FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

An interior designer is involved in the full design process—often from the ground up—including space planning, architectural finishes, and structural elements. We collaborate with architects and builders, select materials, and create comprehensive design plans. An interior decorator typically focuses on the aesthetics of a space—like paint, furniture, and accessories—once the foundational elements are already in place. Our firm handles both, but our training and approach are rooted in full-scale design solutions.

We make the process as hands-on or hands-off as you’d like. After an initial vision and discovery phase, our team takes the lead—managing all selections, orders, logistics, and installations. You’ll receive curated design presentations and final approvals, but we handle the day-to-day so you can enjoy the process without stress.

We work on projects of all sizes—whether it’s a full home design, a new build, or a single-room refresh. Every space matters, and we apply the same thoughtful process to ensure it’s cohesive, beautiful, and functional, no matter the scale.

We guide you through every step. With paint, we consider lighting, finishes, and the overall mood to build a palette that elevates your space. For furniture, we provide layout plans and curate custom pieces from our network of trade-only vendors. You’ll see everything in a personalized design presentation before any selections are finalized.

Full-service design includes complete project management (from concept to completion) as well as sourcing and purchasing all materials, furnishings, fixtures, and finishes on your behalf. We conduct site visits throughout the project and provide hands-on installation to ensure every detail is executed according to plan.

All invoices must be paid in full before any orders can be placed. This ensures timely delivery and avoids disruptions to the project timeline.

MEET The Designer

Hello friend

My passion for design began in childhood. Playhouse, sketching floor plans, and choosing polka dot wallpaper and white wicker furniture for my bedroom at age ten. Creativity was always part of my life, nurtured by my mother who taught me to sew, sketch, and even craft stained glass.

Though I initially pursued a career in medical sales, I eventually found my way back to design. What began as a creative outlet soon became a calling. Naming Tilden Studios after my daughter is a tribute to the creative spirit that runs through our family.

Today, interior design is not just my profession…it’s a way of creating spaces that reflect the people who live in them. I believe every home should feel personal, functional, and inspired by the rhythms of everyday life.

Creating a mood board is easier than you think. ✨

Step 1: Define the mood. Dark academia, modern & clean, or anything in between.
Step 2: Choose a foundation. This is when we think about color palette and key materials.
Step 3: Build the layers with textures, patterns, and finishes.
Step 4: Refine & edit. If it doesn’t fit, it doesn’t stay.
