Frequently Asked Questions

Your Questions, Answered

  • We work on residential homes, guest properties, boutique hospitality spaces, and selected commercial projects. Most of our clients are looking for a thoughtful, tailored process and want a space that balances beauty with practicality.

  • Full-service interior design is best for larger or more involved projects where you want us to guide the process from concept through to completion. The Haus Concierge is ideal when you already have a sense of your style or some elements in place, but need help creating cohesion and bringing the space together.

  • It is ideal for rooms or homes that are nearly there but still feel unresolved. This service helps refine the details, improve cohesion, and create a more confident overall direction.

  • Your consultation is a focused working session where we review your space, talk through your goals, identify what is and is not working, and begin shaping the direction of the project. Afterwards, we follow up with clear next steps and, where appropriate, a tailored proposal.

  • Yes. Some one-room projects are well suited to The Haus Concierge, especially where you already have direction but need help bringing everything together. Larger or more complex room schemes may be better suited to full-service design.

  • Depending on the scope, full-service design can include concept development, space planning, finishes, furnishings, lighting, joinery direction, sourcing, procurement, coordination, and final styling.

  • We are based in County Clare and usually work within a two to three hour radius, depending on the project. We also take on selected projects in Portugal and are open to discussing the right fit for projects further afield.

  • Yes, often. Architects focus on structure and contractors focus on construction. An interior designer helps shape how the space will feel, function, and come together visually, helping avoid costly decisions that do not align later.

  • As early as possible. Early involvement allows us to influence layout, lighting, finishes, and the overall direction before key decisions have already been made.

  • Timelines vary depending on the size and complexity of the project. A smaller room-based scheme may take a few months, while a full renovation or larger home can take significantly longer.

  • Every project is different, so fees depend on scope and level of involvement. We begin with a paid 90-minute consultation at €350, then recommend the most suitable next step for your project.

  • Yes. We can help source the pieces and finishes that bring the scheme together, always with attention to quality, practicality, and cohesion.

  • That is absolutely fine. Most clients come to us with instincts, references, or scattered ideas rather than a fully formed style. Part of our role is helping you uncover what you are drawn to and what will feel right for the way you live.

  • We work best with clients who value thoughtful design, quality, and longevity. Once we understand the scope of your project, we can advise on whether your expectations, timeline, and investment level are aligned.
