Websites for interior designers
Web design for interior designers: £249.99 to build, then £49.99 a month, no minimum term. Clients fear losing control and losing count. Explain how you charge before they ask.
Prospective clients love the images and worry about everything else: whether they will end up with somebody else's taste, whether they can say no, and how much this is going to cost by the time it is finished.
The portfolio handles the first half of that conversation. Almost no interior design website handles the second, which is where the enquiry is actually lost.
What your customers want answered
- How do you charge — fixed fee, percentage, or hourly
- Do you make money on the furniture you specify, and is that disclosed
- What happens if I do not like the scheme
- Can you do one room rather than a whole house
- Do you manage the trades or do I
Be transparent about trade discountsClients frequently suspect that specification is driven by margin. Explaining plainly how procurement works in your practice, and whether discounts are passed on, converts a private suspicion into a reason to trust you.
Only showing whole-house projects
Many clients want one difficult room solved and assume you would not be interested. Saying that you take smaller commissions opens a large, easier-to-win market.
Portfolio first, process second
Clients choose a designer on taste. Show completed projects with good photography, grouped by type such as kitchens, living spaces, whole homes or commercial interiors, with a few lines on the brief and what you changed.
Then explain how you work: first consultation, concept and mood boards, sourcing, ordering and installation, and whether you manage trades.
Fees and ways to work together
Explain how you charge, whether a fixed fee, hourly or a percentage of the budget, and the options: full design, a single room or online design advice.
Common questions
- What should an interior designer's website include?
- A portfolio by project type, your process, whether you manage trades, how you charge and ways to work together.
- Should I explain fees?
- Yes. It helps clients judge fit before calling.
- Do I offer online design?
- If you do, give it its own section.
