My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Colors!

10 years ago
I saw on a show that some interior designers will pick one color that really pops in the room and then they us that color in every room of the house to tie it all together. I really like that idea, but how do I pick that color? And how do I keep it from looking tacky?
