    “Denise has been wonderful to work with! I LOVE how she has redesigned my home. Last year we worked on our living room, dining room, nook and staircase. Right now we are in the middle of remodeling the kitchen. What I appreciate about Denise is that we work as a team. She gets me and my style. We shop together and she shops for me, she knows how to find a deal and stay on budget. She keeps me on track and whittles down the choices for me. She keeps her subs on track and is intricately involved in the details. She knows how to get things done and in a timely manner. She stays involved until the end. It's been a pleasure working with Denise and I highly recommend her.”
    Dupuis Design
    Interior Designers & House Decorators in San Clemente
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 13, 2013
    “Before discovering Peggy from Dupuis Design, my experience with 2 prior "designers" was disappointing. First of all, Peggy is a pro. She understands how use layout to maximize views, while making certain the design fits the intended use. She redesigned our decks that we rarely used for the 12 years prior. Now they are a fun and comfortable place to hang out with friends and enjoy the formerly under appreciated ocean views. One of her best attributes is her ability to creatively modify relatively inexpensive decor and furniture and select only a few more expensive impact pieces to provide an overall luxurious feel to the space. Also, Peggy has a great attitude - she is professional and kind. Don't let her quiet disposition fool you - she is a tireless, fast, humble, and talented worker, who thankfully agreed to decorate the rest of our home, based on her incredible job with our decks.”

    The work of a professional can make all the difference. Whether your home has 10 bedrooms, or your apartment is 800 square feet, it can be tricky to create a cohesive look that is representative of your style. That's where a local San Clemente interior designer comes in. A home interior decorator will help distill your tastes and ideas into a design that suits the needs of your space. Whether you need help creating a functional space plan, rearranging existing pieces, designing the inside of a new home, or simply sourcing amazing furniture and decor, seeking the help of professional home interior designers and house decorators in San Clemente, CA is a must.



    What does an San Clemente interior designer do?

    A good home design professional will hone your style down to its very essence and be able to choose a functional layout that feels natural to you. Interior design companies can be involved as much or as little as the client desires. Many clients who hire a house interior decorator — particularly those who are remodeling — have a good sense of how the room should look and what products they should use. Often clients will insist that San Clemente interior design contractors use the products already present in the house. Other times a designer will need to start from scratch — especially if this is a newly purchased or just-built home. An interior design firm will need to figure out exactly what the client needs, which includes organizing rooms, picking flooring and wall colors, and finding furniture to complement it all. Sometimes that means he or she will have to recruit help from other home professionals to help create the perfect look for your renovation.


    Do your research before meeting with an interior design contractor or home decorator. Ask yourself what you want your space to become and what it will be used for. Figure out the extent of what you need help with, what your must-haves are and what your budget is. Interior design services can add up fast, so be up front with a potential design firm or individual from the beginning. Also, pick an interior decorator that fits your style. Browse through the portfolios of different interior design firms in San Clemente and decide if you would live in those houses. Just because you like something doesn’t mean you could live in it. There's a big difference!



    Questions to ask when you meet with San Clemente interior designers:


    • Can you give me a referral? (It makes a big difference to talk with a client who's worked with the designer before.)
    • Can I see your design portfolio?
    • When will the home renovation be done?
    • Do you charge an hourly rate or a flat rate, or use the cost-plus method or a mixed method?

    Find interior designing services on Houzz in San Clemente, CA. Narrow your search in the Professionals section to find interior designers or home decorators near you. You can also look through photos to find a room you like, then contact the design firm who designed it.


    If you search for Interior Designer near me you'll be sure to find a business that knows about the trends and styles for bathroom, kitchen, or whole house remodels.
