Yes. Daniel Montero offers private design consultation; single-room concept and specification; whole-home creative direction; furniture, lighting, art, textile, and object sourcing; and spatial editing with presentation-ready visual studies. Write design@gildedge.com with the room type, location, project stage, desired scope, and timeline.
The Design Journal is a series of fictional before-and-after concept studies by Daniel Montero. Each story begins with an empty room or a disclosed earlier study; an AI-assisted finished image shows design direction; and the schedule names visible furniture, lighting, art, textiles, and fittings. Official maker links identify products where known. Dimensioned stories state concept dimensions, placement, and fit notes — not surveyed measurements of a client property.
No. The published journal rooms are fictional design studies with AI-assisted visualizations, not photographs of completed client commissions. Locations are story settings, not addresses of client homes. A private project begins with the client’s actual brief, site information, measurements, and a written scope.
Not through Edge Design Works as a storefront. Product cards and schedules use official maker pages as the source of product identity. A rendered product form is illustrative — it does not prove exact configuration, scale, availability, price, endorsement, or image rights. Edge Design Works does not claim every linked item is in stock or available in every shown finish. Confirm those details with the maker before purchase.
You can preview the workspace publicly. Image generation is available only to invited, enabled accounts in the pilot. Generation access requires registration, an invitation, and an enabled account. You can explore empty rooms and build a room-specific source list from curated references.
No. AI output can change geometry, materials, scale, views, fixtures, and product details. Compare any generated or edited study with the original room, and verify physical measurements and product specifications, before purchasing, construction, or publication. Human review is required.
No. The public workspace is a preview, not a private consulting engagement. Its visual studies are not permit drawings or construction documents. Private consulting is arranged by inquiry and scoped in writing; technical drawings and construction coordination require a separately agreed scope and appropriate licensed professionals where required.
Edge Design Works is based in New York and takes residential work in select high-value US markets by inquiry. Concept work often begins remotely from photos and measurements; site visits are quoted when needed. Design Journal rooms set in other places are design studies, not branch offices.
Design and creative direction is billed at $300 per hour and scoped with a written fee limit before work begins. Design fees are separate from furnishings and maker purchases. See Engagement for structure, or write design@gildedge.com with your room type, location, stage, scope, and timeline.
Edge Design Works is a Gilded Edge Group LLC venture based in New York.
