West Design brings together creative design, visual merchandising, installation experience, and project coordination in one practical, hands-on process. We do more than make a space look good — we think about how people move through it, what they notice first, how the brand is communicated, and how each detail supports the overall experience.
With a background in retail, commercial spaces, displays, signage, seasonal décor, and museum-style storytelling, West Design understands how to create spaces that are both beautiful and functional. We can help shape the concept, source the right pieces, coordinate vendors, manage details, and bring the final vision to life.
What makes West Design different is our ability to see the full picture while still caring about the small details — from concept to completion.

To discuss a potential project with West Design, use the contact form on our site to share details about your space, timeline, goals, and project location.

Every project is different, so we begin with a complimentary phone call to learn more about you, your space and your needs. From there, we schedule a $250 site visit to explore ideas, assess the project and determine the appropriate scope. This non-refundable fee is applied toward your estimated project total, and you are welcome to keep and implement any ideas discussed during the visit. Because pricing varies based on project type and complexity, we provide a clear, transparent quote after the initial consultation, with no hidden costs.

Working with West Design is collaborative, creative and detail-focused from concept to completion. We combine design strategy, visual expertise and project management to create polished, functional spaces tailored to your goals. Visit our Our Design Approach page to learn more about our process.

Every project has it’s own timeline. We tailor start and finish times based on each clients preferred deadline, taking into consideration availability of materials, store hours, and installation time.
-
Yes, we do work with subcontractors. We are able to provide the bulk of the work ourselves, but we always want you to have the best option for any work provided. This means if we aren’t experts at a particular part of the project, we make sure we source contractors that are efficient and have the most expertise in their field. Although some days we like to think we can be electricians, we most definitely are not!
-
The short answer: everywhere! We keep up with design trends and are constantly reviewing new concepts and new designs. Inspiration is truly everywhere and our brains are always cataloging and downloading everything we see. Inspiration often comes from our clients; you have a vision as well and we love bringing that vision to life!
