Interior Project Planner

Lock the look and the scope before anything is ordered.

• Generate three concepts and pick a direction
• Set a working budget with a 10–15% contingency
• Build a room measurement sheet
• Confirm the feature list you actually want to change

Buy long-lead items first; everything else follows.

• Order upholstery, rugs and lighting (longest lead times)
• Approve paint colors on a sample board in the real room light
• Schedule the painter or block your own weekends

Work top down: ceiling, walls, then floors and furnishings.

• Paint and wall finishes
• Swap lighting and hardware
• Install window treatments
• Place furniture, rugs and art

Punch list, touch-ups and the final styling pass.

• Touch-up paint
• Adjust drapery and shades
• Final styling and photos
