Design One’s E-Design service is completely all online! It’s perfect for those who love the idea of decorating their home but don’t have the time or clearly that designer edge you get from a professional interior designer.

We will deal with any room in your house! Big or small. E-Design is available to anyone in New Zealand.  It doesn’t matter where you are here, as long as you have an internet connection we can get our mood boards to you.

Don’t waste your money buying items to try out.  With this E-Design service, you will see how every aspect of your room will work together to achieve the look you need.  Then with our product checklist, you will know exactly where to buy what and how much it will cost you.

We have teamed up with great supplies of interior products so we are able to offer you an awesome price of every product that we suggest so you not only end up with an amazing looking room but you have also saved money in the process.

 

E-Design FAQ's

How long will it take to get my room e-design?
You will receive your E-Design Presentation Package via email approximately within (1-3) weeks from our receipt of all needed items (questionnaire, payment, room sizes, photos,). All digital boards will be emailed in a PDF downloadable and printable file.

How can we re-design your property without seeing it or meeting you personally?
The advances of technology over the last decade have made things very possible for interior designers to work with clients over the internet.  Times are changing and so is the way interior design is performed.  To allow Design One to accurately understand your budget, space, needs and the look you want to achieve, we will ask that you to complete a client questionnaire, provide us a rough sketch of the room measurements and photos.  We welcome inspiration photos you’ve found online as well.  The more info you send the better we get to know you and your style preferences.

Can some of my existing furniture pieces be incorporated into the design plan?
Absolutely! We want to see you incorporate your own purchases and special finds.

If I have an open floor plan and two rooms are combined, which room do I select first?
In this case, we strongly suggest you purchase a design plan for both spaces.  Spaces which open into one another tend to feel like a single space, and it’s not possible to truly transform the look without taking into consideration everything your eye sees in its single view.

Do you work within the budget given to spend on the plan you’ve designed?
Absolutely! We can work within just about any budget. That said, our ability to create a dramatic transformation will be determined by what you’ve set aside for the project.  Of course, if you want items from designer stores only, expect to spend a little more, and alternatively, if you want items from retail stores only, expect to spend a little less. No matter your budget, your plan may include items such as a new rug, piece(s) of upholstery, occasional tables, lighting, window treatments and wall decor.

Will I be able to purchase the items directly?
Yes! A number of home furnishing retailers have established an online presence, enabling us to provide you with a shopping list full of items which you can purchase on your own.

Will you make changes to my plan if I don’t like something you’ve selected?
If we’ve missed the mark on an item or two, you may send us your thoughts and we will provide up to three re-selections at no charge per design plan.

Once I have my plan, how am I able to ask follow-up questions?
After the receipt of your final E-Design Presentation Package and included re-selection (limit three items per plan), our obligations to one another for that phase of your project are fulfilled.  However, if you do have additional questions, we are able to consult with you via email regarding your new design plan.

What happens if I wait to purchase an item, and then it’s no longer available?
If something becomes discontinued you can always shop for a similar item but we recommend that before purchasing our service, you wait until you are financially and practically ready to implement a design change. The world of manufactured goods is a rapidly changing one, and there are no guarantees that the item specified today will be available six months from now.

Can I purchase a “e-design room package” as a gift?
Definitely!  Our E-design room packages are fabulous housewarming, newlywed gifts, and much more.

Do you offer any other services besides the “e-design room package”?
Yes!  We offer a full hard fit out and soft fit out service and colour consultation providing you with a paint colour selection, room layouts, and more.  Please get in touch directly to talk about this service.

What locations do you offer e-design services to?
Our online E-Design services are offered throughout New Zealand.

“We recently asked Angela Gray from Design One to assist us with the selection of the hard fit out for our new home. We worked closely with Angela to agree the colours and finishes for paint, carpet, tiles window treatments and light fittings. She quickly understood the general feel we were trying to create and each suggestion she came up with served to build a cohesive look which felt just right. Throughout the process Angela balanced her great flair for design with effective practicality. She engaged carefully with us to ensure we had a sensational look to our new space. She communicated and interpreted ideas, turning them into a reality, ensuring success with different colours and styles. Her basic structures are elegant and stylish; her choices considered and well thought out. Her friendly, fun and energetic personality made this a fun and stress-free process. It was a pleasure to deal with a professional such as Angela and we appreciated her support with making interior choices so that our new house was transformed into a stylish and elegant family home. We are delighted with the outcome and know we wouldn’t have achieved such a great result without her. We highly recommend the services of an Interior Designer such as Angela for her advice and guidance so that you will achieve the right outcome for the look of your home.”
