04: What is a Scope of Work and how it impacts designer fees with Kelly Donougher

What a wonderful chat I had with leading interior designer Kelly Donougher of 13 Interiors about Scope of Work. So much valuable info for clients in this episode! You’ll discover:

• Why Kelly describes a Scope of Work as “the most crucial tool a designer will bring to you as a client”
• When Scope of Work is discussed with you 
• What is benchmark expenditure and why there needs to be alignment
• How Kelly reviews previous projects to determine design fees 
• What is “Scope creep” and how it impacts fees
• Indicative $ interior designers might charge for certain types of work. Without knowing your home, the Scope of Work, expertise and experience required, complexity of project and materials and the market operating in, they are indicative ranges only
• Kelly’s final piece of advice for clients: “Do it once and do it properly”. As designers, we are designing for longevity, functionality and beauty
