Why Hiring a Design Firm Gives You More Than Just a Designer
When you’re planning a renovation or building your dream home, choosing the right partner makes all the difference. Many homeowners consider hiring an independent designer, but at Hibou Design & Co., we believe there are distinct advantages to working with a full-service firm. Our team isn’t just made up of designers—it’s a collaboration of specialists who each bring unique expertise to every project.
Principal Designer Involvement
Every project that passes through Hibou begins with the creative direction of our Principal Designer. Eugenia ensures that the conceptual phase of your design reflects the signature Hibou aesthetic while also being tailored to your lifestyle. Clients can feel confident knowing their project carries the same elevated vision that defines our work.
One Dedicated Point of Contact
While your project benefits from an entire team, you’ll never feel overwhelmed by too many voices. You’ll work directly with one lead designer who serves as your dedicated point of contact throughout the process. Behind the scenes, that lead coordinates with the rest of the Hibou team to make sure every detail is handled.
A Team That Covers Every Phase
Our design team is composed of designers at all levels, which means your project benefits from multiple perspectives and skill sets at every stage. Senior designers lead the vision, junior designers bring in fresh, detail-oriented eyes, and each person contributes in a way that aligns with their strengths.
Alongside our designers, we have dedicated in-house specialists:
Architectural Technologist – Ensures your plans are structurally sound, technically accurate, and fully compliant.
Procurement Specialist – Manages sourcing, ordering, and logistics so every piece arrives on time and as planned.
Design Coordinator – Acts as our eyes and ears on site during construction, making sure the design vision is executed down to the smallest detail.
More Eyes, Fewer Missed Details
One of the biggest advantages of working with a team is that your project passes through multiple hands and is reviewed from different angles. This not only helps us catch details before they become problems, but it also enriches the final design. Everyone uses their home differently, and our collective input ensures both the aesthetic and the function are thoughtfully considered.
Continuity & Efficiency
With a team in place, projects don’t stall if one person is unavailable. Work keeps moving forward, deadlines stay on track, and clients benefit from the efficiency of specialized roles. Each task is handled by the person who does it best, which saves time and reduces costly mistakes.
A Refined Client Experience
At Hibou, we know that managing a renovation can feel overwhelming. That’s why our specialized roles are designed to take the stress off your shoulders. From technical drawings to managing deliveries to coordinating with contractors, we handle the details so you don’t have to.
The End Result: A Higher Standard of Design
Clients who work with Hibou Design & Co. aren’t just hiring a designer; they’re hiring a full-service firm committed to delivering a seamless experience and a finished home that’s as functional as it is beautiful. We collectively make sure every project gets the attention, detail, and creativity it deserves.
