Working With Us

Step 1.

Initial Consultation.

An informal session where we can understand the form and function of your home or space, identifying essential focus areas and an opportunity to share your aspirations for the project.

A chance to gain clarity on desired outcomes, budget, timeframe and your appetite for creative risk taking.

An outline proposal will follow detailing our interpretation of the brief and our design fees.

Step 2.

Concept Design.

The moment to discuss and explore design requirements, space use and desired aesthetics for interior architecture and design.

Spatial planning sketches and drawings will be shown alongside colour concepts to allow you to visualise possibilities, structural variations and proposed finishes including furniture.

Priding ourselves on client relationships, this is when open and honest discussions take place to get the best outcomes.

Step 3.

Design Development.

The moment when interior design comes to fruition.

Following approval of the concept design, design development encompasses fundamentals of the final design from product selection to essential detail of fixtures, material samples and curated furniture to ensure you feel and experience the vision for your home.

All relevant information is prepared, the team and contractors assembled where required, and a fully itemised breakdown of costs provided in line with the budget.

Step 4.
