The Details on By Design Furniture
Look Good:
A By Design associate will visit your home to provide a space and color consultation, free of charge. For a fee (about $60 for five pieces), you can have your furniture delivered and assembled.
The Extras:
There's another By Design in Norcross and an outlet shop directly behind that. You'll get more interior design advice, though, by sticking to the Midtown store.
