On this page, I explain the different types of interior designer compensation, and then you will find examples of rates.
The submission examples cover custom kitchen renovation, bathroom renovation, and finally culminate in the complete renovation of an apartment.
Of course, the rates vary depending on the workload, the nature of the work, and the number of rooms. However, the examples I am giving you will give you a good idea; afterwards, the quotes will need to be refined based on your needs.
In any case, several options are available to you for submitting an interior design:
- Fixed rate: depending on whether it concerns sketches, preliminary designs, site surveys, or separate missions, a fixed rate may be applied (price ranging between 400 and 900 US dollars per room).
- By the time unit: in this case, the fees are calculated by the hour, half-day, or day.
- Percentage-based: For a project management assignment, fees are calculated as a percentage of the cost of the work, excluding tax. This percentage ranges from 8 to 17 %, depending on the nature of the work.
For any submission, whether it is for a renovation, kitchen, or bathroom, a service contract is created. This is to establish the terms of our collaboration, thereby avoiding any surprises.
