Whether you’re embarking on a new construction project to build your "custom" home or you’re renovating parts of your current home, HaylieRead Design can help.
We take the time to genuinely get to know you—your dreams, your preferences, your needs (even your kid’s needs)—and transform your vision into a home that reflects your unique style and lifestyle. No cookie-cutter design strategies here, because that’s not what you’re hiring professionals for!
A true full-service design studio, HaylieRead Design offers a comprehensive range of services, taking on every single component of the process from conception to completion. We'll create a fully custom design catered to your exact needs and take the necessary steps to bring it to life. All that’s left for you to do is enjoy the transformation!
With any interior design project, endless strategic decisions must be made. Everything ranging from paint colors and finishes, to light switch locations and fixtures, all the way to the logistical process of actually bringing it together in a way that’s functional and safe.
Interior Designers are well-versed in every component of a large-scale design project. They’ll act as your partner to help navigate decisions, tie spaces together, and be the project manager making sure it all comes together perfectly.
The first step is building a team that will work together. And that means hiring an interior designer right from the start!
At the beginning of any project, it is best to have all parties—architect, designer, contractor— all present, communicating, and understanding your goals.
Think about it like making lasagna: the best part about it is that the delicious ingredients are all layered. If you only add sauce at the end, the lasagna will fall flat. Same thing with Interior Design. If the designer comes to the table at the end, the overall design will be surface-level and not fully integrated.
This all depends on the overall scope. A new construction project could take 1 to 2 years to design, build, and finalize. Whereas a bathroom renovation could take 2 months from design to construction. Once HaylieRead sits down with you to learn more about your project, we will be able to provide an estimated timeline.
Our studio is based in Hinsdale, IL, and while our clients are primarily based in the Western Chicagoland area, we do offer design services for our client’s vacation homes throughout the USA.

One of the most important factors to consider when hiring an interior designer is whether or not they’re NCIDQ certified. NCIDQ is the nationwide Interior Design certification that requires over 8,000 professional work hours and 3 passed exams. This certification ensures the designer’s proficiency for design, construction codes, and details. NCIDQ validates that a designer cares about the function and the end result of a project.
