When planning a home renovation, many homeowners assume hiring an interior designer is an added expense — something reserved for luxury projects or large budgets. In reality, partnering with a professional designer often saves both time and money while ensuring your finished space looks and functions beautifully.

At Christy Brown Interior Design, we guide clients across Baltimore, Harford, and Cecil Counties through every stage of the renovation process — from design concept to material selections and final styling — making sure every decision is intentional and efficient.
1. Avoid Costly Mistakes
Designing and renovating simultaneously can be overwhelming. Choosing the wrong paint color, cabinet layout, or lighting placement can be expensive to fix later. A professional designer helps you make the right choices the first time, ensuring every element works together harmoniously and fits your lifestyle.
2. Access to Trusted Resources and Trade Discounts
Designers have relationships with trusted contractors, craftspeople, and vendors, giving clients access to better pricing and higher-quality materials. Christy also offers custom furniture and curated furnishings that are not available in retail stores — ensuring your home reflects your personal style while staying within budget.
3. Streamlined Project Management
From coordinating with contractors to overseeing design installations, interior designers act as your project manager. This keeps your renovation on schedule and reduces stress, especially when juggling multiple moving parts.
4. Increase Your Home’s Value
A well-designed home isn’t just beautiful — it’s an investment. Professional design improves flow, functionality, and resale appeal. Even small updates done with the right eye for detail can increase a home’s value significantly.
5. Turn Your Vision Into Reality
Many homeowners know what they like but struggle to bring it all together. A designer translates your ideas into a cohesive plan that reflects your taste and meets your practical needs — all while avoiding expensive trial and error.
