Style and Process<\/div>\n

Why use an experienced, well respected interior designer?<\/h1>\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Endless series of decisions and choices achieve a look.<\/h1>\n

Consideration of all the elements before on-line or any purchase can be complex:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Texture, light sources, color<\/li>\n
  • Size, height and volume<\/li>\n
  • Relationship of all objects in the room and the whole house<\/li>\n
  • The unexpected to give character and pull a look together<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    “A Professional designer\u2019s experience, impartial advice and overview, not a salesperson\u2019s lens, is extremely important to create a look”<\/h1>\n
    \n

    New construction<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    Get a designer to go over your architect\u2019s plans and make suggestions to anticipate the inside space requirements for furniture and your lifestyle. It is important to design from the inside so you can enjoy the flow of your home.<\/p>\n

    Updating or remodeling<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    Get the designer to identify what needs to be reviewed to have an impact.<\/p>\n

    Builders demand instant decisions<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    A decision’s impact is often hard to visualize, one wrong decision can impact the overall look and functionality of the interior of a home. Also, the outside look of the home should tell a similar story to the interior. Outside and inside textures and colors do matter. Small details matter to the whole look.<\/p>\n

    Inside and Outside should work together<\/strong><\/h2>\n

      \n\t\t\tServices\t\t<\/h1>\n<\/div>\n
      \n

      Furniture:<\/strong> We will source from the manufacturer or retailer at trade prices. We look at style, comfort, function and durability and fit for your family and the look for the home. We then provide layout suggestions and floor plans.<\/p>\n

      We find unique or fabulous pieces: Sofas, sectionals, occasional chairs, Dining tables and chairs, benches, stools; coffee, cocktail and end tables; consoles.<\/p>\n

      Upholstery:<\/strong> Designers source unique, durable, elegant, wow, fun or inexpensive fabrics to complement and custom new furniture. Or repurpose your existing furniture. They can add a trim, change a skirt, add pin cushioning, or tone down a piece.<\/p>\n

      Window treatments:<\/strong> Designers style to solve problems (privacy, light) or create a look with fabulous, wow, neutral or inexpensive fabric to finish your room. They select hardware, fabric, trims, get measurements and organize installation to get the right look. Shutters and specialty shades across brands are also researched and considered.<\/p>\n

      Floors:<\/strong> Floors are the biggest continuous space in the room. The color and texture of the carpet or rug measurements can have a huge impact on the room. Designers find the right fit and look, install carpet or rugs, and make floor covering recommendations. We also recommend wood floor stains, woods finishes, and sealants. We also look at stone, polished cement and tiles.<\/p>\n

      Paint colors and Wallpaper:<\/strong> Flat, eggshell, pearl, semi-gloss or gloss paint? Oil or latex; two coats or one coat? Had you thought about the color
      palette for your style of home, furniture and decorative items? All the rooms in the house need to look good together whether adjacent or upstairs. You need these to be all the same story otherwise there will be conflict and the overall look may not work. Light affects the color of your rooms throughout the day. The textures and hues for the whole house need to be taken into account. Wallpaper selection is also tricky and durability and look with the surrounding rooms are important.
      We sourcing and install wallpaper.<\/p>\n

      Lighting:<\/strong> These days luminosity and manufacturers offerings change regularly. Lighting can make or break a look. We look for functional, exceptional pieces that give off the right amount of light for whatever your needs.<\/p>\n

      Powder and Bathrooms:<\/strong> Baths, sinks, shower glass, tiles, vanities, toilets and faucets, spouts and most important the Layout. We will give you the look that suits your home.<\/p>\n

      Kitchens:<\/strong> I am a chef and I love great appliances, surfaces and storage. I keep up with manufacturer’s courses. I Like to have a functional kitchen, that is extraordinary and a fabulous entertaining space too.<\/p>\n

      Soft Furnishings and decorative objects:\u00a0<\/strong>These are the finishing touches that make or break a room. Bedcovers, valances, shams and pillows and cushions. Tablecloths, napkins, vases candles, will make the look work. Doormats, outdoor and indoor plants, and pots.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/section>\n

      \n

      DHD was established by the former stylist, image consultant and editor of Better Homes and Gardens Australia. Diana has lived in the US for over 20 years. Through extensive travels I have observed many looks. <\/em><\/p>\n

      I like people and work to understand their needs; so listening, timing and follow through are important. I established Diana Hannes Design 15 years ago after volunteering for charity design work and my business started from there.<\/p>\n

      My inspiration comes from my client\u2019s dreams. I put my visualization skills and psychology training and knowledge of what is available as well as my many years of observation across cultures into these dreams. I have a deep understanding of the Design business and all there is to offer. I work with Architects and Builders and I have my own team for smaller projects.<\/p>\n

      My projects have taken me outside of the Washington DC area. I work across budgets and large and small projects interest me. I work to get the best result for my client and that includes the finished product as well as working within my client\u2019s budget. My business is very much on a referral basis so my client\u2019s long term satisfaction is foremost in my thoughts.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
