• Havenly is an online platform that offers a range of affordable interior design services ($19-$179) to help you make over your space.

Interior design shows make it look so easy. As I lay on my couch eating a bag of chips and watching the transformation from bland to beautiful unfold, I muse, "I could probably do that." 

Spoiler: No, I cannot. In reality, most of us who want to update our space don't know where to start, have the time to brainstorm and shop, or even know what our personal style is to begin with. 

Havenly, an online interior design service founded in 2014 with nearly $26 million in funding, is out to clear up the confusion. 

Sisters and former business consultants Lee Mayer and Emily Motayed created Havenly out of personal need. Both moved into new homes and had difficulty designing their space and shopping for furniture on top of their already busy schedules.

The Havenly platform reflects and solves for these common problems by connecting people to experienced interior designers and acting as a shopping portal for them to buy all their newly recommended furniture in one click. 

For just $170, you can get a full room redesign, nurtured by one-on-one communication with your designer and multiple rounds of ideas and revisions. For even less (as low as $19), you can get advice for quick design fixes and other small design dilemmas where you need an expert opinion. 

No matter where you are on the interior design experience spectrum — can't tell the difference between an ottoman and a pouf, or should be an honorary member of Bobby Berk's team — you'll get great use out of Havenly's services, without wasting time or money. 

Here's how Havenly works and what you can expect out of its interior design services.

If you're not sure which service you need or how to select the best designer for your style, Havenly walks you through it all.

After you take its Style Quiz and figure out your specific style, Havenly helps match you with designers who share the same aesthetic. You can also simply have them show you all the available designers on the site. With endless choice, however, can come confusion and paralysis, so I appreciated the bit of hand-holding. 

Factors like your own design knowledge, general budget, and the type of home you live in also come into play when narrowing down a designer, so that's another reason to start with the Style Quiz and go through the whole process of questions. 

Select a few designer moodboards you like, then learn more about their style and expertise by viewing their profile.

Lisa, for example, works primarily with Bohemian, Glam, and Transitional styles. You can see how many designs she has completed during her time at Havenly, areas she specializes in (e.g. merging styles for couples, using color to create particular moods), and her portfolio of work so you'll know what you're getting into. 

As your designer creates layouts and shopping lists, she'll source from more than 200 brands, retailers, and local artisans. They include favorites you already know, like West Elm, Anthropologie, and CB2, as well as relative newcomers like direct-to-consumer furniture company Article.
