Ensured Ease Design: The EED Process!
Since 2003, our full-service residential and commercial interior design firm has helped improve our customers’ experience when working with contractors. The fact is, without design support, almost 80% of all home-building or remodel clients go over budget by 20+% and still fail to achieve the client’s vision! Jodi Peterman developed the Ensured Ease Design Process to assist clients in achieving their vision, while giving them more control over their budget !
It’s NEVER too early to involve your designer!
From the floor plan to the type of grout that’s best for your project, Elizabeth Erin Designs will be there for you through your building or remodeling process. Let our expertise guide you, to ease the process. Your EED documents are the key to working with your contractors to obtain bids based on real products and designs instead of working off allowances. Having real bids allows you to make informed decisions about your selections and where to put your budget dollars based on what’s important to you BEFORE you purchase or sign off on selections. This process saves you money in the long run by not having to use your contingency money and will allow you a budget for furniture, window coverings, and accessories that make your new space feel like home sooner rather than later!
How The EED Process Works
1
Complimentary Consultation:
Meet with the CEO, owner, and interior designer, Jodi Peterman virtually for a complimentary half-hour consultation. We will review the project scope of your project, goals, timelines, and budget so she can understand what you need and customize a design package that will achieve your vision! You will also review the example documents you will be receiving so everyone is on the same page regarding your project scope. Within 48 business hours of your consultation, you will be sent a proposal via email with several options to work with Elizabeth Erin Designs Team on your project. Once you make a selection, sign the contract, and pay the deposit you will move to step number 2.

Introduction/Initial Meeting:
Jodi will then send an introduction email to you and your lead designer. Your designer will contact you within 48 business hours of this email with information and possible dates to set up the initial meeting.
At this meeting, your designer will review your project scope, and the inspirational images you want to share. She will also take measurements, and photos of the spaces her team will be working on. Within 48 business hours of this appointment, she will send you an email to review timelines of when you can expect to receive information.

The Review/Revisions
Your review appointment will be scheduled 2-4 weeks after your initial meeting with your professional interior designer. At this appointment, your designer will go over all the documents, renderings, designs, and samples. Your designer will take notes and give you timelines for receiving updated documents with any requested revisions. Your designer will make the first round of revisions and give you a timeline of when you can expect to see them and have a second review, and so on. Three sets of revisions are included in your fee, you will be billed separately for additional sets of revisions. We will work with you to make sure your vision is achieved!
