Hourly Consultation

  • Some clients know exactly what they want, but need help being pointed in the right direction. For these clients who are more hands-on, we bill a flat hourly rate. Consultation can focus on any aspect of your home: interior, exterior, one room or space, or the full home.

    Expenses, construction materials, and product are marked up 20%; billing takes place monthly. The therapy, though, is free.

    We can also work with your preferred licensed contractors or vendors.

Pre-Purchase Consultation

  • When looking for your dream home, sometimes it’s a little more work than you might have anticipated. Michael Norpell is happy to walk through any real estate you’re looking at to help you imagine what might be done. Clients often wonder about the return on investment, for which Michael has years of experience considering the cost of the investment and the return on investment. For real-time household comparisons, Michael enjoys collaborating with realtors across Southern California and beyond.

  • “His design was very professional, creative, unique and most importantly the design aesthetic was what we were looking for and had described to him.”

    Adrienne C.
