Process

A thoughtful process. From possibility to place.

Five stages, each with a clear question, clear inputs from you and a defined output. Coordination and site stages apply only where they are part of the agreed scope.

Discover

We listen to how the property will be used, what matters, the preferred investment range and the timeline.

From you: Your brief, plans or photographs, priorities and constraints.

Output: A clear brief and a proposed scope.

Concept

We test layouts, mood directions, furniture positioning and spatial priorities.

From you: Feedback on the options and who uses each space.

Output: An agreed layout and design direction.

Design

We develop agreed plans, finish selections, relevant details and 3D visualisations.

From you: Sample and finish approvals.

Output: Drawings, schedules and visuals for the agreed scope.

Coordinate

Approved information moves into vendor and site coordination, according to the agreed scope.

From you: Timely decisions when changes come up.

Output: Coordination notes, change records and progress updates.

Handover

We review the agreed deliverables, outstanding items and the completed environment.

From you: A walkthrough together.

Output: A snag list and handover information where applicable.

Changes, payments and timelines

Changes

A change after approval is written down with its effect on cost and time and approved before work proceeds.

Payments

Payment stages are set out in the written proposal and linked to stages of work. We do not publish standard rates.

Timelines

We share a realistic schedule after the brief, approvals and lead times are known. No duration is promised before then.

Questions about scope and fees

How are design fees calculated?

Fees depend on project size, complexity, deliverables, site conditions and execution responsibilities. A written proposal should explain the fee basis.

Can the project be budget-led?

Design options can be evaluated against an agreed investment range, although material prices and vendor quotations must be confirmed at the time.

Do you prepare BOQs?

BOQ and specification support is among the proposed services. Agree the measurement basis, item inclusions, pricing assumptions and revision process.

What is the difference between design and execution?

Design defines the proposed result through plans, specifications and decisions. Execution involves procurement, fabrication, site coordination and installation within an agreed contract.

What if the scope changes?

Changes should be recorded with the effect on drawings, procurement, timing and cost before approval and execution.

Will I receive a timeline?

A programme can be agreed based on scope, approvals, site access and vendor lead times. Do not promise dates before assessing those factors.
