Question 1

Do you create your 3D content using AI?

Accepted Answer

No. I use professional interior design software, which requires complex analytical and practical skills alongside creativity. AI has no taste or judgment — it only reproduces patterns — and it misses the nuances that only an experienced interior designer can catch.

Question 2

Why should I choose you over another interior designer?

Accepted Answer

The French Designer fills a gap in the market: a fully remote interior design service that lets both homeowners and renters visualise their dream home down to the finest detail. Unlike designers who only send a 2D collage, I provide 3D renderings so you can virtually walk through your future space and see exactly what the finished project will look like.

Question 3

How can you design a room remotely without ever having seen it?

Accepted Answer

It's all thanks to technology and our collaboration. You provide measurements and photos using a simple guide I send you, and I recreate an exact, millimetre-perfect 2D layout and a 3D replica of your room to test layouts and lighting virtually.

Question 4

How do I take photos and measurements of the room?

Accepted Answer

Once you're booked in, you receive a simple visual guide to help you take quick measurements and photos of your room. Nothing complicated — it doesn't have to be perfect for it to work.

Question 5

What if I don't like the design or a piece of furniture you chose?

Accepted Answer

Your happiness is my priority, which is why my process includes built-in safety nets at every stage. For Concept Design and Full Design, you get two rounds of revision on the mood board and one round on the 2D layout plan, so nothing moves forward until you're happy with the direction.

Question 6

I don't have much time during the week to discuss my project. Is that a problem?

Accepted Answer

Not at all — my service is specifically designed for busy people. It operates completely remotely and on your schedule: no live calls, no Zoom meetings, no appointments to lock into your diary.

Question 7

How can you understand my needs and style if we communicate solely by email?

Accepted Answer

Solely visual and written communication is actually my superpower for understanding you. Images don't lie the way words can be misunderstood, you have time to reflect before answering, and I give deep, undivided attention to tracking every detail throughout the project.

Question 8

How will you create a concept I like if I don't know my own style?

Accepted Answer

You do not need to know your style or have any design vocabulary to work with me. The process includes a visual questionnaire with curated images, a process of elimination to identify what you dislike, and a mood board safety net before final design work begins.

Question 9

How long will it take to receive my final design package?

Accepted Answer

Depending on the size of the project, it can take as little as four weeks from the start of our collaboration to receiving your final design package. Timeline also depends on how quickly you complete the questionnaire and approve the mood board. I only take on a limited number of projects each month.

Question 10

What if an item on the shopping list goes out of stock before I buy it?

Accepted Answer

If a key item goes out of stock within 30 days of receiving your package, I will find you a similar alternative from another retailer free of charge.

Question 11

Do you pass on trade discounts to your clients?

Accepted Answer

My flat-fee service model means I don't manage trade accounts. Instead, I focus on finding you the absolute best value, high-street items that fit your budget perfectly, using public sales and retailer codes.

Question 12

Can you help me design a structural renovation, like knocking down a wall?

Accepted Answer

My studio focuses strictly on decorative and spatial e-design — furniture layout, lighting, colour and styling. I don't provide structural engineering, architectural plans or building regulations advice, so I'd recommend consulting an architect for that before proceeding.
