Virginia Street Design was founded on the principle that there is a way to bring honesty and transparency to an otherwise murky industry. In that spirit, Virginia offers prospective clients a free one-hour consultation, before anyone signs on the dotted line. She views this introductory meeting as a fact-finding mission, from which she gleans the information needed to develop an accurate estimate for her project fees.
With the exception of Retainer Services arranged with clients, the following process applies to all Virginia Street Design LLC projects. Half of each project’s fees are invoiced at the project’s inception, and the remaining balance is collected upon the project’s completion. Throughout the project, product purchases made on behalf of clients are invoiced separately at a penny-for-penny rate of reimbursement. There are no mark-ups and no surprises.

Closet + Pantry Management
Some closets get the “out of sight, out of mind” status, but for those closets that clients have to encounter everyday, Virginia’s particular brand of organized means that everything that needs to be accessed has a place to stay. And, for those clients who want the extra help, she maintains closets and pantries on a quarterly and monthly basis, ensuring that clothes (you know – the ones on top of your shoes that need to go to Goodwill) actually make it to Goodwill, and that the Chili ingredients from five years ago don’t go into this year’s Chili.

Color Casting for Homeowners + Builders
It’s hard enough to narrow down the playing field, when it comes to choosing the colors that will grace your home’s walls, let alone making a decision in a timely manner. What’s worse is this pesky little myth that gets thrown around in moments of frustration and indecision: “Well, if we don’t like it, we can always just paint over it.” Technically, that’s true. You can paint over anything, but who wants to do that? Whether you’ve decided to don your own coveralls, or you’re planning on hiring someone else to don theirs, getting the color right the first time is not only fiscal-friendly – it’s better for the environment and easier on your nerves!

*Color boards can be added on to any package at $50/board.

Product Sourcing for Homeowners + Builders
Decisions, decisions, decisions. There comes a time in even the smallest renovation project, when a homeowner makes his or her last good decision. After that point, decisions are many times made on-site, in a hurry and without much research or thought as to how that decision will affect the rest of the project. The Product Sourcing package remedies this situation with Product Sourcing Inventories that follow the construction timeline. The idea is, at its heart, based on the organizational philosophy of breaking large projects into smaller, more manageable tasks. This type of project coordination is crucial, if homeowners desire to keep the decision-making fatigue at bay. Virginia can’t promise that her clients won’t get tired of all of the decisions, but she can promise that the seemingly inconsequential decisions won’t get lost in the mix. And, when the inevitable doubt that follows any decision starts knocking on the door, every decision made will have research and reasoning to bolster clients’ resolve.
Package Deliverables
- Virtual & On-site Product Sourcing & Research
- Pre-Sourcing & Post-Sourcing Meetings
- Home Lifestyle Assessment
- Product Procurement
- Vendor Site Visits
