I'll spend up to 6 hours in your home, walking through it and arranging the furniture and hanging the artwork that you already have. Leave it to me! I ask that you leave while I work, or perhaps work in your office, or sit by the pool... basically give me time to work. When you come back your chosen rooms will be rearranged, edited, and looking fabulous. Also, when you come back I will explain the reasons for my choices, and give you insider tips. Where necessary, I will give you a list of recommendations and ideas for your home. I will pick out paint on site, and all you have to do is call the painter. VIP Day can be given as a gift also.

Everything above but I will spend up to 3 hours in your home. A good way to get the most out of the 3 hours, is to clear off table tops, and take down pictures/artwork/mirrors so I can get right to work. I will give you a few things to do in preparation for my visit if you like, that will help you get the most out of this option.

Alexandra studied Interior Design in Atlanta, GA and interned for two of Atlanta's top Interior Design firms, as well as held a Parisian based fine art internship during her study.
She has designed interiors for young adults, families, retirees, vacation homes, church offices, store windows and designed weddings and countless dinner parties from the floral arrangements to the catering, lighting and table tops.
She has several clients in the Tampa Bay Area and welcomes the opportunity to earn your trust and deliver you the best service and design for your home. She believes in the power of referrals and the relationship she makes with her design resources.
A high percentage of her business is from referrals; however, she welcomes new clients often from this website, and even her twitter account!
Alexandra believes in being involved in her community. While a college student and intern, she was active with Trees Atlanta — planting and caring for trees throughout Atlanta on Saturdays.
She also became a mentor to a little sister through Big Brothers Big Sisters of Atlanta and though the match was for three years, she still remains in contact long distance.
She began her Tampa Bay involvement with her designer showcase in Kenwood to benefit Children's Cancer Center.
I agree! It seems like a luxury to have an Interior Designer! The way I see it, it should be accessible to have an Interior Designer and I want to "demystify" the process. I've set up my services so that you know the time commitment, and convenience I'm offering. The pricing is a simple package deal, with other a la carte options to choose from. I'm not interested in high volume — I'd rather overwhelm a few than underwhelm many.
I can help you choose, and keep it as simple as needed. I'm not going to push or sell you. It is a win-win if we are both happy and working towards what is right for you. I prefer to have frank discussions that lead to a functional, creative design that is custom for your life and home.
I will give you a questionnaire to fill out, that will ask about your preferences, how you use your home, and other interview style questions first. Then I will speak with you about the questionnaire, and listen to you as you describe your hopes for your home, needs, and anything else you have on your mind.
I will give you a schematic design, and direction to achieving your goals, dreams etc. and we will both tweak it as necessary before we begin. Along our way, I'll check in with you and make certain you are happy. It's more rewarding for me if you are happy and excited about your home. It's not about me! I have a lot of experience, education and training as well as a natural creative side!
It was a great pleasure working with Alexandra Thomas. Throughout the design process, Alex was thoughtful and respectful of our ideas and concerns listening carefully before presenting us with a fabulous vision of what the interior of our condo could look like. She had the daunting task of not only designing but project managing the cabinet maker and contractor we had already chosen. Alex's quality of service more than exceeded our expectations. She followed up on every detail, returned phone calls promptly and worked closely with the subcontractors to make sure we were completely satisfied. As we were in another state, she even kept us updated with pictures of the progress. We also had a rather firm deadline for completion, and while it was close she hit the mark.Don and Jo Ann Hays
Alex is passionate about what she does and fun to work with. She understands space, is extremely creative and has a keen sense of color. She never loses sight of the big picture while always paying attention to the smallest details. Alex has created a space for us well beyond our dreams and we will enjoy it for years to come.
