Our Interior Design Process
A successful interior design project begins with understanding how a home should feel and how it needs to perform.
McCann Interior Design guides clients through a thoughtful, collaborative process designed to minimize disruption while achieving beautifully resolved results.
Step 1: Discovery
Discovery
Each project begins with conversation.
During this phase we learn about your goals, lifestyle, architectural context, and timeline. Whether through an in-person meeting or virtual consultation, this stage establishes the foundation for all design decisions that follow.
Step 2: Assessment
Assessment
We review the existing space, document conditions, and refine project scope.
This stage often involves collaboration with builders, architects, and tradespeople, ensuring alignment before design development progresses.
Step 3: Design Development
Design Development
Design concepts are created based on functional needs, aesthetic preferences, and budget considerations to ensure creative direction.
This may include:
Space planning
Furniture layouts
Material and finish selections
Lighting strategies
Custom millwork direction
Construction drawings
Step 4: Presentation
Presentation
Visual materials are presented and refined with client feedback. The budget is established to protect your investment.
Depending on project scope, presentations may include floor plans, renderings, finish samples, and specification documentation.
Step 5: Project Management Phase
Project Management Phase
Once approved, the project moves into procurement and coordination of any construction, renovation and installation.
McCann Interior Design oversees ordering, scheduling, and collaboration with vendors and contractors to ensure design intent and investment is maintained throughout execution.
Step 6: Installation & Styling
Installation & Styling
The final phase brings all elements together: furnishings are installed, styling is completed, and the space is prepared for daily living.
