Online Interior Design

The designers at NM Design offer an online design service, using the same design process that has been delivering great results for over 18 years.
Online design clients will receive the same level of attention and detail as full service clients, the difference being that it is delivered online rather than in person. This gives clients who love design and love re-designing their home the opportunity to work with a designer and implement the plan themselves.
After purchasing an online design package, you will receive an email with clear instructions on what to do to get started. These steps include:
- Selecting inspiration images
- Filling out our detailed design questionnaire
- Measure your room using our measuring guide
- Take photos of the space and any items you wish to keep

Once we receive your items we will begin working on your elevations and floor plan, so that you know exactly where to place your furniture and accessories. We then select the individual items for you based on your design questionnaire, desires, style and budget.
After the detailed design work is completed you will receive a clear and comprehensive package that shows you how to implement the design of your chosen space.
Your design package will include:
- A floor plan
- An elevation of the main wall
- Inspiration images
- A customised shopping list
- Designer tips for adding the magic to that room
