Services
I provide a flexible interior design service which can include some or all of the following:
Design consultancy for one room or whole house
Colour Consultancy
Spatial and layout design
Lighting design
Bespoke joinery design
Product sourcing and trade discounts
Project Management and implementation
My basic service is to provide you with a design package that will enable you to facilitate and implement design yourself. This can be adapted to suit your needs and size of the project. For example, you may be going through a house renovation and require a full design service or you may simply wish to seek advice on cohesive colour scheme for your walls. Alternatively, you may require full design and implementation service project managed by me using trusted builders and trades people. Usually I offer this service for complete house or apartment renovation.
Step 1
Initial phone consultation about your project. This should last around 20 minutes and if it is something, I can help you with we can then arrange a consultation meeting either in person or remotely. Prior to the meeting I will ask you to complete a client questionnaire which will form the basis of the design brief.
Step 2
Consultation meeting. This can last up to 2 hours and it will allow us to discuss your requirements, aspirations, timescales and budget. I will also conduct a site survey by taking measurements and photographs of the space. I will follow up with an email outlining the design brief, the scope of work and fee proposal.
Step 3
Design Style Direction. I will collate a board of inspirational images based on the brief. To visualise the scheme, I will develop concept ideas for colour scheme, wall and floor finishes, lighting, furniture and soft furnishings. Once we have established a design style direction, I will start working on the design in more detail
Step 4
Detailed Design. Once the initial concept and design direction is agreed I will conduct research to find the best furnishings and finishes within your budget. I will then carry out spatial planning on how best to utilise your space and produce floor plans, elevations, sketches, mood board and physical samples of materials and finishes. Finally, I will provide you with a fully itemised sourcing list which will complete the design pack giving you all you will need to implement the design yourself.
Step 5
Depending on the size and nature of the project, I can project manage design implementation from start to finish. We can discuss this in more detail, but usually it would involve some or all of the following:
Purchase and organise delivery of your sourced items and obtain trade discounts where possible
Prepare quotations and organise site visits by specialist trades and oversee implementation.
Project management and regular site visits using trusted builders and trades people.
