Design Without Compromise

Too often, homeowners and designers are forced to compromise on quality. Without access to luxury fabrics and wallcoverings, many settle for mass-produced options that lack individuality and refinement. The result is interiors that feel repetitive, ordinary, and devoid of character. Cheap materials may offer a quick solution, but they ultimately diminish the sophistication and elegance of a home.

At The Design Barn, we believe that high-end living deserves high-end finishes. The right fabrics and wallpapers can transform a space—adding depth, warmth, and a sense of timeless luxury. By opening access to exclusive, world-class materials, we ensure that every detail contributes to a home that feels distinctive, elevated, and beautifully complete.

Day 1: Home Visit (1.5 - 2 hours)

We begin with an in-home consultation where we review your design goals, inspirations, and practical requirements. During this visit we take detailed measurements, capture reference photos, and discuss preferences such as window treatments, fabric finishes, and operation styles. This ensures every element of your project is considered from the outset.

Design Development

Between your home visit and studio session, our design team prepares tailored schemes, sourcing fabrics, wallcoverings, and finishes from our extensive library. Each proposal is carefully curated to suit your lifestyle, taste, and budget.

Day 2: Studio Visit (1.5 - 2 hours)

In our design studio, you will be presented with bespoke proposals, complete with material samples, finishes, and design recommendations. Following this session, we provide a detailed quotation (subject to confirmation of measurements by our fitters and manufacturers).

Investment and Value

The consultation fee of €450 + VAT represents far more than a standard design service — it is an investment in expertise, exclusivity, and peace of mind. From the moment we begin, you gain access to our carefully curated library of international fabrics and wallcoverings, along with the professional guidance of our qualified designers and specialists.

Every scheme we prepare is unique to your home, tailored with precision to reflect your style, your requirements, and your aspirations. There is no obligation to proceed beyond the consultation, yet the value lies in the clarity and confidence you gain — avoiding costly mistakes, unsuitable purchases, or finishes that fall short of true quality.

For clients who demand the very best, this consultation forms the foundation of a luxury design journey: one that transforms ideas into interiors of enduring elegance.
