Doorstep Design: in-home framing consultations from Chelsea, NYC

A designer and samples, in your own space.

Doorstep Design is an in-home design consultation. Not everyone can come to us, whether because of time or any other reason, so a Chelsea Frames designer comes to you, and the framing choices are made on-site, in your own space.

We start by learning about your project virtually. We then book an appointment and come to your space with samples. From that consultation we can create mockups to help you visualize the finished piece. Doorstep Design is a paid consultation, and the fee is agreed with you beforehand, depending on the project.

This page covers the design consultation itself. For the pickup, delivery and installation of a finished piece, see Delivery, Installation and Pickup.
A guided decision, made in your own space.
In-home visit.
A designer visits your home or office with frame and matting samples, so you can see in real time how they look with your art and in your environment. Office visits are arranged through our corporate division, C2 Corporate.
Material selection.
We compare options together, on the spot, until we get it right and you are pleased with the end result.
Follow-through.
Once you approve, the project is like any other. Our trusted partners, who handle your treasures with the same respect we do, bring the art to our studio, and the framing is completed on our premises. We then oversee delivery and installation to your specifications, if you need them. Like all of our work, it comes back to you with a lifetime guarantee.
Let’s design in your space.
Send us your details and a photo of the art, and book a Doorstep Design consultation.
