Is interior design a service I really need?
Not every project needs the same level of interior design support, but for a new home or major renovation it can save a considerable amount of time and help avoid costly changes during construction.
There are hundreds of decisions to make, and sometimes the amount of choice can feel overwhelming. Our job is to manage that process for you, from sourcing materials and developing colour schemes to selecting sanitaryware, flooring, ironmongery, light fittings and switches. We bring everything together into clear schedules and specifications so your contractor knows exactly what has been selected and where it goes.
We also think about the practical details behind those choices. A floating bath, for example, may require additional structural support, while particular fittings can affect plumbing or electrical positions. Considering these details early makes life much easier on site and helps the construction run more smoothly.
Can you help us choose all the finishes and details for our home?
Yes. We can help source and coordinate flooring, tiles, wall finishes, sanitaryware, internal doors, ironmongery, lighting and joinery, as well as developing colour and material schemes. Everything is brought together into detailed finishes schedules so you and your contractor have a clear record of what has been selected and where it goes.
When should we start thinking about the interior design?
Ideally, during the design and technical stages. Interior decisions can affect electrical layouts, plumbing, structure and other technical details, so making them early gives us time to coordinate everything properly before construction progresses.
Can you help us create a consistent look throughout the house?
Yes. We can develop the overall look and feel with you, considering colours, materials, finishes and details across the whole property. This creates a cohesive interior and avoids having to make individual decisions room by room during the build.
Can you help with kitchens, bathrooms and bespoke joinery?
Yes. We can help establish the overall layouts and design direction and work alongside expert kitchen, bathroom and joinery suppliers where specialist input is required. We then coordinate their information with the wider architectural and technical design.
Do we have to use your full interior design service?
No. The level of support can be tailored to your project, from helping establish the overall design direction through to a comprehensive package of finishes, specifications and technical information for construction.
