THE IDEA:
Our Simply Fetching service is for clients who don't mind a little leg work but feel short on inspiration. Maybe you have a
look in your head but can't find the pieces to make it happen. Or perhaps you want to develop a room on an incremental basis,
as your time and budget permit. We gear a customized design concept book towards your needs and the styles you prefer. We are
happy to work with clients on residences but aren't limited to that- we'll also give you ideas for your office reception or small
cafe. You don't have to live or work in Charlotte, either. Every step can be done from afar via phone and internet. Simply
Fetching is a great alternative to traditional design services and offers clients the greatest possible degree of flexibility.
THE PROCESS:
First we need to know what your space looks like now. You send us photographs of the floor, ceiling, walls, and existing
furnishings, and then we walk you through how to measure your room for us. Second, we need to know what you want your space
to become. We go through an interview process together which covers likes and dislikes, as well as your goal for the space.
The first phase consists of a written survey that takes about 15 minutes to complete. The second phase consists of our follow-up
call to ask you questions that are a little more in-depth so we can fill in any missing pieces. Want to keep that 30-year old
flame stitch sofa? This is the time to let us know. We'll work around your requests, though we reserve the right to tease you
mercilessly. You are also highly encouraged to submit pictures from catalogs, design magazines, or the web that show styles or
ideas you like. You can tell us all day long what you have in mind, but a picture is worth a thousand words! After we get a
good handle on who you are and what you need, we go to work.
THE GOODS:
Roughly three to four weeks after completing your client interview and submitting your inspiration photos, you will receive
your Simply Fetching book at your doorstep. It contains a concept board full of images, furnishings, accessories, and
swatches. You will also get a furniture plan, which shows the exact location of everything we have selected for you. The
furniture plan is drawn to scale, so if you want to measure and follow it to the inch, you can! (Don't worry- we can explain
how to use a scale if you feel computationally challenged.) Most importantly, you will receive a list of everything we've put
together so you know how to track down all your precious beauties. The great thing about Simply Fetching is that we only pick
items that are available by phone or internet. There's no need to drag yourself all over town loaded down with shopping bags
and tearsheets. Everything can be done from the comforts of your own home. The last piece of the puzzle is an installation
guide. If you want to paint your den that beautiful new shade of chocolate we suggested, we include tips on the right way to
do it yourself, as well as hints about hiring a pro if you don't want to lift a finger.
After you have received your book, you are likely to have a question or two. That's no big deal- our service comes with as
many follow-up calls as you need to make sure you are on the right path.

THE RESULT:
We are just as excited about your new space as you are. Please send us photos of your room, version 2.0, so we can
see just how amazing it looks and give you a high-five. If it's a superstar, we'd love to feature it on an upcoming
Before & After addition to the Simply Fetching webpage!
