Nope—we're fully remote. We rely on your photos, videos, and dimensions, which are provided by you. (We recommend using certain specific typically free apps to generate your basic existing floor plan with measurements—that is, if your prefer the less arduous- “no tape measure needed” workflow- but this is client preference). Exact dimensions must be confirmed on-site by your contractor, licensed professional engineer, or licensed architect. We provide conceptual visuals and plans based on your provided measurements, and not ready- to - build construction plans

We get this question a lot—and it’s a great one.

We aren’t scared of AI and we may use AI tools to help generate conceptual mockups or enhance lighting and realism in visualizations. But here’s the key difference:

Our custom designs are created by our real , experienced and professional human designers using technical CAD software—for your actual space, with spatial strategy, and sourcing in mind.

AI can be a helpful spark for inspiration. But it won’t:

• Understand your heirlooms, layout quirks, or resale goals

• Dimension a layout properly

• Source shoppable products that align with your budget and taste

• Strategically connect your design with ROI

We bring professional experience, real estate insight, and aesthetic direction to each project—so you’re not just getting a pretty picture, but a clear visual plan with purpose

1. Submit Materials: Complete intake form, send roomphotos, dimensions, and inspiration links. Sign the contract- the part goes as fast as you-the client can complete it. It can be done in about a 20 min. sitting

2. Design Process: Our team creates your custom design package

3. Delivery: Most first drafts are delivered within 7-14 business days, depending on your package

4. We make scope relevant edits based on your correction requests

5. You get final deliverables usually in another 7-14 business days (on avg)

Yes! All packages include at least 2 rounds of revisions, in addition to the first draft— to ensure the design feels right for you. Revisions should stay within the original scope of work.

If you need additional changes beyond what’s included, they can be purchased separately. If your requested changes create an entirely new scope of work, a new package may need to be purchased.

That’s where we come in. We align your goals, your space, and your vision into a clear, and cohesive design and visualization plan.

No. All designs, renderings, layouts, and other deliverables are for your personal or project-specific use only. They may not be resold, redistributed, or used for other clients, commercial projects, or online publications without our written permission.

You may not share our deliverables with other design professionals for reuse, adaptation, or resale. We retain full intellectual property rights to all work—even after delivery.

While you’re welcome to implement the design in your space, the content is not transferable, not for resale, and not authorized for reproduction outside of your approved project.

Budget-Conscious Design

Absolutely. In your intake form, you'll let us know your budget and shopping preferences (Wayfair, Amazon, high-end, etc.).

Tailored Recommendations

We'll tailor your moodboard and product links according

Our packages are for design conceptualization and visualization only. While we can provide layout concepts, elevations, design-intent MEP overlays that show approximate placement of fixtures and systems for discussion with your licensed engineer and other visuals to illustrate design intent, we do not provide architectural or engineering services, and our drawings are not permit-ready.

All permitting, code compliance, and stamped construction documents must be completed by a licensed architect or engineer in your specific localjurisdiction. Our visuals are intended to help you clarify your vision and communicate with those professionals—not to replace them.

We do not pull permits or act as a general contractor. However, we're happy to coordinate with your architect, engineer, or contractor—or refer professionals we trust.

Due to the custom nature of our work, we do not offer refunds once you have signed our design contract. But we'll always work with you to make sure you're happy with the outcome.

Our sourcing recommendations are based on your approved design direction, but we do not guarantee product quality, perfect fit, or availability, as items may go out of stock or be discontinued. We do not offer procurement services at this time; all purchases are made independently by you. We recommend reviewing product details, reviews, measurements, and return policies before ordering.

If a product becomes unavailable (within 30 days of completion) or you’re not satisfied with a purchase, we’re happy to assist with alternative sourcing (potentially for an additional fee if it alters the design)

Some links may be affiliate links, which help support our work at no extra cost to you.

Yes, we’ve developed a streamlined virtual process that makes great design accessible and efficient— Our detailed intake form, design jump off call, visual inspiration boards, and optional add-ons like floor plans and 3D renderings allow us to fully understand your space, goals, and preferences. We also provide you screen recorded videos of our deliverable to help walk you though our design choices

Every project starts with a clear design direction based on your feedback, and you’ll receive visuals that help you confidently move forward. For clients who want more personalized collaboration, we also offer strategy sessions or upgrade options that include calls and revisions.

To create accurate conceptual layouts, we’ll need you to provide key property details—such as site measurements, photos, and any setback or zoning information from your local municipality or building department.

This information ensures our visuals reflect your site conditions as closely as possible. Please note: you are responsible for providing accurate zoning and setback requirements, and all final code compliance must be verified by a licensed professional.

You have full rights to use the visuals for your personal project or client presentations (if you are a white label or trade partner). They may not be resold, reused, or distributed as official construction documents. We retain the full ability to utilize our designs and visuals in our portfolio and marketing related materials

It depends on the scope but we commonly use 3ds max, Revit, Autocad, Lumion, BIM, and more

Yes! We’ve served clients across the U.S. and abroad. Please note:

• Time zones may affect response time and our hours of operation are typically 9a-3pm EST.

• Building codes differ by region, so all plans must be reviewed by local licensed professionals.

Our sourcing guides include curated product links (note- some links may be affiliate links). You or you contractor handles purchasing directly with vendors.

Our visuals are meant to communicate design intent, not replace construction documents. Your contractor can use them to understand your vision, but they must rely on final drawings prepared by licensed professionals in your specific jurisdiction before building.

Yes! Many of our clients use our deliverables as early-stage concept tools to share with their licensed professionals. Our work helps clarify the vision before it goes to drafting, permitting, or construction.

We recommend engaging a licensed architect or licensed professional engineer in your area for final construction documents. If needed, we can collaborate with your chosen professional to hand off our visuals and support the process. CAD .dwg files are available at an additional cost

We’re here to help! Schedule a call or reach out through our contact form and we’ll clarify anything about process, deliverables, or next steps.

Virtual interior design is a fully remote design service where a professional designer creates a complete design plan for your space — including layouts, material selections, sourcing guides, and photorealistic 3D renderings — without ever visiting your home. You provide photos, dimensions, and inspiration, and we deliver a buildable design package you can hand directly to your contractor.

The cost of a 3D interior rendering or exterior rendering depends on the scope of the project. At Mustard Seed Haven, our packages start with single-room virtual design and visualization, scaling up to whole-home and new construction packages. Each includes design, sourcing, and photorealistic renderings — not just images. Book a Design Alignment Call to get pricing specific to your project.

Yes — that's exactly what we do. Our virtual interior design and 3D rendering service lets you see photorealistic visuals of your actual space, with your actual dimensions and real sourceable materials, before a single dollar is spent on construction. This is the core of everything we offer at Mustard Seed Haven.

Yes. We have a dedicated service for builders, developers, and contractors. We provide pre-construction interior design and 3D rendering packages that help your clients visualize the finished space, reduce mid-project revisions, and accelerate design approvals.
