Personal Design Consultation

We offer a three-hour consultation with a certified interior designer when purchasing a pre-sale home, or a home early in the construction process. Backed by a wealth of knowledge and experience, you can feel confident you’re making the right selections for your family’s needs and sense of personal style. Feel free to use this time to ask questions about the benefits of different types of materials or to get some input on how to select a colour scheme that works for you.

Built-In Convenience

One of the greatest benefits of designQ is that all design choices and upgrades are built into the price of your new home and can be seamlessly included in your mortgage. There’s no need to spend your valuable time on DIY projects after you move in or deal with the hassle and delays of renovations. We handle everything for you, ensuring that the moment you take possession, your home looks just like you imagined it.
