I am not sure what you are asking . The designers are not booking clients now/ Or they have long lead time for furniture. IMO if you need help with stuff you already own I am sure you can find a designer to work with just for what you need . If you need some new furniture then I would reccommend goig to a furniture store and using their on site designer You could even try here with a to scale floor plan , meaurements of the pieces you want to keep and lots of pics of those pieces and the space free help never hurts.

I’m asking for recommendations for remote designers to prepare spaceplanes and lead me through the steps to get my furniture placed that I have and suggest any addl items that may work.

Do not want to use a furniture store but some one to work with hourly or by project.

There are pros on this site that provide those services. They will not solicit for your service in the posting because it is just not done.

Check the comments pros post on questions and see if you are aligned with their design philosophy before contacting them. You have to reach out to them through Houzz.

I worked with a remote designer for my last kitchen project. She really ”got” what I wanted to do and space planning is really her jam. I will work with her again for this kitchen, but I’m just not ready to get started yet. I can pass along her contact information if you like. She may be a few weeks out too. I think everyone is.

Would love the recommendation

Hi Loretta. I do that. I do 3d renderings (which include floor plan/space planning.) I work with clients on a user-friendly private platform. Feel free to reach out to me @ clare@cdrdesign.com. My website is www.cdrdesign.com. Here are my houzz reviews https://www.houzz.com/pro/cdrdesign/cdr-design-llc#reviews

Houzz lists designers by region, so it makes searching for a virtual designer a little difficult. But, you might have some luck searching for "virtual designer"

I hope you find the perfect designer and wish you all the best in your new home. :)

Your messaging isn’t turned on. Mine should be. Try sending me a message.

These are your KEY words.

This is our pied a terre and am looking to complete it quicker than 2 years out with mostly what I have Need space plan , furniture placement, some addl recommendations on window treatments and some accessorizi ng. Any ideas suggestions?

Which will not get you a designer in October : ) No designer swamped with work, can spare the time to do this, and ESPECIALLY at this time of year. A new order for anything, including windows, will be considered a January order. And a long wait, depending what the window treatment is,

Do you have a measuring tape? Can you draw and measure the space with all walls, windows openings? Take pictures of what you have? Do you have a floor plan of the pied a terre? Scan and upload as a jpeg if you do.. You CAN get help here. But you need to do some homework

Draw, measure, and pictures. Please.

Do you have a measuring tape? Can you draw and measure the space with all walls, windows openings? Take pictures of what you have? Do you have a floor plan of the pied a terre? Yes to all but need someone process oriented with design expertise to guide me through the process. We will not be living here until May again so I do have a longer timeline but want to start the process currently so I am close to finished by summer. I have painter lined up, most if not all upholstered goods but will need window treatments and some case goods. Biggest step is positioning the anchor pieces, carpets (can I trim the ones I have if needed?) then large wall items. IMHO this feels largely advisory.

Note I have worked with 2 excellent design firms with a new build major project in Naples and another in the Northeast so am familiar with process. Both firms are inundated with limited bandwidth and this is a small job with less revenue due to me having a lot of the prices already.

Every designer is inundated. You have MUCH of what you need. That's a good thing for you, and a problem for a designer, many of whom structure fees to include purchases, EVEN if they are incorporating those you already own.

Any project requires something of you, be that virtual, online.......etc. There are supply chain issues,,,,,, and every other issue you can think of.

You can get help here . But you have to do some work. Or, you will be on your own well into a new year. You pick. Bonus? It is free.

What's the space. Design is INCHES.

What is your style?

What do you have that you must keep?

What type of "anchors" PIECES.

NOBODY CAN ADVISE until you provide the basic info

All design is plan and edit and plan. Period. Nobody even knows the locale of the "pied a terre" : )

WADR Jan, I was not looking for advice from an eclectic group of individuals on this post. I am looking to get references to professional remote designers willing to take a paid project on as stated in my initial request. I will do due diligence on any designers referred, chose one that seems like a good fit, then work one on one. At that time I can provide all the nuanced details, pictures, measurements needed and requested from said designer so we can work together over a term of months (a year?) to finish the project. Do you know of any designers open to this specific request? :-)

@Loretta Hutchinson,

I am not a pro, but have some expertise with choosing colors. I often respond to posts on Houzz and get personal messages from people seeking my advice or assistance with choosing colors for their home.

If I were you I would read through some of the posts on Houzz where people are seeking help with furniture placement. See who answers and how they answer. Do you like their ideas? Do you like their approach and the tone of their responses. There are a few really talented ladies who consistently answer posts and are most likely willing to assist you. Many are pros, some are just enthusiasts with a great eye for design.

You may want to just post one room with a floorplan, dimensions, and the furniture (+dimensions) that you want to place in the room and see who responds and how they respond, then reach out to the ones who impress you and see if they are willing to help with the rest of the house.

You will get a mixed bag of responses, but you may also find that one person who really gets who you are and what you want. They may be a pro or a very talented enthusiast, but you will get a feeling for who they are and if you can effectively work with them.

Ty for your very helpful response. :-)

If you post some photos with questions I think people can give you layout, advice, renderings, etc.
