What is Elevated E-Design?
Online (Virtual) Interior Design is also known as E-Design (e-commerce design), and it is referring to Online Interior Design Services provided by utilizing technology and online platforms to develop & communicate the design plan. It offers a convenient way to receive professional design support from your home without the need for in-person consultations or long drawn out project timelines and fees.
Cley Atelier’s Elevated E-Design services are "elevated" because we offer a highly personalized, expert-driven approach that brings bespoke interiors within reach—no matter where you are. We bridge the gap between generic online decorating services and the exclusivity of full-service firms, providing a curated experience tailored to your style, space, and vision.

Through a seamless virtual process, we craft thoughtful, elevated interiors that reflect your unique tastes and lifestyle—without the time or cost of traditional full-service design. Every detail, from furniture selection to finishing touches, is intentionally chosen to create a cohesive, sophisticated space that feels truly yours.

FAQ's
What is the difference between Full Service Interior Design & Virtual Interior Design?
Full Service Interior Design involves larger scale projects and include in-person consultations, comprehensive project management, site visits, furniture procurement, and hands-on installation. Virtual Interior Design offers a more flexible, remote approach for one space at a time to create custom design plans and shopping lists that can be implemented on your own as time and budget allow.
How do I know which service is right for me?
To identify what service better suits you and your lifestyle, there are several key project factors to consider, including time frame, size and scope, budget, and level of involvement. Please schedule a complimentary discovery call to get started and we can help guide you to a service package recommendation based on your project goals.
How much do your design services cost?
We offer both Full Service Interior Design and Virtual Interior Design, each with its own pricing structure. We strive to ensure that our pricing remains competitive and reflective of the value and expertise we bring to each project. Our Virtual Interior Design Services are available at a flat rate, ensuring transparency and simplicity. For Full Service Interior Design, we charge an hourly rate that varies based on the project’s scale, complexity and scope. In general, Full Service Design Services typically account for approximately 20% of your overall budget. Once we receive your project details, we will provide a more accurate estimate tailored to your specific needs.
How long does a typical design project take?
We move with the pace of the project. Virtual Interior Design projects typically range from 1 day to 6 months depending on the selected service package & project scope.start to finish. From there, the timeframe for implementation is up to you. Full Service Interior Design projects can take anywhere from two to four years to complete, depending on the level of detail, the size of the home, and the builder’s timeline.

Throughout Christine's 20+ years of experience she has worked with clients throughout the United States & Internationally (including managing large projects thousands of miles away -remotely from California).
