[quote=Anonymous]Former designer here so I can provide some perspective. Most professional designers have a Minimum Purchase Agreement, clarifying up front that the furnishings spend will be north of $50k or $75k. Design firms have two revenue streams: hourly billing and margin on furnishings they can buy wholesale. They take projects based on two criteria: 1. How profitable it will be, 2. Will it be “magazine-worthy” when finished. Expect hourly fees of $260-$350, and expect professional designers NOT to use retail sources (poor quality and no control over production). Typical furnishings budget for a fully finished room is $30k not including design fees. Hope that helps! [/quote]
