What’s your interior design process?
Our work is rooted in an exploration and generation of a vocabulary that is informed by program, process, the innovative use of material and an emphasis on spatial relationships. We use the analysis and integration of given constraints – like site conditions, technical as well as material properties, economic limits and program requirements – as an opportunity for creativity, emphasizing the unique character of each project.
Which interior design styles can you cater for?
We combine a distinctively modernist European approach with an American sense of innovation and curiosity.
What do you love most about your job?
Creating spaces that are a singular expression of the particular site and the owner's requirements that create joy and surpass the expectation of the client.
What inspired you to start your own business?
We started nottoscale in 2006 with the objective to create a design driven studio that explores the intersection between site, space, materiality and building technology to create sustainable and unique works of architecture.
Why should our clients choose you?
Our unique background of being fully immersed in diverse cultural settings and mindsets enables us to approach projects with a fresh perspective in order to create a unique, innovative and singular design for our clients. Our modest size allows us to be nimble and responsive to the shifting demands of each project while remaining focused on delivering an exceptional end product.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
We can work online / remotely but would recommend to be on site at strategic points throughout the process. We always recommend to have an initial site / client meeting in order to get a better feel for both. Design meetings can be done remotely but we highly recommend to have a pre-construction meeting with the client and contractor to review all relevant documents and parameters. Depending on the complexity of the project a couple of meetings during construction should suffice with one last one to inspect the final work.
Architectural + Interior Design Services
We offer Architectural and Interior Design Services for the entire construction process from the initial collection and assessment of all relevant project parameters to the design, construction documents and specifications all the way to construction administration.
