Before we begin
How do we start a project?+
Send a short description of your space, location and goals. We arrange an initial conversation, then prepare a written scope and fee proposal before you decide whether to commission us.
What budget should I allow?+
Budgets vary with the size, condition and scope of a space. We separate professional fees, construction, furniture and contingency so you can see the whole picture. A consultation is useful before setting a final budget.
How long does the design take?+
A single-room design usually needs six to eight weeks after the survey. Whole-home work and planning applications take longer. We agree a realistic programme and decision dates at the outset.
Can you work with furniture I already own?+
Yes. We record the pieces you want to keep and incorporate them into the layout and palette. Reusing well-made furniture often makes a room more personal and reduces unnecessary replacement.
Do you offer remote consultations?+
We offer video consultations for concept advice and design review. A complete construction package normally requires a measured survey and local site coordination, which we discuss before accepting the commission.
Do you order furniture or take payment online?+
This template demonstrates a design enquiry workflow. It does not take payments or place orders. For a commissioned project, procurement responsibilities and payment terms are agreed in a separate written appointment.
