Mel Shaver-Durham,
Interiors & Styling

I specialize in unique, customized interior design.
I would love to help your home tell your story!


What design services do you offer, Mel?

Hi there! I offer both In-Person and E-Design services.  E-design services are performed entirely virtually, which means I can work with anyone, anywhere! They also cut out the need for in-person meetings & travel. By eliminating the cost of travel time, you'll save money that you can ultimately spend on more things for your home!

NOTE:
I am a self-taught designer without any formal training, so I am not able to provide advice on plumbing, electrical wiring, or architectural design.
However, if you are looking to turn a bland, empty or unattractive space in your home into one that is beautiful, unique and inviting, I am the designer for you! This is what I am good at, and what brings me joy too!

pricing

E-design:
$600/room*

If you are choosing E-Design, you as the client will take all of the measurements and photos and gather all of the materials for the design. Therefore, the need for travel is eliminated. As such, charges for E-Design will be less than in-person interior design work. 
*Larger and/or complex spaces or requests will cost more.

In-person design:
$60/hour 

If you choose in person design, my total fee will include the time I spend traveling to and from your home, taking measurements, creating your design and editing it to your satisfaction. 
*A typical room design takes about 10-12 hours. 

What forms of payment do you accept, Mel?

I prefer PayPal, Venmo or Zelle, but you can also pay via check if you prefer. 
* I'll ask for a 50% down payment prior to starting my work on your design.

I'd love to create a unique, customized design for you!
