Faced with this task, I looked to e-interior design services for help. You may have seen ads about them in your inbox, Instagram, or on flyers at your local big brand furniture store. These services promise to make revamping your home as easy as a few clicks on a computer, so I put a few of them to the test to see if paying someone to restyle your house is worth the investment.
For the project, my boyfriend and I were willing to invest up to $3,000 on new furnishings and art (about a fourth of that budget I anticipate to make back in selling furniture we’re replacing). Our small (but reasonably sizable, for New York City) apartment needed the most work in the living / dining room, which is open to the kitchen. We cook at home a decent amount, but never have enough people over for a formal dining space. We do have friends over frequently to hang, drink, and play games, so we wanted the room to feel light, bright, and easy for multiple people to maneuver around.
Happen to have your heart set on something special; a rear master suite, a 3-car garage, a double sized walk-in-robe? Our new home designs are flexible so you don’t have to be. Each of our house plans can be customised to suit your lifestyle, turned into right or left designs, or built as-is if you have fallen head over heels with a particular floor plan.
Fed up with free tools, I gave paid services a go. I was first introduced to e-interior design startup Havenly a few years ago at SXSW. The service promises to create a mood board, layout, and a shopping list to help make implementing the design easy — all under a flat rate instead of an hourly bill you might get with an in-person designer. (Havenly starts at $19 for a consultation, while the full experience is $169 for a bare room, with help on where to lay out each piece.)
Sure, our new home designs are among the best in Perth, but the real magic happens when you turn the key and start living amongst the smartest extras, inclusions, and upgrades in town. Because every new home designed and built by Smart Homes for Living is decked out with high spec inclusions. As standard! So you don’t have to fork out any extra to get a feature rendered front, Colorbond roof cover, Deluxe 900mm stainless steel kitchen appliances – the list goes on.
I applaud the folks working with AR to create interesting use cases, like on-location work training. But kitschy applications like this are just… not very fun to use? Holding my arm out for minutes on end gets tiring fast, especially when you have to browse through thousands of items just to find the one thing that might work in your space.
