This service is the perfect starting point for you to flesh out or define your design project or as the beginning of further interior design collaboration.

If you are an existing or former DGD design client, you are welcome to a complimentary in-home consultation – just ask! For new clients, our Professional Design Consultation service is $195 and includes two hours of in person or video meeting in your space and phone and email follow to pick our brains, consider ideas and get further professional advice about your space or project.

Design documents help you visualize options for your space. 2D and 3D drawings show you exactly where everything will be and your floor plan options. Put your actual furniture into the floor plan to see what you need to change, move or add.

You get a detailed report and design documents including a summary of our meeting, delineation of your needs, plans and design goals, specific professional advice, and any of the following, depending on the type of project: design boards with color schemes, 2D floor plans, and recommended sizes, finishes and fixtures for your project.

Take the stress and confusion out of choosing the perfect paint type, finish, wall color or wallpaper. Get the look you want for any room or create a whole-house color scheme.

Our professional guidance includes discussion of your preferences and style goals, your space layout, room function and furnishing style. After that, we present you with a manageable range of color options for you to sample on your own walls. We even teach you the best method for paint sampling so that you can be confident in your choices.

We guide you throughout the process with in person and phone/email support as needed.

“First-time property owner here! We were overwhelmed by color choices and needed professional help with our whole house color scheme. After finding Denise’s website, we knew we found the help we needed. Denise helped us to narrow down choices and confidently pick our paint colors in the first consultation. Since we really hit it off, we hired Denise to help us decorate our home, combining some new art and home décor to mix in with the things we already had. Our home came together quickly and in our perfect, livable style.”

“Buyers make up their mind about a property in the first sixty seconds, so I recommend staging to 95% of my sellers.
Denise Gianna has provided many of my clients with quick, reasonably priced, and effective staging solutions. A good, professional stager like Denise packages your home for the most likely buyer, cuts down the time a house is on the market and discourages low-ball offers.”

~ Lucille, Real Estate Agent, Fishkill, NY

Real Estate staging is the art of preparing a property for the ideal market environment and potential buyer. Proper professional staging can quickly attract the ideal target buyer, increase sales traffic, and result in increased sale price.

People fall in love with a home by visualizing themselves in the space. Real Estate staging accomplishes this by minimizing the personalization in your home, curating your possessions, and arranging furniture and décor to highlight the space to its best advantage.

As with all our services, we stage uniquely for the type of space, property price point, your marketing budget and target sales market. If you prefer, we work closely with your real estate professional or commercial sales team to plan staging to target the prevailing real estate market, identify and attract the targeted buyer and accommodate photography, open houses, and showings.

Real Estate Staging typically includes:
• In-home/space appointments to asses and get to know your space
• written DIY or professional action plan so you can complete the staging OR we can do the staging work for you.
• Recommended floor plans for optimizing your space
• Room styling options using what you already have additional items we can help you find
• Phone and email support
• Optional services include shopping and in-space installation for an additional $95 per hour
