A note from Andrea Valle

Hello and welcome to Andrea’s Innovative Interiors! I’m glad you stopped by to learn what makes our interior design consulting services unique.

My background as an industrial designer (I studied at Virginia Tech’s College of Architecture & Urban Studies) was steeped in classic Bauhaus design principles — simplicity, functionality, smart use of materials and conceptual multi-disciplinary thinking — that inform our approach to every project. My professional experience as an in-house designer and showroom associate further shaped our process and our commitment to the highest levels of client care and collaboration.

Whether it’s a professional workspace or a personal retreat, we believe that every space deserves to be both functional in its design and exceptional at reflecting your personal style. From a single impactful tile layout for your kitchen or bath to full-service design planning and execution, our a la carte consulting approach lets you select the services that fit your project needs:

Services Overview

 

  • Where every interior design project begins, our signature service is the kickoff to creating a comfortable, well-balanced commercial or residential environment. During a comprehensive site visit, we assess the space, talk about your goals and style preferences, establish the room’s foundation and floor plan, and discuss everything from color palettes to the best placement for art. At the end of the consultation, you’ll receive a detailed design plan that’s ready to execute. Or, our buildable a la carte services let you select the level of professional support you need to complete your vision.

  • Having trouble visualizing the possibilities? Using computer-aided design (CAD) software, we formalize our rough consulting sketches into a detailed layout. Drawn to scale and perspective, these detailed renderings include everything from sightlines and new wall openings (for a renovation) down to cabinetry layouts, furniture sizes and placement, fixtures, lighting and more.

  • We create highly tactile design boards (also known as sample boards) to bring our recommendations to life. These useful visual reference tools allow you to experience textures, evaluate colors, compare patterns and confidently narrow down selections to your favorite choices. Why these low-tech tools? Two reasons: Computer screens render color differently based on their calibration, and nothing beats real life to see, feel and decide.

  • Turning selected raw materials into high-impact statements and a finished look isn’t an easy process. Let us present detailed options for tile layouts, flooring designs and other visual elements so you can envision the big picture and make confident decisions.

  • Pressed for time, overwhelmed by choices, or simply not a shopper? We’ve identified the best resources for every budget and style, and can shop for you, with you, in store and online. Our professional discounts can often help you extend your resources and make the most of your design investment by offsetting our consulting fees.

  • Remember that design plan from our consultation? If you need help putting the pieces together, we’ll happily handle the installation for you. This includes placing items such as furniture, rugs, window treatments and artwork, then styling the room for maximum impact.

  • Andrea’s Innovative Interiors can take the project management reins for larger design projects and renovations. Let us coordinate with your contractor and other trade professionals to answer questions and address issues that arise during the process on anything from built-ins, flooring and lighting installation to other necessary construction changes. It’s helpful to have a team on your side to ensure the design intent is executed accurately.

 

Our services are flexible so you can tailor to your budget and project type, and buildable as your needs change or project scope expands. As your partner in design, we look forward to collaborating with you to make your next interior design project straightforward and stress-free.

There’s no place like home

Your home is your haven — a warm, welcoming respite for you, your family and your guests. And you want to make sure each space works for its intended purposes, from relaxing and comfortable to rejuvenating and lifestyle-inspired. At Andrea’s Innovative Interiors, we understand that good design embodies both form and function.

Our residential services, starting with our design consultation, create style and substance with a process that’s simple, accessible and fun — never overwhelming or intimidating. Working together, we’ll create a vision, define the details and establish the products, style and coordinating elements that reflect your preferences and your budget.

We’re also firm believers in repurposing meaningful items you already own and love to truly create your home sweet home.

As your partner in design, we’ll incorporate your ideas and overcome your design challenges to create cohesiveness. Reach out if you...

  • Are looking for a change of style and need direction

  • Don’t have the time or the resources to take on a design project alone

  • Want to feel like your home is a better reflection of who you are 

Together, we’ll layer the details to bring out the beauty and flow of your unique spaces.

Spaces that mean business

Whether you’re just launching a new business or looking to refresh an existing space, your office is a reflection and reinforcement of your brand.

But it’s never simply how a commercial space looks and feels. It’s about how it works, too.

  • Does the floorplan and traffic flow encourage employee collaboration?

  • Is the lighting designed for safety, comfort and productivity?

  • Are there comfortable, private spaces to meet with clients and vendors?

  • Do you need smart storage solutions to keep common spaces clutter-free?

While it’s fun coordinating colors and patterns, a commercial space requires special attention to form, functionality and flow to make it an optimal environment for employees, clients and visitors. Starting with our design consultation, we collaborate with business owners to create spaces that deliver on their highest potential, from flooring to ceiling and everything in between.

Whether you’re seeking a basic facelift or a complete renovation of your work environment, we’ll work together to identify your needs and define priorities for the space. From consulting to conceptualizing to vendor coordination, we’ll execute on the details and take your business space to the next level.

Turning first impressions into high-value results

Today’s hot housing market means you may have plenty of competition when it comes time to make a move. That’s why buyers’ first impressions of your home can make or break a successful sale.

Completed in one day, your ReSale Ready consultation gives you fast, high-impact results. We assess every room, rearrange and redecorate if possible, and offer inexpensive solutions that help maximize your home’s appeal. We can also assist with product sourcing and implementation to save you time.

Unlike typical staging services, we focus on using what you already own to save money on expensive rentals, enhance your home’s true value and make it memorable to potential buyers.
