Interiors & Spatial Design
Tell me about the space and what you're hoping for.
This questionnaire helps me understand your space, how it's used, and what you're working toward before we meet. Take as much or as little room as you need — your answers guide everything from the first concept to the final detail.
The Project
Or neighbourhood / city — happy to receive the full address at our first meeting.
Select all that apply — choose a property type above to see relevant options.
Select a property type above to load space options.
Vision & Aesthetic
Three words, a feeling, a place — whatever comes naturally.
A Pinterest board, Instagram saves, a hotel you loved, a magazine spread. Links or descriptions — whatever's easiest.
Natural stone, limewash plaster, unlacquered brass, warm oak — anything specific you keep returning to.
Knowing what doesn't fit is just as useful as knowing what does.
Life & Function
Residents, staff, customers, members — describe who the space serves and roughly how many.
Layout frustrations, storage gaps, a room that never feels right — the things you'd change tomorrow if you could.
Heirloom furniture, meaningful art, a rug you love — anything with staying power.
Scope, Budget & Timeline
Move-in, listing, event.
A broad range is completely fine — it helps me scope the work and source appropriately from the start.
Completing the project in stages — by room or by scope — can make the process more manageable.
Working Together
If so, what worked well — and what would you change?
The end-of-project feeling — not a list of deliverables, but how you'd describe it to a friend.
Residential Styling & Layout
Let's talk about your space and what you'd like it to say.
Whether you're preparing a home for market or refreshing a space you love living in, this questionnaire helps me understand the property, the goal, and how to use what you already have beautifully.
The Property
Select all that apply — we'll prioritize together.
Goal & Purpose
Think about who you want to connect with — a buyer, a guest, yourself at the end of the day. You're also welcome to send Pinterest boards or photo inspiration directly to caroline@caro-concepts.com or via Instagram @caro_concepts.
Not sure yet — that's completely fine. Share any thoughts here, or we can work this out together once I've seen the space.
What You Have
Walk me through the main spaces. Photos are welcome if it's easier to share in follow-up.
Paint colours, flooring, fixtures, rental restrictions — anything that stays as-is.
Timeline, Logistics & Budget
Knowing who and when helps me coordinate the styling timeline.
Organization Systems
Let's bring ease and order to your space.
Whether one drawer is driving you mad or an entire home feels unmanageable, this questionnaire helps me understand your habits, your storage, and what systems would actually stick for you.

Spaces to Organise
Select all that apply — we'll prioritize together once I understand the full picture.
The space you avoid opening, or the one that makes everything feel harder.
Current State
Bins, drawer dividers, hooks, labels — anything already in place.
What worked, what didn't — and why do you think it slipped?
Habits & Lifestyle
Number of people, ages, daily routines — helps me design systems that everyone can actually follow.
Editing is part of the process — I'll never pressure you, but knowing where you stand helps me plan.
Vision & Goals
Calming, effortless, purposeful — describe the feeling more than the look.
Clear containers, matching bins, minimal labelling, decanted pantry — or you're happy to follow my lead.
A move, a new baby, guests arriving, or simply whenever works — just let me know.
Event & Hosting Design
Tell me about the gathering you're imagining.
Whether you have a fully-formed vision or just a feeling, this is the place to share it. The best events are rooted in a specific mood — I'll help you articulate and execute it.
The Event
Your home, outdoor space, rented venue — address if you have one.
Close friends, colleagues, a mix, family — helps me pitch the concept at the right register.
Atmosphere & Vision
Romantic and warm, convivial and relaxed, elevated and theatrical — even contradictions are helpful.
A colour world, a time of year's quality of light, a specific material — anything that orients the concept.
Events you've attended, a film dinner scene, an Instagram save, a hotel meal — links or descriptions.
Scope of Involvement
Florist, caterer, rental company, photographer — note anyone you're already working with.
Budget & Hosting History
Not logistics — the feeling at the end of the evening when guests are gone.
