"How much does an interior design project cost?" is like asking "how much does a car cost." It depends. The price follows the scope, the size, and the level of completion. Here's how it's calculated and why a bill of quantities is your best friend against surprises.
Size, complexity, level of detail, whether it’s design only or design plus turnkey execution. Residential and commercial projects are priced differently. A bigger scope means more hours of design work and coordination.
What a Bill of Quantities Is
The bill of quantities lists the quantities and cost of every item used in the visualization and the project: furniture, materials, lighting, and more. It turns a nice picture into a real, trackable budget.
The bill of quantities is the bridge between the visualization and the real budget.
Why It Saves You Money
When everything is laid out ahead of time, you order exactly what you need, compare quotes fairly, and avoid buying more than necessary. The budget works for you, not the other way around.
- Define the scope early.
- Ask for a bill of quantities with the project.
- Separate “must-have” from “nice-to-have.”
- Set aside a buffer for unexpected costs.
