Interior Design Pricing & Designer Fee Structure

Interior design is an investment — not just in your home, but in your peace of mind.

At VC Interiors, we believe in upfront, transparent communication — especially when it comes to fees. Rather than charging markups on furniture or locking you into a rigid package, we charge a simple designer fee, based on the time and expertise it takes to bring your space to life.

What Is a Designer Fee?

The designer fee covers your time with Victor — from the initial vision to the final walkthrough. This includes everything from consultations, design work, sourcing, renderings, and layout planning to contractor coordination and more. It reflects the experience, thought, and care put into every detail.

Why Do You Charge This Way?

Charging by the hour or by the project scope (rather than marking up products) means:

  • You get full transparency

  • You only pay for what you need

  • You can choose to phase out your project or scale it

  • You keep full control over your budget and purchases

This model also ensures our recommendations are always based on what’s best for you — not what earns us the highest commission.

When Is the Designer Fee Charged?

  • Consultation Fee: Applied upfront to begin the process and reserve your spot

  • Design Hours: Tracked and billed based on time spent on your project (virtual or in-person)

  • Final Walkthrough/Styling: Any hands-on finishing touches are included in the design time

We’ll give you an estimate of total hours based on your project size and goals after the consultation.

What’s Included in Your Fee

Depending on your project, design hours may include:

  • Virtual or in-person consultations

  • Style boards & space planning

  • Photorealistic 3D renderings

  • Product sourcing & shoppable lists

  • Coordination with contractors

  • Messaging support & revision rounds

  • On-site styling and walkthroughs (in-person clients)

How Much Can I Expect to Invest?

Our designer fee ranges from $75 to $120 per hour, depending on the complexity of the project, the type of service required, and the location. During our consultation, we’ll go over everything in detail, so you’ll have a clear understanding of the costs from the start.
