Styling adds the finishing touches that bring a room to life, helping project the mood and personality of your space. Styling is helpful when:

  • You have an abundance of knick-knacks that feel cluttered

  • Your bookshelves or display areas feel empty or unfinished

  • You have artwork or collections you’d like thoughtfully displayed

  • You need support setting up new spaces after a renovation or move

The Neat approach
We consult with you to define your aesthetic vision, then use your existing art and accessories to create a cohesive focal point in your space. Neat applies the design principles of balance, scale, rhythm, and contrast to elevate your accessories and create a polished, curated look.

What’s included

  • Collaborating with you to gather potential styling pieces from around your home

  • Curating and arranging accessories and artwork to work harmoniously on your walls or bookshelves

  • Providing a personalized, budget-friendly shopping list for additional accessories if needed

By "shopping" your home, we often uncover hidden treasures tucked away in cabinets or suggest incorporating pieces from other rooms.

Pricing
$90/hour with a 2-hour minimum. We'll discuss your project and provide a time estimate during our initial call.

We'll start with a conversation about your goals and create a plan that works for you.
