I need an inventive interior designer to craft a fresh, contemporary look for my client’s entire house without breaking the bank. The brief is simple: deliver a cohesive concept that balances style, day-to-day functionality, and smart spending. Scope • Whole-home concept covering living areas, bedrooms, kitchen, and any connecting spaces. • Modern, on-trend aesthetic that still feels warm and livable. • Practical materials and furnishings that are easy to source and budget-friendly. What I expect from you 1. A concise mood board and color palette that set the overall direction. 2. A room-by-room layout plan highlighting furniture placement, circulation, and storage opportunities. 3. Suggestions for cost-effective finishes, lighting fixtures, and décor items available locally or online. 4. A short shopping list (with links or product names) so we can price everything quickly. 5. A brief rationale explaining how each choice achieves the right mix of look, function, and savings. I welcome creative ideas—multi-purpose furniture hacks, clever storage nooks, or lighting tricks that make the space feel larger are all fair game—as long as they stay wallet-friendly. If you have a portfolio featuring stylish designs delivered on tight budgets, that’s exactly what I’d love to see.
