In this episode of The Business of Beautiful Spaces, I’m joined by Gabriela Eisenhart of Silo Studios to discuss how interior designers can confidently add construction management to their offerings—and boost profitability in the process. Gabriela shares how designers can start integrating construction-related services, improve communication with contractors and clients, and take more control over project outcomes.

We cover everything from procurement strategies and vendor coordination to managing timelines, budgets, and liability. Gabriela also walks us through the first steps for designers who want to expand into construction or renovation oversight without feeling overwhelmed. If you're ready to increase your revenue and create a smoother process for your clients, this conversation is a must-listen.
