Featured Reviews for Interior Designers in Grayslake, IL

Michelle's Interiors
Interior Designers in Grayslake, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars4 April 2013
“We hired Michelle to help us redesign our master bath and are absolutely thrilled with the outcome. We wanted to create a spa like setting complete with a larger shower, luxury whirlpool and other creature comforts that women enjoy. Michelle came up with a stunning design that involved some changes of moving a wall, adding pocket doors and relocating some of the plumbing. Her plan included all the materials to be considered for the project and paint colors. We love the whirlpool that is large enough for two and has these fancy lights that change colors as the pool is on. Her design incorporated the existing master bedroom and she helped us with some ideas there also. Michelle is very creative, full of energy and an absolute joy to work with. There are many great designers in Chicago and she is definitely in that elite group of designers.”

Jgib Interiors

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars28 February 2014
“Jen is great to work with. She always has solid ideas and suggestions for my projects. Additionally, she always finds the time to work with my clients; be it an in-home consultation, creating an idea book, or sitting down for hours to go through lighting catalogs. I only have good things to say about her services and I will definitely continue to recommend her to our clients.”
Your Favorite Room By Cathy Zaeske
Interior Designers in Grayslake, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars22 June 2012
“I worked with Cathy Zaseke from "Your Favorite Room" on the re- design of my family room basement. Two years after I lost my husband to cancer, I decided that myself and my twin 8 year old boys needed a new fun place to hang out and was all ours. A new beginning. Cathy took my very bright fabric I found, and designed a bright, creative space, to really live and use every inch of my basement. She truly listened to me and my ideas, and came back with a complete plan and even stayed within my budget. She was great to work with, and I really appreciate all the hard work she put in to make this space our number one place to hang out.”
Interiors 4 U
Interior Designers in Grayslake, IL
Average rating: 4 out of 5 stars27 November 2012
“We hired Interiors 4 U to do a complete kitchen remodel. Cindy provided several optional designs and worked with us to find one that not only fit our needs, but also our budget. She also took the time help us find the best deals while still ensuring great quality products.”
Queen Bee Interiors
Interior Designers in Grayslake, 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.”
Expressive Interiors by Marietta Calas
Interior Designers in Grayslake, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 January 2013
“I have been working with Marietta for several years. I got connected with her through my niece who also has worked with her. She has helped me redecorate my family room, my bedroom and my bathroom. I don't have an extremely large budget and am terribly indecisive. Somehow Marietta seems to be able to work through all of that and come up with some fantastic ideas. One of the most important factors in dealing with Marietta is that I trust her implicitly. Her taste is impeccable, her vision extraordinary and her patience unending. I currently have another project on the horizon and will be using Marietta for that as well. I would not hesitate to recommend her to friends and family. A decision that we live with forever!!!!”
Laura Design Company
Interior Designers in Grayslake, 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!”
Elizabeth Paul Design LLC
Interior Designers in Grayslake, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 September 2022
“Elizabeth Paul Design began design work on my home in mid-July 2022 with an evaluation of current furnishings followed by sending pics of various furniture. A visit to the furniture store followed about a week later. Elizabeth has displayed her enthusiasm to fulfill the project and has the capability to understand her clients needs, i.e knowing type of furniture someone may desire. Thus far, the modern contemporary style has been the goal. A fresh coat of paint and new furniture, carpet, artwork and light fixtures in the living room, kitchen and den. The project is on pace not to overwhelm financially with a few more rooms at a later date. In addition, Elizabeth has been designing the garden/landscape as the exterior my home has minimal flowers or other vegetation. She is very knowledgable on coordinating colors and style etc. to meet a flow pattern room to room or grouping of exterior flowers/shrubs. I look forward to continuing working with Elizabeth for as long as the project will take....photos will be provided or upon request.”

Interior Designer FAQs
Interior design services in Grayslake 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.
  • Testimonials: Seek references or testimonials from past clients to assess client satisfaction. You can find these easily on Houzz from other homeowners that have used this pro.

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 Grayslake, IL interior designer according to the type of work you need.

Why should I hire an interior designer in Grayslake, 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 Grayslake, 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 Grayslake, 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 Grayslake, 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 Grayslake, 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.
