Interior Design

Interior design for casually elegant, UpNorth living.

The Quiet Moose is a full-service Northern Michigan interior design firm and furniture store based in Petoskey, Michigan with projects located in the Northern Lower Peninsula and surrounding areas. Our interior designers work closely with our clients in their design process helping to develop their ideas, translating individual requirements and aspirations into beautiful interiors tailored to suit our clients’ unique lifestyles. From conception to completion, The Quiet Moose is recognized for elegance, individuality, and remarkable attention to detail; from architectural space planning and material selections including custom cabinetry, kitchen and bath design,lighting, and furnishings to the last work of art and accessories.

We consider it a privilege to be entrusted with the design of our clients’ personal spaces and value the relationships made in the process. While our design philosophy is consistent throughout our work, no two projects will look the same. Each is a reflection of the unique architecture, setting, and individuality of our clients.

OUR INTERIOR DESIGN PROCESS, STEP-BY-STEP

From your first, consultation with your designer right through to the delivery day here’s what to expect when you embark on the QM Home Interior Design Service.

THE DESIGN QUESTIONNAIRE

Start the process by completing the design questionnaire using the button below

THE INITIAL DESIGN CALL

It begins with a phone call to learn about your project and access your design needs. This is where we’ll talk through your ideas and wish lists. We will answer your questions and explain how our design process works during this conversation.

THE INITIAL DESIGN MEETING

Once you decide to move forward, your designer will send a design agreement outlining the project goals, projected timeline, and design fees to ensure we are on the same page. Once the design agreement is signed, your designer will schedule an in-depth design session at our design center. Together, we’ll go over the scope of the project, including your floor plan layouts, design concepts, color palette, textiles, etc. This meeting will be the catalyst for developing your design concept and proposal.

YOUR DESIGN PRESENTATION

Once your design presentation is ready, we’ll invite you back into the design studio to present the project, discuss options, and make any necessary revisions. You’ll have some or all of the following items to review: digital design slides, floor plans with furniture placement, textile and finish samples, and a detailed quote to review and approve.

DELIVERY DAY

Our professional white-glove delivery team will unwrap, assemble and position your furniture, and remove all packaging for recycling. Your
designer will also be there to style your home so by the time we leave, all that’s left for you to do is sit back and enjoy!
