Early on, a designer told us, “Getting an $8k chair for $4k isn’t material, we do $75k jobs.” Not sure their customer would agree, but it does explain their fee.\n\nMost of us know our taste, but scrolling dozens of websites is a waste of time. Niche sourcing channels are jealously guarded by professional dealers, and the best inventory is difficult to find.\n\n# ✅ Rastro’s Solution\n\nRastro is your personal interior designer, with no up-front costs.\n\n1.
