What’s your interior design process?
We 1st discuss and get the full scope of work from our client and then present then with a details quote for the work required. Once the client has approved the quote and paid the required deposit, we then start the project.
Which interior design styles can you cater for?
Our company covers a wide range for design style and we do not focus on just 1 style. We listen to the need of what the client is wanting.
What do you love most about your job?
We are strong in both the creative and technical aspect of designing something unique for each client.
What inspired you to start your own business?
My love for architecture and at the time there wasn't a company that offered a 1 stop shop from design to the installation phase of a project.
Why should our clients choose you?
I go the extra mile for my client and give them the legal, technical and design work that will be approved by required bodies.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
We offer our client both an online or in-person consultation service or both, based on what they are most comfortable with.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
We do most of our pre consultations on line and only interact face-to-face with client when needed for there protection and ours.
