Hearth Homes Interiors
Interior Designers in Santa Ynez, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars8 November 2021
“Olivia and Katie are fantastic! Their sense of style and help with arranging rooms is second to none. They also had some great ideas for adding special pieces to my home at all budget levels. My living room was awkward with no real center of attraction, but Olivia moved my furniture around so that it worked. The backsplash tiles they recommended when I remodeled my kitchen are always being complemented ! Thank you. Highly recommend.”

Kisha Gianni Designs

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 October 2016
“I hired Kisha to help me with a year-long major house remodel, and she's been fantastic! She not only has a great eye for design, but she's also sensitive to cost constraints, and she's been an essential sounding-board for me on literally every aspect of the project. I would have been lost without her, and I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat!”

Nanci Paige Design
Interior Designers in Santa Ynez, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 November 2014
“We had Nanci Paige Designs do three projects for us. The first was a complete re-modeling of one of our aesthetic medical practices. She transformed a dungy, cluttered mess into a sleek, modern and attractive facility that continues to produce the desired results for the staff and, even more importantly, for the patients. The goal for the re-model was to create a very upscale office and, at the same time, help the patients relax and know they're in very good hands. The relaxing part is seen when every new patient forgets about their fears and begins to share what they'd like to accomplish with their appearance. The upscale goal was realized when a long time patient walked into the new office and said, "I guess you're going to be raising your prices with the way this place looks!" We then had her to an interior design job with a our mid-century modern home in Palm Springs. She transformed that house into a modern and warm home with vibrant colors and sleek furnishings all balanced with well placed natural wood accent pieces. She accomplished both of our goals of having an updated version of mid-century modern furnishings to complete the home and create a cool and relaxing environment. Accomplishing just one of the goals would have been difficult to do, achieving both goals achieved the next-to-impossible task. Finally we had her design the remodeling of our spa and salon business interiors interior in Palm Springs. Again, the magic happened the space was transformed in color and furnishings that improved the presentation for clients and supported price increases for the services. Two more medical practices are going on the drawing boards and a new home design project is going into her capable and talented hands. She always takes the project way past our imagination and puts it where it really should have been from the beginning.”

“Emily is incredible. She is organized, talented, and a great communicator. She is able to manage big and small projects and stay within budget. She is able to vision a project from start to finish and then deliver amazing results. We have hired her for many projects and they have always exceeded expectations.”
Andrea Schumacher Interiors
Interior Designers in Santa Ynez, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars4 October 2012
“We are working with Andrea on our new home. We have been very pleased working with her. While her designs are beautiful and unique, she is also great at working to customize designs to end on compromises between my husband and myself. We were initially overwhelmed with the process of hiring a designer, but Andrea quickly set us at ease. She also was completely willing to accommodate our desire to break the process down into many small projects--which is exactly what we needed! We would highly recommend her services!”
Mike-o Design
Interior Designers in Santa Ynez, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars23 July 2015
“We started with just a kitchen remodel-to take down a wall and open things up. Mike came in with such a vision!! We ended up opening up another wall to make the entire kitchen, living, dining area look bigger and totally fabulous!! The old furniture went out. Mike helped us pick out some spectacular pieces that look awesome in our remodeled areas. He worked with the art work we wanted to accent and made it pop. We absolutely love the end result!!”

Interior Designer FAQs
Interior design services in Santa Ynez 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.

  • 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.

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 Santa Ynez, CA interior designer according to the type of work you need.

Why should I hire an interior designer in Santa Ynez, CA?


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 Santa Ynez, CA 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 Santa Ynez, CA interior designer for my home?


Good design and visual inspiration are all around us. Start by searching for interior architects and interior designers in Santa Ynez, CA 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 Santa Ynez, CA 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.
