Finding an interior decorator

The interior design market is massive and growing, driven by residential renovations and a desire for personalized, functional spaces. While professional services offer significant benefits like expertise, time savings, and access to trade discounts, the high cost and challenges in client-designer communication and expectation management are major pain points. Existing digital platforms like Houzz and Havenly offer solutions but face criticism for poor customer service, high pricing, and feature limitations, indicating a crowded but imperfect market.
