The Commission

One of one.

Some spaces simply can’t be reduced to a collection.

The Commission is for the property, event, or vision that asks for more: more scale, more spaces, more customization, or simply more freedom.

There is no fixed piece count because there is no predetermined design.

We study the architecture, the approach, the entrances, the sightlines, and the experience you want someone to have when they arrive. Then we design around the space itself and source the season to fit the plan.

Custom fall installation designed for a wedding and event setting

Built for spaces that need more than a standard collection

Estate & acreage

Long approaches, expansive entries, wide stairs, multiple elevations, and properties where the design needs enough scale to feel intentional from both the driveway and the front door.

Multi-entry homes

Front entry. Side entry. Courtyard. Garage bays. Guest entrance. Rather than treating each area as a separate display, we can design them as one connected composition so the entire property feels considered.

Commercial spaces

Boutiques, offices, clubs, hospitality spaces, clinics, restaurants, and other businesses that want an entrance people notice before they ever walk through the door.

Weddings & events

Ceremonies, receptions, showers, private parties, corporate events, and seasonal celebrations can be designed as full Commission projects. The palette, scale, placement, and atmosphere are built around the occasion.

For the vision that needs its own direction

You’ve seen The Collection. You already know you want something different. Maybe it’s a particular palette. An unusual property. A dramatic installation. A restrained editorial look. Or an idea we have never built before.

This is where we stop choosing from the menu and start with the canvas.

Process

How a Commission comes together

  1. 01

    Show us the space

    Send photographs, plans, inspiration, and details about the property or event. Once we’ve reviewed them, we’ll schedule an on-site walk-through. Every Commission includes a walk-through so we can understand the scale, architecture, sightlines, access, and details that photographs alone can’t fully show.

  2. 02

    We establish the direction

    We develop the overall palette, scale, areas to be styled, and design direction based on the space and your goals.

  3. 03

    We source for the design

    Once the direction is established, sourcing is planned around the installation and the best available pieces of the season.

  4. 04

    We bring it to life

    We deliver, compose, style, and finish the installation on site. Every Commission includes White Glove Removal. When the season is over, we return to take down and remove the installation for you.

Rachel completely transformed our medical spa. Our clients were mesmerized and loved that we added the splendor. The White Glove service was incredible. Just as quietly and professionally as they delivered, they took it all away. The best part is that nothing goes to waste. At the end of the season, everything is donated to farmers for their livestock. My bleeding heart loves that. Consider us loyal customers for life.

Rachel worked with our florist, and together they gave me my dream anniversary party. Afterward, her team moved every single piece while Rachel transformed our entryway, so we enjoyed the installation all season instead of just one night.

Pricing

What does a Commission cost?

Custom work begins at $2,500.

Final pricing depends on the size of the property, number of areas being designed, quantities, specialty sourcing, selected enhancements, travel, installation requirements, and overall scope.

You’ll know the scope and the price before we move forward.

There is no “standard” Commission. That is the point.

A Commission may be a dramatic single entrance.

It may wrap around an estate.

It may transform a wedding venue.

It may be an entirely neutral installation for a luxury business.

It may become something neither of us had imagined before we saw the space.

If the idea deserves more room, this is where we give it room.

Request Your Commission Consultation

No payment is due until we have scoped the work together.

Begin your Commission

Tell us about the space.

Every Commission starts the same way: we look at the space before we talk about scope or price. Share the property, the timing and a few photographs, and Rachel will review them personally and reach out with next steps.

No payment is due until we have scoped the work together.

Custom work begins at $2,500. This only helps us design to the right scale.

Upload a few photos of the area or areas you would like us to design. Wide shots are most helpful. If you do not have photos handy, you can still submit your request.

We read every request personally. Your details stay private to the studio.

Commission imagery represents design direction and possibilities. Every Commission is individually scoped and designed for the client, property, or event.
