We recommend creating a list of questions to ask, your mood boards, furniture, lighting and materials selections, sketches, photos and inspiration images, although it doesn't need to. You can also keep it simple with some prepared questions and take notes throughout.

We highly encourage our clients to take an active part in the design process and project realization. It helps us get a better understanding of your preferences, expectations, and tastes and also keeps you informed about the progress of the project.

That's OK. Setting a budget is an essential part of any design project, and we are here to support and advise you through this process. With our thorough knowledge of products, finishing materials, and renovation works, we can help you set an estimated budget that aligns with your functional and design requirements.

As professional interior designers, we have established partnerships with numerous retailers, distributors, and manufacturers of furniture items, lighting, finishing materials, decorations, and more. These collaborations allow us to secure better rates, which we can then pass on to you as our client. We can help you reduce your budget by sharing our special trade discounts and save between 10-40% off the recommended retail price.

Once we finalize the design project, we will create a detailed schedule for you that includes product names, descriptions, prices, finishes, and contact details for where to buy them.

If you choose to place orders through us, you will be eligible for the discounts we have secured through our partnerships.

We’ll bring all finished samples and show them to you, together with the floor plan and design concept presentation. If you’d like to see larger item samples, such as furniture or lighting, etc., we can arrange visits to suppliers’ showrooms to see either samples or the product itself.

Many people think that the role of an interior designer is to decorate a space. However, interior designers work in both space planning and aesthetics. When looking at a space, they try to find out how to improve the functionality and space planning of a space, not just the aesthetics. They can provide valuable insight into the flow and ergonomics of a home, ensuring that every space works right and suits the client's needs and expectations.

Building designers work on the built structure and the exterior of the building, so they may not be as attentive to the aesthetic and function of the interior. Even if they have in-house interior designers, they don't consider creating a design tailored to your unique lifestyle, taste, and preferences.

Another thing is that a builder pushes you to follow their selection of items he’s made allowances for, such as taps, tiles, flooring and cabinetry. If you don’t like the items that fit within the allocated allowance, you will potentially face a variation that will add significant additional cost.

So, an interior designer can be your saviour.
An interior designer will double-check the floor plans you've got from your builder and make sure every space and piece of joinery works right and suits your needs and expectations, all specific things you'd like to have in the home are detailed in the building plans. An interior designer will place all furniture items on the plan to ensure everything you want and need will fit the space, prepare a sample mood board and 3D renders with selected finishing materials, so you can visualize your future home, make changes if you need to before the house is built, and avoid disappointments and costly mistakes in the end.

Building a new house is a big investment.
And Yes, engaging an interior designer can be considered an extra expense. But look at this from a different perspective – take this as an opportunity to save time and money, to have a professional who can back you up and help you get the house you will be proud of, and add significant value to your new property.
