FAQs
A home that reflects who you are — without renovations or stress
Clear the way to start
to inhabit, with meaning
Before transforming your home, it's natural for
Questions. Here we resolve the most common doubts
so that you take the first step with clarity and calm.
1. I'm not sure which service is right for me, can you help me choose?
Of course. Listening to your needs is the first step in design. Here's a little compass to guide you:
- Do you just need an expert eye to resolve specific doubts? Your service is Casa Coach. A strategic pause to solve and move forward.
- Do you want to do it yourself, but with a professional map that guarantees the result? Your service is Casa Express. We design the roadmap; you set the pace.
- Are you looking for a complete aesthetic transformation without any building work and want to delegate everything? Your service is Casa Essenz. We dress your home with soul while you relax.
- Are you moving, need renovations, or starting from scratch and want full support? Your service is Casa 360º. We'll hand you the keys to a ready-to-live-in sanctuary.
If you still have doubts, book a consultation. We'll have an initial conversation to understand your current situation and recommend the path that best suits you.
2. ¿Trabajas solo en Basilea?
My physical base is in Basel and its surroundings, where I can experience the space in person. However, design has no borders. I also support projects in other areas or countries through my services online, using visual tools that allow us to connect and work with the same depth and closeness.
3. What is the investment for an interior design project?
It depends on the depth of change you're looking for. To give you a clear reference: our service Casa Express has a fixed investment of 3,450 CHF (for dwellings up to 100 m²). For the rest of the services (House Essentials y Casa 360º), each home is a distinct universe. After our initial contact, I will prepare a personalised fee proposal, tailored to the size and actual needs of your space.
4. Does the service price include furniture and decor?
No, the fees cover the talent, time, and creative and technical development of your project. The budget for the purchase of furniture, textiles, materials or works is independent and we will define it together. I always work respecting your spending limit, seeking the best relationship between quality, aesthetics and well-being.
5. Do you design bespoke furniture?
Yes, and it's one of my favourite parts. Sometimes, the architecture calls for a piece that doesn't exist in the catalogue: a bookcase that hugs an irregular wall or a bench that creates a reading nook. I can design these exclusive pieces for you. (This service is quoted as an optional extra depending on the complexity of the design).
6. Can I hire the design and handle the purchasing myself?
Yes. That is the essence of Casa Express. It is designed for those who enjoy the "doing" process but need the reassurance of "knowing". You will receive the design guide, plans, and a curated shopping list so you can implement the project with complete autonomy.
7. How long does the transformation take?
Creating a home requires its own ripening times. Although each project is unique, here are the indicative timelines:
-
Casa Express: In 3 weeks, you'll have your proposal ready, plus 1 month of support for its implementation.
-
Casa Essenz The process usually takes about 8 weeks.
-
360º House: The timings vary depending on the scope of the renovation or the move.
8. Can I start with just one room?
Absolutely. Sometimes, transforming the living room or the main bedroom is the trigger that changes the energy of the entire house. Tell me which space you need to cocoon and we'll start there.
9. Where do you buy your furniture and decor?
I don't commit to a single brand; I commit to your style. I work with a curated selection of Swiss labels, European design, and finds from online or local shops. I look for pieces that offer quality and that special texture that makes a house feel lived-in.
