Design Process

No matter the project, the process follows a similar pattern

Whether it’s a whole home scheme or a smaller single project, we’ll take the time to carefully understand your desires and wishes with the greatest level of attention. We’re only happy when you are.

 

Our Process

1. Consultation

I work to understand more about you and your needs for your home.

Every project starts with a phone call so I can learn more about what you’re looking for. We’ll chat about what you need and what your expectations are.

If I can help with your project, we’ll meet in person where possible, or online, to chat through things in more detail. I’ll take time to listen to what you need, as well as understand how you feel about your home and how you use it.

This helps me to make suggestions that align with your priorities, and I can give you an initial idea of the cost.

 

2. Concepts

I help you to visualise the space with a clear look and feel.

We’ll look through samples, drawings, and products to get a sense of what will work. From there, we’ll make our selections together.

This is informal, fun, and relaxed. All your thoughts and ideas will feed into the design, and the whole process is collaborative so that we can shape your vision into something you feel confident about.

 

3. Detailed Specification

I nail down the costings so that we can proceed with your project.

With the decorative schemes decided, the full cost is calculated. Every item is listed out, and when you’re happy with the spec and estimate, you’ll pay a deposit and then we’ll move forward!

Detailed plans are created so you’re fully aware of everything, with no hidden surprises.

 

4. Project Coordination

I make it happen in as smooth a way as possible.

Everything is decided, and plans are submitted to my team of trusted suppliers, makers, and craftspeople. I’ll let you know the delivery dates and the timescale so you know when to expect the grand reveal of your new space.

I oversee every area to make sure things go smoothly, and I’ll be there in your home with fitters to ensure the installation of items is as it should be.
