The Curated Product Guide: A digital guide featuring retail aesthetic specifications for furnishings, lighting, textiles, and decor—complete with professional Design Notes for styling and placement.
3D Visual Perspectives: High-quality, static 3D views and applicable elevations (for millwork concepts) to help you visualize the finished space.
Finish & Feature Curation:
Paint & Wallpaper: A curated palette including specific selections for walls, trim, and ceilings to ensure a cohesive, professional finish.
Window Treatments: Styled recommendations for fabric textures, curtain types, and hardware.
Custom Concepts: Where deemed appropriate for the space, I include conceptual elevations and "Design Intent" drawings for aesthetic millwork and built-ins.

Not included
This service is strictly conceptual and does not include technical blueprints, procurement, site supervision, or the design of high-complexity utility rooms (kitchens/baths); all purchasing, safety verification, and installation remain the client’s responsibility. Dear Alia does not physically inspect all retail selections. Clients are responsible for final verification of comfort, quality and return policies prior to purchase.
Our Process
Inquire
Send an email to hello@dearalia.com or use the contact form — I’d love to learn more about your project and confirm whether this service is the right fit for your space and needs.
Sign Agreement & Fill Out Questionnaire
Once you’ve secured your spot and signed the agreement, the stage is set. You’ll receive a tailored questionnaire to share your goals, style preferences, and space dimensions. Our creative process officially kicks off once your onboarding package is submitted, giving me everything I need to design a space that truly reflects you.
Design Magic
I’ll first develop your "North Star" Direction for review and feedback to ensure we're aligned. From there, I’ll create your complete Design Plans—a visually layered, conceptual package tailored to your needs. You’ll receive one final round of minor revisions to fine-tune the details before the project is closed.

FAQ
-
A conceptual design is a visual roadmap. I provide the creative vision—including the floor plan, 3D visuals, and a curated product guide—which acts as a "Design Intent" for you to follow. It’s the "look and feel" of the room, rather than a technical construction blueprint.
-
Not at all! Your entire project is delivered as a single, beautifully organized Digital PDF package. You can open it on any phone, tablet, or computer. All product suggestions include clickable links, so you can shop your new look with a single tap.
-
Since this is an online service, you (the client) are responsible for providing the initial room measurements and photos. I’ll provide a simple guide to help you do this accurately! Keep in mind that before you order furniture or start any work, you or your trades should always double-check the dimensions on-site.
-
Yes. We use your target range to guide our furniture and decor selections. While we make every effort to suggest items within that range, we do not provide price guarantees or line-item budgeting. Our recommendations refer to the base retail price and do not include HST, shipping, or trade labour.
-
The retail world moves fast! I provide a "snapshot" of what is available at the time of your design delivery. If an item sells out shortly after, your Design Notes will include the "why" behind that selection (e.g., "a 5x8 textured wool rug in oatmeal"), making it easy for you to find a similar alternative.
-
My drawings are for visual inspiration and aesthetic direction only. They show your carpenter or contractor the "vibe" and general scale you’re aiming for. Your hired professionals must create their own technical shop drawings and verify all safety codes (like heat clearances) before they start building.
-
To keep this service accessible and flexible, I do not offer project management or procurement. You act as the "Purchasing Agent" and project lead, giving you total control over your timeline and spending.
-
That’s what the "North Star" Direction is for! We align on the aesthetic soul of the room at the very beginning. This ensures that by the time I move into the 3D modeling and product sourcing phase, we are both heading in the exact same direction.
À La Carte E-Design
Beyond the full room concept
If you aren't looking for a complete overhaul, we offer more focused ways to work together in our À La Carte E-Design Services. These services are designed to help you make sense of a space, whether you are starting from a blank wall or trying to fix a room that doesn't quite feel right.
