Starting at $250 for a consultation — at Purposely Placed Home Staging and Design, we transform homes into beautiful, functional spaces that truly reflect their owners. Whether you need a refresh for a single room or are designing a new home from the ground up, our flexible interior decorating services cater to your unique style, vision, and budget.
Our Approach to Interior Decorating
Step 1: Consultation ($250 – 2 Hours)
Our process starts with a detailed two-hour consultation, where we dive deep into:
- Your vision, preferences, and lifestyle
- Budget, timeline, and design goals
- Interior styles you love – from coastal and modern organic to contemporary, mid-century, and beyond
During this meeting, we explore inspiration and discuss tailored solutions that bring your dream space to life.
Step 2: Personalized Design Plan
Unlike traditional design firms that require large upfront payments or only focus on big-ticket projects, we offer a client-centered approach.
Our services range from:
- Selecting décor, artwork, lighting, and accessories
- Choosing finishes for new builds (tile, cabinetry, countertops, flooring)
- Rearranging furniture for a fresh new look
- Staging homes to enhance their market appeal
Whether you want to be hands-on or leave it all to us, we work around your comfort level to create a stress-free experience.
Step 3: Execution & Final Reveal
For local clients, we handle every detail, ensuring a seamless process. For longer-distance clients, we maintain constant communication via FaceTime, video calls, and emails. No matter where you are, you’ll feel involved every step of the way.
Flexible Pricing: Flat-Rate & Hourly Options
We offer two pricing structures based on project size:
✅ Flat-rate pricing for larger, more complex projects
✅ Hourly rates for smaller projects like updating décor or rearranging furniture
Unlike many design firms, we welcome small projects because we believe that even simple updates can make a dramatic impact.
Why Choose Purposely Placed Home?
- No Pressure, No Obligation: We require only a 50% deposit upfront, with the remainder due upon project completion.
- Flexible & Personalized Approach: We adapt to your needs, preferences, and budget—whether it’s a full makeover or a simple refresh.
- Remote-Friendly: We offer seamless virtual design services for long-distance clients through video calls and online communication.
- Stress-Free Experience: We make the process easy and enjoyable, ensuring a final reveal that exceeds your expectations.

Waterfront High-Rise Condo Staging on St. Armands
This private high-rise home near St. Armands Circle and Lido Beach, FL, needed a complete design refresh. We staged it with a coastal organic style, highlighting blue and green tones inspired by the water. The staging helped the home stand out on Zillow and MLS, with challenges such as tight cargo elevator access and blending old architectural features with modern furnishings.
