A NOTE FROM SHELLEY
WHAT TO EXPECT FROM CHATHAM HOUSE!
At Chatham House, we make the design process effortless and enjoyable, giving you a clear vision of your space before it even takes shape. We present design concepts that include thoughtfully curated vision boards, floor plans and elevations as well as furniture selections, lighting and finishes. You’ll have the opportunity to explore material samples firsthand – seeing, touching and experiencing how all the elements come together to create a cohesive and beautiful home.
Once the selections are finalized, we organize everything into detailed product schedules. They are used by Chatham House, your builder, and skilled trades to provide quotes and place orders. They also act as guides during the construction process to ensure the design intent of your project is aligned with your vision.
As your project moves from design to construction, Chatham House remains hands-on, conducting site visits, reviewing progress and keeping you informed with detailed updates. When final touches are ready, we coordinate delivery and installation of your furnishings, rugs and accessories– so when you walk through the door, your home feels complete, curated and a reflection of who you are.
