Residential Design

Welcome to Plumeria Studios

At Plumeria Studios, we believe people live happier, healthier, and more fulfilled lives in a home that has a well-designed interior.  To us, a well-designed interior isn’t just a beautiful image you might see in a magazine.  It must also be highly functional and authentic, uniquely representing both the homeowners and the home itself.

Our homes have a tremendous impact on us, both physically and mentally.  A “tired” or disorganized space can leave you feeling tired or disorganized too, creating added and unnecessary stress.  Your home should reflect who you are in a seemingly effortless way.  It should be a retreat that brings feelings of happiness and relieves your stress.

Welcome to Plumeria Studios

At Plumeria Studios, we know how important it is for businesses of all types to create a trusted and respected brand identity.  When an interior isn’t well-designed, the brand and profits can suffer.  Great interior design, on the other hand, can drive customers to return time and again, as well as increase employee satisfaction and productivity.

Virtual Design Made Easy

Plumeria Studios offers virtual or e-design services for both residential and small commercial clients who are outside our service area, or within our service area but prefer virtual services.  Working in this way, we still have the capability to assist our clients with any scope of project ranging from new construction, to renovations, to existing space updates or changes.

Plumeria Studios E-Design

Our virtual e-design service provides the same professional tailored-to-you service with a few small differences…

  • We communicate and collaborate with you via phone, video conferencing, and email
  • You send us photos of your space, adjacent spaces, and one exterior photo of your home or building via email
  • You share any Houzz or Pinterest inspiration boards, or other inspiration photos, with us (This is commonly done with our in-person clients as well)
  • Based on the photos of your space, we create an initial rough floor plan with directions for you to measure the space, windows, architectural features such as fireplaces or stairs, and any furnishings you would like to keep within the space.  Measurements may be done by you, or by your contractor.
  • While we’re creating the initial rough floor plan for you, we send you a questionnaire for you to fill out (it’s important to get to know you and how you want to use the space)
  • We send you layout(s), design/mood boards, 3D room renderings, finishes/furnishings images and specifications, and material samples. Once received, we have a virtual meeting with you to discuss the design
  • We work virtually with your tradespeople to ensure they have the information needed to carry out installations according to the plans, and answer any questions they may have along the way
  • You receive deliveries. You will have the floor plan showing placement, and we will also work with you virtually to assist with placement or any questions that arise

We maintain the same level of exceptional service and results for our clients, whether in-person or virtually…

  • We still work within your budget
  • We still work with any existing items you want to keep within the space
  • We always quote our best possible prices for finish materials, furnishings, and accessories
  • We still handle all of the ordering and shipping logistics for you
  • We still source from our extensive list of trusted brands, retailers, and trade-only vendors…often at a discount to you
  • We still offer custom-tailored window treatments, bedding, pillows, headboards, and more

What makes our service different than typical virtual e-design only services…

We continue to provide our highly-personalized standard of service to every client whether in-person or virtual.  It is equally as important to us that we design for each client, a uniquely beautiful space, as it is that the space is functional for your specific needs.  We include in the design, where appropriate, custom architectural elements, built-in features, and address finishes in addition to furnishings and accessories.  We go beyond the “pretty” store-bought aesthetic.  Our virtual e-design service provides all the benefit of having a fully-custom, trained, experienced interior designer, while giving clients the flexibility and convenience of being virtual.

“When great design is achieved, it can really simplify and enhance a client’s everyday life or business.”
