A contingency fund of 10-15% is also recommended, especially if open-ended structural work is involved.
When considering hiring an interior designer, you can ask the following:
  • Experience: Ask about the designer’s background, education, experience, and previous similar projects.
  • Design Process: Gain insights into the designer’s project approach, design philosophy, preferred style, and how they incorporate client preferences. Review their Houzz portfolio to evaluate their design style and compatibility with your tastes.
  • Scope of Services: Inquire about the interior designer’s services, including project management, material/furniture sourcing, and whether they offer full-service design.
  • Budget and Timeline: Discuss your project budget and the designers capability to work within it. Ask how they handle unexpected delays & additional costs.

What’s the difference between interior designers and interior decorators?


These two closely related professions are often mistaken for the same thing, however, there are some significant differences to be aware of before deciding which to hire. An interior designer, sometimes known as an interior architect, can run full renovation and structural design projects, and will use specialised knowledge of interior architecture, construction systems and components, building regulations, materials and furnishings to arrive at your dream home design. Interior design companies are able to plan spaces and room functions down to the last detail, and can help design and renovate interiors, from initial planning phases to placing the last decorative accessory. A decorator on the other hand will typically be involved only in the aesthetic layer, the “look and feel” of a space, and won’t be able to assist in renovations that require structural work. Interior decorators normally come on board after all structural work is complete. So choose your Elmhurst, IL interior designer according to the type of work you need.

Why should I hire an interior designer in Elmhurst, IL?


They say life is what happens while you’re busy making plans. Some of us are just too preoccupied with a career and/or family to think about colour schemes, wallpaper, flooring and lighting. A professional interior designer in Elmhurst, IL can save you bags of time, stress and months, if not years, of living in a half-finished home. It’s their job to stay on top of the latest trends and to have contacts and visual references coming out of their ears. Interior designers can also save you money, by sourcing products via trade contacts or offering affordable alternatives to blowout iconic designs.

How do I choose the right Elmhurst, IL interior designer for my home?


Good design and visual inspiration are all around us. Start by searching for interior architects and interior designers in Elmhurst, IL on Houzz. Keep a lookout for images of rooms and features that you really like and save them to your Ideabooks to begin to develop an understanding of your own style and taste. If you notice that photos from the same interior design companies are popping up regularly then that is a good hint that they could be your perfect design match. You can feel most confident if you hire an interior designer or interior design company in Elmhurst, IL that has completed work similar to the look and feel that you desire, whether that is a mix-and-match lounge oozing mid-century modern style, a pale and interesting minimalist bedroom with shots of colour, or a beautiful space inspired by Scandinavian design.

You may want to check if your designer is a member of the Society of British and International Design (SBID) or The British Institute of Interior Design (BIID). Both are a benchmark of quality and reliability. And check if your interior designers can offer you the right type of service – some companies are design only, while others can oversee the whole project. If it is the latter that you seek, make sure any sub-contractors used are fully accredited and it is clear who they are supposed to report to. If late alterations are made to the plan, the contractor should receive a change order, thus minimising the risk of a dispute about what was and wasn’t agreed to after the start date.
