Philosophy

Elizabeth Lodge Designs is a company that is setting a new standard for many spectrums of interiors. We have a vision of bringing an artistic flair and international sophistication to our clients.

There are 4 steps in design:

Discussion

With Elizabeth Lodge Designs, design begins when our clients contact us about our services. An initial consultation is arranged to discuss a potential client's prerequisites. During this time, personal style is initiated, acquiring an overall intent.

Relation

Developing a viable commonality in relating both inter-personally and creatively is a key operating goal for Elizabeth Lodge Designs. Once established, a feel for the space and scope of the project is enhanced.

Solution

Once we have a concept of style and personality, along with the look for the space, we can create and choose design images that will convey the colors and textures to be used throughout the project.

Realization

During this final phase, clients are presented with a timeline, quotes

for contractors and furnishing purchase orders. The final stage involves accessorizing and styling your space, and realizing the client's design ambition.
