Good to know.
Quick answers to what builders, contractors, agents and homeowners ask most. Anything else, just ask.
How do you charge for a project?
Every project is unique, and fees are determined by the scope of work, services required, and project timeline. Following an initial consultation, NS Design provides a customized proposal outlining the services and associated fees before work begins.
When should a builder bring you in?
As early as possible, ideally before finishes are locked in. Early involvement means cohesive selections, fewer change orders and a model or spec home that is ready to show on schedule.
Can you work with our existing vendors, trades and stagers?
Absolutely. Natalie has extensive experience collaborating with builders, contractors, vendors, and staging professionals. She works seamlessly with existing teams, coordinating design decisions, materials, and schedules to ensure a cohesive and efficient process.
Do you help with rebuilds after the fires?
Yes. Natalie works with homeowners and builders across Greater Los Angeles, including the Palisades and Malibu, on plans, finish selections, furnishings and move-in.
What areas do you serve?
NS Design is based in Greater Los Angeles, with residential project experience in New York, Chicago, and Park City. Natalie welcomes inquiries for projects throughout the United States and internationally, depending on project scope and requirements.
