How we checked, and what this is
This is a source-verified comparison, not a hands-on review. We read each company's current pricing and process pages on 24 October 2026 and compared what they say. We did not order a design, speak to a designer, or judge the quality of any finished room, so we cannot tell you whose designs are better. Where a statement comes from the company itself, we say so. Prices change often and several sites show a banner discount, so confirm everything on the company's site before you pay.

All figures above are the companies' own statements as of 24 October 2026. "Not stated" means the page we read did not say, not that the service does not offer it.
How online interior design actually works
You send photos and measurements of one room, a designer or small team proposes a plan, and you revise it. The finished product is usually a design package and a shopping list, not a furnished room. You still buy the furniture, wait for delivery, and put it together.
This is why the brief matters. A designer can only work from the photos, dimensions and preferences you give. Our guide to writing an interior design brief shows how to put these together, and it is worth doing before you pay for any service.
Havenly
What it says it offers. Havenly's pricing page lists two paid options. Online design starts at $159 per room, shown with $199 crossed out. In-person design starts at $499, with $699 crossed out. Both include a designer matched to your style, a finished design plan, 3D renderings, a custom floor plan, revisions "until it feels like yours", a shopping list and member pricing at hundreds of brands. In-person adds a home visit from the designer. Havenly says first concepts typically arrive in 3 to 14 days and promises a Happiness Guarantee. It also lists an AI interior design tool.
- Good for: one room, a lower budget and a quick turnaround.
- Watch for: the page does not say how many designers or concepts you get or how many revisions are included. Ask before you pay. Whether a discount is temporary or ongoing is not stated either.
Decorilla
What it says it offers. Decorilla's core packages are Bronze $599, Silver $859 and Gold $1,099, with a "$120 off" promotion shown at the time we checked ($479, $739 and $979). Each says two designers submit concepts, with more experienced designers at higher tiers. Platinum starts from $1,980 and includes project management, and hourly services run from $119 to $500 an hour. Choosing multiple rooms saves 10 percent.
| Package | Regular price | With $120 off | Designer level |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bronze | $599 | $479 | Experienced |
| Silver | $859 | $739 | Greatly experienced |
| Gold | $1,099 | $979 | Industry leading |
Its process page says you typically receive two initial concepts from two designers within a week. After you choose a designer, they revise the concept as often as needed, and you also get one revision of the 3D renderings. Deliverables are a realistic 3D rendering, a shopping list with discounts and an implementation guide. Sourcing usually takes one to three weeks after you choose. CAD drawings for contractor review are offered only through Platinum or custom packages, and projects inactive for 90 days cannot be refunded and may be considered closed.
- Good for: a larger or more technical project, or a buyer who wants to compare two designers before committing.
- Watch for: the higher price, the one-revision limit on 3D renderings, and the 90-day inactivity rule on refunds. Furniture is not included in the package price.
Spacejoy
What it says it offers. Spacejoy prices per room in three tiers: Delight at $199 (list $399) with one concept and a professional designer, Bliss at $399 (list $599) with two concepts and a senior designer, and Euphoria at $599 (list $799) with two concepts and a senior designer. Every plan includes a designer, 3D designs and a shoppable list, and furniture is optional. First designs arrive within 10 business days, and Euphoria can be as fast as 7. Revisions are included, but the page does not say how many. A banner showed 40 percent off at the time we checked. Spacejoy offers a full refund within 48 hours of ordering if you ordered by mistake and have not started your design.
- Good for: a fixed price per room with clear tier names, and a single room that needs a fast first look.
- Watch for: a short window for refunds, and the number of revisions is not stated. The banner discount has no end date on the page.
What each one costs, compared
Compare like for like. A $199 design with one concept is not the same product as a $599 design with two concepts from senior designers. Add the cost of the furniture, delivery and installation, which none of these packages includes, and the cost of any professional help for measuring, because designers rely on your measurements. Our room measuring apps comparison can help with that.
What to check before you pay
- What happens if you dislike the first concept. Decorilla says it will pair you with another designer or provide more proposals. Check the same for any service.
- How many revisions are included, and whether 3D images count separately.
- Who buys the furniture. Most of these services give you a list; you place the orders. Check whether you are expected to buy from certain brands and how trade or member pricing works.
- Refund and inactivity terms, in writing, before you send photos of your home.
- Pay by card. In 2022 the online design company Modsy stopped operating its design service, and press reports said some customers were left waiting for refunds. A card gives you a way to dispute a charge if a company cannot deliver.
- Privacy. You will upload photos of the inside of your home. Read what the company does with them.
When a human designer is worth it, and when an AI tool is enough
A human designer is worth paying for when the problem is judgement: a whole room to coordinate, a layout that does not work, a mix of existing furniture and new pieces, or a project with a contractor. An AI tool is enough when you want quick style ideas on a photo, and our guides to what AI room redesign can and cannot do and free AI interior design tools explain the limits. Neither replaces a measured plan.
The two also combine well. When your designer's shopping list arrives, you can check the main pieces in your own room photo before ordering. A visualizer such as DecorViz places a product image from any store into your photo, so you can compare the sofa and rug from the list in your real light. It is a visual check, not a measurement. Our DecorViz review covers what it does and where it falls short.
