The MODO method is simple: see what the space needs, make strong decisions, and execute them completely. MODO works locally, remotely, and beyond.

The MODO Method

  • DESIGN SESSIONS

    Expert direction. Complete roadmap. You Execute.

    Design Sessions are for clients who want expert eyes, strong taste, and clear direction.

    Sessions can cover anything from layouts, lighting, and drapery plans to hardware selections, paint palettes, tile direction, furniture placement, art scale, and sourcing strategy.

    HOW IT WORKS

    1. Initial Consultation - We start with a 30-minute call to understand your project and determine if we're a good fit. Before the call, you'll submit our project inquiry form with photos, dimensions, and inspiration images.

    2. Design Session - Once booked, we schedule your working session—a focused day (in-person or virtual) where we walk your space, review your goals, and make decisions together.

    3. Design Direction Deck - Within 5-7 days, you receive a complete Design Direction Deck, a unique PDF document (20-25 pages) that includes:

    -Action plan (what to do, in what order)

    -Paint specifications (exact colors and application)

    -Design specifications (what you need: sizes, styles, materials, budget ranges)

    -Visual reference board (inspiration images showing style direction)

    -Vendor categories (where to shop)

    -Budget projection

    4. You Execute - You take the roadmap and execute it yourself, shopping and installing at your own pace.

    -Renovations needing quick clarity and smart decisions

  • STYLING + STAGING

    Complete Execution. We source, you approve, we install.

    Styling + Staging is about the real magic: placement, scale, layering, editing, and finishing. Many clients already own great pieces. They just do not know how to put them together, what to move, what to remove, and what the room still needs.

    This service blends curation and execution. We source everything, present you with curated options, handle all ordering and logistics, and show up on install day to place and style it all.

    HOW IT WORKS

    1. Initial Consultation - We start with a 30-minute call to understand your project. You'll submit our project inquiry form with photos, dimensions, and inspiration before the call.

    2. Working Session - Once you've signed the agreement and paid the deposit, we schedule your working session where we walk the space and establish design direction.

    3. Design Direction Deck - Within 5-7 days of the session, you receive your Design Direction Deck with the complete roadmap: paint specs, design direction, visual references, and budget projection. You review and approve the direction.

    4. Product Presentation - Once direction is approved, we source all products. Within 10-14 days, you receive a Product Presentation Deck (25-40 pages) with:

    -2-3 curated options per item

    -Product images, specifications, links, pricing, lead times

    -Our recommendations clearly marked

    -Investment summary

    5. You Approve - You review the presentation and select which options you want. One round of revisions is included if you don't like something.

    6. We Execute - We place all orders, track everything, coordinate delivery, and show up on install day to place and style it all. You get a finished room.

MODO Client Code

  1. Soul over trends. If it will look stupid in 5 years, it does not belong in your home.

  2. Confidence over chaos. Every decision should reduce noise and increase clarity.

  3. Collected, not decorated. A home is built through layers, stories, and editing.

  4. Beauty must work. If it cannot hold up to real life, it is not good design.

  5. Respect the craft. Tradespeople are part of the art. We collaborate with skill and integrity.

  6. Honest timelines. Great spaces take time. We plan like grown-ups.

  7. Decide, then move. We choose well and keep going.

  8. Fit matters. Scale, proportion, placement make the difference.
