Phase I: Establishment

Questionnaire · Photographs & Measurements · Introductory Call · Mood Board · Layout

Once your room design is booked, you receive our questionnaire and a short guide to photographing and measuring the space. We then meet by video call to understand how the room is used, what items you would like to keep, and what you love. A mood board follows, setting the palette, pattern and character of the room, and then a to-scale furniture layout, each approved by you before any sourcing begins.

Phase II: Design

Sourcing · 3D Modelling · Specification · One Round of Revisions

We build your room in a 3D modelling software to its exact dimensions and furnish it to scale with the pieces, lighting, fabrics and finishes we propose, so that you can see the room as a whole before a single item is ordered. Your design is then sent to you to review, and your comments are folded into one round of revisions.

Final Design Files · Shopping List · Paint, Wallpaper & Curtain Specifications

Your finished design is delivered to you digitally, complete and ready to implement. You may then order each piece directly, and your painter, decorator and curtain maker may work straight from our specifications.
