HIGH-END DESIGN LOOK WITHOUT THE COST OR WAIT
FULL ROOM DESIGN
Lisa’s Specialty: A designer-caliber space, maintaining a cohesive, elevated look - without the high-end designer costs, markups, and long-lead times of luxury custom full-service turnkey interior design.
Every detail for your new room—from top to bottom (chandelier to area rug)—is thoughtfully chosen by Lisa, tailored for your individual space, style, needs, and budget - whether your personal preference is for modest, mid-range, or high-end luxury.
Our clients can be enjoying their new room in a matter of weeks if they desire, compared to six to twelve months or more, since Lisa works diligently to source mostly in-stock, readily available pieces with this service.
You’ll receive everything you need to easily bring your room to life, at your own pace, on your own timeline—without the pressure or investment of a full-service install.

HOW MUCH DOES FULL ROOM INTERIOR DESIGN COST?
Our clients appreciate our respectful, flat investment rate, up front transparent cost so they never worry about surprise invoices from us, ever. They pay one time for Lisa’s design work and can then sit back and relax, knowing something beautiful and right for them is being created with a lot of love, care, expertise, and creative vision. Our track record speaks for itself, check out Lisa Jensen Interior Design’s client testimonials page. In fact, it was clients green lighting every single project Lisa presented year after year, that led her to create her simplified, flat rate interior design services. After many years on the job figuring out what worked best for her clients, Lisa created her streamlined unique process that she continues offering today.
That said, for Full Room Designs, there are too many variables involved between project needs, client requests, and many other factors, to give just one cost for a Full Room Design to everyone, but we will give you some ideas below to make sure we’re in the same ballapark. If after reading below we don’t sound too low, or too high, for you, then we’re probably going to be a good fit! The next step would be to submit our simple Contact Form to start the conversation. If we’re not the right fit, no worries and good luck with your project.
The first thing to note about our interior design pricing is that we’re not doing lower budget online e-designs here. We’re not doing cookie-cutter or simple room designs. We’re not a new, lesser-experienced designer. And we’re not churning out designs for the same type of room, over and over. If you look at our portfolio, you will see every type of residential space from kitchens, bathrooms, dining rooms, bedrooms, living rooms, and more, and styles ranging from Modern, Transitional, Traditional, Coastal, Farmhouse, Bohemian, Eclectic, Edgy, and more. There is also Lisa’s 23 years of skill development with hundreds of completed room designs over the past couple decades with hundreds of satisfied clients - many repeatedly hiring Lisa for over 15 years. A lot of time and effort goes into Lisa’s meticulous work, so we can tell you our Full Room Design in your home won’t be $699.
You will also have the freedom to control your furnishings and decor budget. Unlike high-end luxury design, we’re skilled at working in budget levels that range from modest, to mixed, to luxury. Lisa is respectful of her client’s money and is a master at knowing where to indulge, where to scale back, and choosing items that look like they are more than they are. Sometimes lower budgets make developing the Full Room Design more challenging, so a lower furnishings and decor budget does not mean a lower cost for the design service.
To give you a general idea of the investment for your personalized custom room design, separate from your furnishings and decor budget, a Full Room Design for a smaller, less complicated space, like a light foyer in a Colonial, or a very small, basic half bathroom, or similar spaces, or even changing some key pieces in a bathroom as a partial room design may be an investment of ballpark $1795-$2795.
A more typical Full Room Design for an average family or living room, dining room, bedroom, home office, study, kitchen, or bathroom could be in the ballpark of $3495 - $5495. That is for a Full Room Design planned out, soup to nuts, even if we’re incorporating some of your existing pieces. Floor plans, colors, finishes, hardware, textiles, all large furniture pieces, small accent furnishings, rugs, lamps, chandeliers, artwork, art lights, window treatments and hardware, plants/planters, decorative items, accent pillows, throw blankets, baskets, etc., a visual mood board, and a complete shopping packet with links to easily purchase every single item! This is our way to give you a stress-free, completely personalized, custom new room without the high-end full service install price tag.
I’m sure that is a big range for some folks, but it truly depends on the specifics of your project, the condition of the space, the complexity of the room, the level of work I’ll need to do to develop a fitting design, and of course the client’s individual requests can really be a factor, so that cost could increase. For example, a living room may have 4 built-in bookcases that require the planning and sourcing of 36 unique accessories - that’s a lot of work! We are not going to a big box or home store and picking 36 accessories off their shelves in a couple hours - that is not the level of uniqueness and soul we bring to each of our projects. So, a room that needs an additional 36 accessories will call for a lot of careful planning and curating time which will have an impact on the pricing and be a lot more work than a straightforward space requires. Likewise, an open-concept floor will affect the pricing. If we’re going to be adding in any custom pieces that will be a factor too.
Every room design project starts with an intake consultation, in order to interview you in depth, to view the space or plans, to photograph and measure the room, architectural elements, and any pieces you plan to keep, to review costs and budget options, and to learn everything we can so that in the end your new space will reflect your wishes (not ours). Our in-depth consultations and getting to know our clients is the reason our projects are successful and have been continuously green-lighted across the board for 23 years. Clients will sign a contract and pay for the intake consultatation in advance of the site visit and that payment is for our time and work done during the site visit, it is not deducted from the Full Room Design. I don’t think we’ve ever had a client not move forward, but should a client make that decision there are no refunds.
I hope this helps give you a ballpark idea about a typical investment in our Full Room Design service. We’re obviously far below high-end, luxury full-service interior design where an example for designer fees in Massachusetts for a kitchen will be 25-30% of the overall project (so designer fees would run about $37,000 - $45,000 for a $150,000 kitchen). Instead, Lisa Jensen Interior Design can create the vision (out of thin air), the new “look” for you for a fraction of those fees. Sure, you’ll have to be involved with the cabinet vendor and contractor, but you will get a custom, beautiful well-designed space, with all the hard decisions made for you, such as flooring, counter top for island, counter top for perimeter, edging detail and finish, knobs, pulls or both and on which cabinets or drawers, cabinet styles and finishes, island lighting, back splash tile, installation pattern, grout color, wall paint color, sink, faucet, stools, runner, counter top accents, artwork, and more, for roughly $4,595-$5,595 and save $32,000 to $40,000 to put toward your cabinets, counter tops, light fixtures, stools, window treatments, and more - and still have a magazine worthy new kitchen when it’s finished!
The investment in our design service is far below celebrity designers and influencers like Amber Lewis of Amber Interiors who does lovely work and charges $1,250 for a 25-minute virtual consult (or $2,500 for a 50-minute virtual consult). And we’re also not offering budget decorating service either.
There’s a place for all interior decorators and designers of all levels, but the important thing is that if we sound right for you, then great, we look forward to helping transform your home soon. Our limited spots fill up fast, so we recommend contacting us soon to reserve your spot!
