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
Remote design consultancy
My core 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. Or you may require product sourcing service to find the right mirror or sofa for your living space.
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 coordinate design implementation for you as an additional service. 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
Prepare quotations and organise site visits by specialist trades and oversee implementation.
For large projects with existing contractor on site I can prepare schedule of works, project briefing and be in regular contact with them.
