SHIPPING – GENERAL
All orders for in-stock merchandise are usually processed and shipped out within one week of order. However, much of our merchandise is housed at the manufacturers’ warehouses, which can very often be in another state, or even in Canada as is the case with Gus Modern. If this is the case, an order can take up to four weeks to process. Ocassionally, an item needs to be shipped from overseas. In this case, an item can take up to 12 weeks for delivery. Please contact us in advance of your order so we can provide a reasonable estimate of delivery times on a case-by-case basis. If you have any other questions regarding shipping, please email us at:

When ordering large furniture pieces, it is very often quite difficult to return the merchandise due to the sheer size of the item ordered and the shipping costs involved. Please be sure to consider this before ordering your piece. We will consult with you via phone or email to make sure any questions you have about the piece are answered. We can send you fabric samples for upholstered pieces as well. Essentially, returns can not be made on furniture pieces, so choose wisely.

INTERIOR DESIGN FAQ’S
How do I embark on an interior design project with Global Home?

The process begins with an initial design consultation. We meet in your home for the initial interview. During the initial interview we determine your design needs, budget, how you will use your new space, ascertain your personal style, take measurements and photographs, and inventory your current furniture.

From then, we take about two weeks to deliver an initial design schematic which consists of:

  • A diagram of your home with an ideal furniture layout
  • An estimated overall cost for new furniture and decor
  • An image gallery of recommended new items

Does this initial interview cost anything?
Generally the charge is $250 for the initial meeting which will take one or two hours. This charge is to be paid after the initial consultation. Should you decide to hire us, this charge will be deducted from the overall cost of the project. Also there is a charge of $1,250 for the furniture layouts and recommended item imagery which is also deducted from the cost of the project should we move forward. Two design schematics are included in this charge. Should additional schematics be required, an hourly charge of $150 is affixed.  This additional fee is not deducted from the total project cost.

How long does the entire design process take?
Once the overall design schematic is agreed upon, a small project can be completed in as little as three weeks. Larger projects can take three months or more. The timing very much depends on the amount of custom pieces being used in the project. The more custom pieces, the greater lead time required.

Can my current furniture be incorporated into the new design plan?
Yes, to a point. We strive to utilize as much of your current furniture into the new design plan as possible. You’ve spent a lifetime accumulating things that make you happy.  We find that your current furniture is a good jumping-off point for a more cohesive design plan. Often, however, some pieces just can’t be used. If they are of poor quality, too worn, out-dated or just not in keeping with the new design plan, we cannot use them.

How much will it cost?
Costs vary depending on the scope of projects. Single rooms can be outfitted for as little as $5,000, but can also be furnished for $50,000 and up. While costs vary, we strive to work within our individual clients’ budget parameters.

What is the fee structure?

  • Client pays full retail price on items sourced through Global Home. This is usually the vast majority of the merchandise.
  • Client pays full retail plus 30% fee on items other than those sourced from Global Home.
  • Client pays shipping and delivery charges to get items to your home.
  • Client pays the installation of any wallpaper, carpet, paint, hard-wired lighting or window treatments, etc. at market rates via sub-contracted professionals.
  • Client pays hourly fee of $150/hr for any time spent in your home decorating or developing of design schematics beyond the first two.

Please note, if the total project cost is under $5,000, we do assess a fee of 30% of the total project cost.

In what style of décor do you specialize?
We work in a wide variety of design genres depending on the needs and tastes of our clients. We tend to gravitate towards an eclectic-modern vibe, although we are well-versed in the gamut of decorating styles. Browse some past projects under the Interior Design category.
