EXPERT DESIGN HELP THAT IS FRIENDLY AND ACCESSIBLE

When it comes to choosing pieces for your home, it can seem like there are a million question marks. Making all the decisions that go into buying anything for your decor, be it a new sofa or simply a few pieces for your mantle, can be a real challenge.

While a designer is often necessary for large projects, sometimes you just need an expert eye to provide a second opinion and help pull things together.

Furbish founder and designer Uma Stewart has helped numerous customers and clients to accomplish the right balance of sophisticated and relaxed for the home.

The PERSONAL BUYING CONSULTATION is our answer to the many requests Uma receives every week to provide design assistance and style recommendations to Furbish customers.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

For a small fee a Furbish design associate will come to your home and review your furniture and decor buying needs. She or he will then come back with a presentation of furnishings custom selected for you and your home. You make your choices and we will handle the purchasing details. It's simple.

WHAT IS COVERED IN THE SERVICE?

The PERSONAL BUYING CONSULTATION is intended to assist you in choosing the best possible items from our wide selection of seating, tables, case pieces, storage, lighting, rugs, accessories, and art. Each line we carry and all of our signature pieces have been personally selected by Uma. We also provide custom window treatments in the styles that Uma uses for her design clients.

The basic service provides:

  • one initial meeting to review your space
  • one presentation of furnishing options
  • in-studio follow-up for finalizing details

The consultation includes basic measuring. We consider your existing furnishings and provide advice on furniture layouts and wall color as needed. The design associate may create sketches to give you a clear sense of how recommended pieces will work for you.

WHO ARE THE DESIGN ASSOCIATES?

In addition to education in the field of interior design, each associate has also worked alongside Uma and received training in combining colors, materials, and styles in her signature way. By working on major design projects, the associates receive valuable experience in making choices that produce beautiful rooms.

WHAT IS THE DESIGN STYLE OF FURBISH?

Uma Stewart has pioneered the style of "low key luxury for the cultured life." The central components of her interiors are:

  • light, space, and clean lines
  • the right mix of styles to combine casual elements with more dressed up ones
  • neutral and natural color palettes with small hits of bright color for interest
  • incorporating pieces that reflect a worldly perspective

These tenets guide the offerings at Furbish Home. Uma also strongly believes in homes that reflect your own unique style. Share your visions with us, and we will work with you to transform your home into a personal style statement.
