The Process
Let’s make your home everything you want it to be.
Well-designed spaces don't just look incredible; they change how you experience your home. What was once simply a room becomes an invitation to relax, entertain, and gather in new ways.

At J. Salmon Design, we believe you deserve luxury.
To us, luxury is beautiful, well-made furniture arranged with the utmost care. It's investing in your happiness and wellness with rooms tailored to your style and needs. And it's the relief that comes with knowing your project is in the hands of an expert who will handle every detail and deliver stunning results.
Whether you’re building your dream home or transforming your spaces to fit the next phase of your life, you need guidance to do it right.
The Process

1. The Vision
The process always begins with a complimentary Zoom call with Julie to discuss project goals and determine if we’re the right partner for your project. If we are, we’ll schedule an in-home visit or project feasibility study to dive deeper into your vision.

2. The Details
Every project is custom-quoted based on the scope of work. Once you have signed on, you’ll receive your project timeline, complete a design questionnaire, and introduce us to any tradespeople you’ve already contracted. You’ll leave this meeting with clarity on the next steps and excitement for what’s to come!

3. The Conceptual Design
We'll use what we've learned to develop a design concept, ensuring the rooms we create go beyond style to evoke a feeling and improve your life. You'll have the opportunity to review and approve the aesthetic direction, initial pricing, and proposed floor plan before we proceed.

4. The Detailed Design
Once you’ve shared your feedback, we’ll refine the design and guide you as you select the final finishes, fixtures, and furnishings that will support your overall vision.

5. The Implementation
Finally, we meticulously bring the design to life. By communicating with vendors, placing and managing purchase orders, and handling anything unexpected, we save you from headaches while ensuring the integrity and excellence of your project’s outcome.

6. The Celebration
It’s time to enjoy your home in a whole new way! Relax, entertain, and experience the dream spaces that your ideas inspired.
"Julie worked with us to design a complete renovation of the second floor of our home. It was extensive and complicated considering the original construction, and she worked some kind of magic to bring together a beautiful and really practical layout. We were on the fence about hiring a designer, thinking we could tackle it ourselves with feedback from the contractor.
Julie is very thorough and looks at the technical issues in a way that we would never have done. She also contributed really creative ideas beyond our abilities. I'm very happy to have worked with her, and I would do it again in future projects.
