Remote vs. Full-Service Interior Design: Which One Fits Your Life?

At Realm Design Co., we believe that beautiful, livable spaces should feel within reach — no matter where you are or how involved you want to be in the design process. ✨

Whether you’re ready for a full transformation, need a flexible game plan, or just want help getting pointed in the right direction, we offer tailored services to meet you exactly where you are: Remote Interior Design, Full-Service Interior Design, Video Design Sessions, and Concepts + Collections.

Wondering which option is right for you? Let’s break it down.

What is Remote Interior Design?

Remote (or virtual) interior design brings our expertise directly to you — no in-person meetings required. It’s perfect if you're looking for a fully personalized plan but want the freedom to implement it on your own timeline.

Here’s how it works:

• You share your vision, photos, measurements, and inspiration.

• We create a complete design plan tailored to your needs and style.

• You receive a detailed space layout, curated furnishings, and clickable shopping links to easily bring the design to life.

  
  

Remote Design is ideal if you:

✔️ Want a professionally curated design but prefer DIY implementation.

✔️ Live outside our local service area.

✔️ Feel confident managing orders and installations once you have a clear plan.

What is Full-Service Interior Design?

Full-Service Design is our most hands-on, concierge-level experience — perfect for large projects and full-home transformations.

Here’s what to expect:

• We handle everything: design concepts, sourcing, procurement, project management, and final styling.

• You experience a seamless process without the overwhelm, with every decision and detail expertly managed for you.

• The final result is a move-in-ready home that feels beautifully intentional — and entirely yours.

• 
  

Full-Service Design is ideal if you:

✔️ Are remodeling, building, or furnishing multiple rooms.

✔️ Prefer a stress-free, fully-managed experience.

✔️ Want one team to handle every piece, from start to finish.

What Are Video Sessions?

Video Sessions offer focused, flexible design advice — perfect when you need help making confident decisions or want a professional eye on your project.

Here’s how it works:

• Book a one-hour Zoom consultation.

• We’ll tackle your biggest questions: layouts, material selections, furniture pieces, styling advice, and more.

• You leave with clarity, next steps, and renewed confidence.

• 
  

Video Sessions are ideal if you:

✔️ Are mid-project and feel stuck or overwhelmed.

✔️ Need help weighing options or making final selections.

✔️ Want fast, actionable advice without committing to a full design package.

What Are Concepts + Collections?

Concepts + Collections are a quick, creative way to jumpstart your project with professional direction — without full layouts or renderings.

Here’s how it works:

• You share your vision, needs, and inspiration.

• We create a personalized Concept + Collection board that includes suggested furnishings, finishes, and a curated color palette to guide your design.

• You take it from there — sourcing and styling at your own pace, with a cohesive plan already in place.

• 
  

Concepts + Collections are ideal if you:

✔️ Want to DIY but need a strong, professionally curated starting point.

✔️ Feel confident pulling your space together once you have the right direction.

✔️ Want expert design guidance without investing in full layouts or renderings.

Which Interior Design Service is Right for You?

When deciding between Remote Design, Full-Service Design, Video Sessions, or Concepts + Collections, it helps to ask:

• How much support do you want or need?

  (Video Sessions and Concepts + Collections offer flexible support. Remote Design offers a full plan. Full-Service offers full execution.)

• What’s the size and complexity of your project?

  (A quick refresh? A Concept + Collection or Video Session might be enough. A full remodel? Full-Service Design is likely the best fit.)

• How involved do you want to be?

  (If you love managing things with expert guidance, Concepts + Collections or Remote Design are great options. If you prefer to hand it off, Full-Service is ideal.)

• Where are you located?

  (Remote Design, Video Sessions, and Concepts + Collections are available no matter where you are.)
