Q&As

Global Home Interior Design's design process and billing scheduling:
1. INTRODUCTORY PHONE CALL-Every project and client is different so this first call is a great indicator of whether or not we are a good match. If all goes well, a questionnaire is sent over to be filled out before our site visit. (Complimentary)

2. PROJECT SITE VISIT- On-site visit to discuss goals, needs, desires and budget in the actual space. We gather notes on how to best tackle your project and schedule a follow-up meeting.
(Consultation Fee-$500)

3. FOLLOW-UP MEETING- An estimated budget proposal is presented as well as a services contract outlining the proposed scope of work. Once contract signed, budget agreed upon and 50% design fee paid, the fun begins!

4. DESIGN REVEAL MEETINGS-Multiple meetings to present of detailed design plans which included, elevations, paint swatches, fabric selections, wallpaper samples, product specifications, etc. Stage by stage, we get your approval until your vision is complete.
(Installments of design fee paid)

5. PURCHASING ROAD MAP- We gather all the selections for client's full approval. Once we get sign off, we require 100% of payments to implement the purchasing. If renovations are required for the project, GHID will coordinate with the client's contractors and sub-contractors.
(100% of material costs)

6. PRODUCTION- Selections are ordered and produced if custom-made. These are shipped to one of GHID's NJ warehouses for safekeeping.
(Warehousing and shipping fees tallied)

7. RENOVATION (if applicable)- While orders are being processed, renovation of the job site will occur. If hired to do, GHID will act as the project manager for the client, working closely with the contractors and subs to implement the job. This is billed hourly.
(Project management fees billed monthly)

8. INSTALLATION/REVEAL- When 80-90% of the selections have passed quality control in the warehouse, GHID will schedule the install. This usually takes a full day and we ask the client not be present. (Any outstanding invoices due prior to install)

9. SECONDARY INSTALLATION- The remaining selections and any extra accessories we might suggest to complete the project will be installed.

10. PROJECT REVIEW MEETING- GHID and CLIENT discuss the overall project process, our successes and misses as well as potential next steps for another phase of the project. GHID often continues projects with CLIENTS for many years and other projects.

Hopefully YOU will join this large group of happy CLIENTS too!

Contemporary, modern, international design styles. We never want to design spaces that feel decorated or matchy-matchy. Our overall goal is to create spaces that feel like they have organically evolved over time, capturing our clients' life journey in their homes.

Being able to create beautiful spaces in which they serve as the back drop for the wonderful memories made by our clients and their families.

After years in executive positions in corporate advertising and media publishing in New York City, we knew we need to find another path. We quit our jobs, sold all our belongings and traveled around the world for 18 months. We came back with the clarity that we needed to start our own business and launched Global Home. Over 15 years later, we have had multiple retail stores, have a thriving e-commerce website and our interior design services firm.

We feel very fortunate everyday that we are able to do what we love making spaces that our clients love.

Joe, Vivian and the rest of the Global Home team bring years of experience to our design work but most importantly, we understand what it takes to make beautiful spaces into reality. It is a long journey that can be challenging, frustrating and fun but we shield our clients through the tough patches and guide them to the end when a gorgeous space awaits them. If ready to give us the trust, the Global Home team is ready to start!
