Step-by-Step Process

Step 1: Consultation

This is where we start the process – A quick phone conversation to get a general idea of the scope of work and budget. Then we will do an in-person meeting to introduce our design team and discuss your project in depth. Ideas and inspiration will be formed and molded to be used for the overall design development.

Step 2: Design Direction

Based on the consultation, we will put together an overall feel for the design with inspiration photos and a color palette. We will also compose an estimated budget to ensure we are on the right track.

Step 3: Renderings & Sourcing

After taking extensive measurements of your space, our team uses sophisticated 3D rendering software to bring our designs to fruition. We then select all the materials and furnishings applicable to your project and present your design.

Step 4: Construction Documents

Once the design is approved, we put together deliverables that include drawings with measurements, schematics, and material specifications. Throughout construction, our team will conduct multiple site visits to ensure the quality of work is up to standard.

Step 5: Procurement & Installation

Upon approval, all items and materials will be invoiced and ordered, then tracked from shipping to receiving. We will then coordinate for all the items to be delivered and installed into your space with the contractor or other trusted vendors. Once this final step is complete, the space is all yours to enjoy!

What Our Clients Are Saying

Charise S.

Over the past 14 years, I’ve upgraded much of my home for comfort and elegance, but the master bathroom remained stuck in the 1960s – tiny, dark, and cramped. Seeking a designer for a small, mid-century modern-inspired remodel, I found Shanti (and Nuri) of Piece by Peace Designs, who immediately understood my vision.

From the moment I met Shanti, I immediately felt seen and understood. They never made me feel that my home or my wishes were anything less than grand. Shanti was so flexible that when I could not decide which design I wanted, she took the best parts of the existing ideas and created our final design on the spot. It was perfect and really fun to collaborate in that way.

Throughout the project I received weekly updates so I was never in the dark. The process was simple and Piece By Peace designs handled every curveball with ease.

I truly love my new bathroom. Its beauty and function elevates my day and relaxes my evenings. Thank you so much Shanti!

We’ve had the pleasure of working with Shanti for several years, both on our personal home and investment properties, and we couldn’t be happier with the results.

Shanti is a fantastic designer who truly understands her clients’ needs. One of her standout qualities is her ability to listen attentively and translate our ideas into unique, creative designs that perfectly align with our vision. She has an incredible knack for turning concepts into reality while keeping everything within budget.

What sets Shanti apart is her unwavering commitment to client satisfaction. She goes above and beyond to ensure that every detail is taken care of and that the final outcome not only meets but exceeds expectations. Her dedication to making sure we are happy with the results is truly commendable.

We highly recommend Shanti for anyone seeking a skilled and personable designer. Her professionalism, creativity, and commitment to client satisfaction make her a standout in her field. We’ve been thrilled with her work so far and look forward to continuing our collaboration in the future. Shanti is, without a doubt, our go-to designer for all our projects!

Shanti was great to work with. She was very receptive to hearing my vision and tying together all of my fragments of ideas into a style that made sense for my house. Other designers I was looking at were only interested in decorating in their own personal aesthetic. Shanti took my aesthetic and elevated it with pieces that will be timeless and others that add personality to the space. She helped design our dining room, living room, and primary bedroom. She and her design team helped curate pieces that made sense for the sizing of our space and really nailed the color scheme. If you are on the fence about getting a designer, go with Shanti anyway. Just having her help with the wall colors alone made the process worthwhile! My favorite part of all is that she found this beautiful bed that my husband and I fell in love with. Reasonably priced and a great eye for style!

I worked with Shanti on a renovation project involving two bathrooms and the kitchen. She made it easy with her design knowledge and really understood my goals, both functionally and aesthetically. From creating the design to working with the contractor, sourcing light & plumbing fixtures, and more, Shanti was professional, skilled, and fun to work with. I continue to refer Shanti to my friends and clients who are looking for a quality interior designer!

“Recently, we worked with Shanti Rose, owner of Piece by Peace Designs, on our move into a new home. The entire process was fantastic, for the following reasons:

  • Shanti took the time to understand our likes and dislikes. As a result, the furniture and accessories she helped us select for our new home were very much “our taste.”
  • She did a great job integrating furniture from our old home with new furniture purchases.
  • Bottom line, Shanti saved us money. The design fee she charged was more (much more!) than offset by the discounts she receives when ordering your furniture.
  • Shanti always kept our budget in mind, and she helped us to decide what items/areas to spend a little more on, and where we could spend less. This was extremely helpful.
  • Shanti was willing to meet with us at our convenience, which sometimes meant evenings and weekends. As a busy couple juggling two careers and a child’s activities, this helped us to keep our project moving forward, even when we thought we had no time.
  • Shanti’s eye for pulling every little detail together was amazing. She helped us with everything from furniture purchases to picking out paint colors for accent walls to recommending where to place accessories around the house to where to hang artwork on the walls. When everything was done, it fit together, but still felt very much like home.

Going into our move, we were very skeptical about whether we should work with a designer. Now, having worked with Shanti, we would never consider moving into a new space or remodeling an existing space without her. We can unequivocally say that Shanti Rose and Piece by Peace Designs can help you with any design needs you may have.”

“A year ago, I wanted to give my living room area and dining room area some new energy and life. It felt stale, dark and closed off, mostly because I made all the furniture from my last house fit into the smaller space of my current house. I reached out to Shanti for some help. She came over to see the space, take measurements, learn about my interests, and things that make me happy. A week later, she gave me plans of ideas of furniture pieces, colors, and accent pieces. They were incredible! We came up with a plan and got everything ordered. Once everything came in, Shanti came over and we worked together to get everything just right. The couches, window accents, decorative accents looked amazing! She was able to tie my passion for the outdoors and hiking into the colors and textures of the room. I was especially impressed by the dining room table! What meant to the most to me was incorporating some of my favorite pictures from adventures from around the world, into the room. I am thankful to Shanti for helping me create an environment that makes me happy, comfortable and relaxed to spend time in. Thank you, Shanti!”

“Shanti was extremely helpful in our re-designed upstairs loft. Her expertise allowed us to get the space that we wanted without over-spending on the project. Hiring Shanti was a great way for us to find a wonderful design and better understand all of the options out there.  Shanti’s ideas inspired us to continue with the project and not put it off any longer.  We are very happy with our re-designed loft.”

John & Polly W.

“My husband and I had the opportunity to work with Shanti Rose. I had reached out to several interior designers, but none offered what I was seeking. Shanti was recommended to me by a local, and she was perfect for our job!

We needed to completely furnish a new home, while still living out of state. She also helped us find amazing contractors to do the structural changes we desired. We completely trusted everyone that was involved in the remodel and furnishing of our dream home.

Shanti is easy to work with and brings a detailed eye into every room. She listened to both my husband and I while preparing a plan that was exactly what we both wanted. Every room has a special touch. Our home is perfect ! I’m sure she can help you create your dream home.

So if you seek a major remodel or just an inspired room, call Shanti. Each of us deserves to live in a place we love:)”
