Project cost estimator

What will your practice cost?

Two numbers shape your project: our interior design fee, and the construction budget you'll contract with a general contractor — we design; your GC builds. Model both below for instant, directional ranges — then we'll refine everything together.

Directional Southern California planning figures — not a quote. Nickerson Design is an interior design studio: the design fee is ours; construction is contracted separately with a general contractor you select (we can refer trusted partners). Equipment, permits, and site conditions can move the numbers; everything is confirmed together in feasibility.
