Picture this: a cosy conversation over coffee or tea, as we delve into the heart of your home and your dreams for its transformation. Our 2-hour in-depth initial consultation is more than just a meeting; it's the beginning of a partnership built on trust, creativity, and shared vision. Together, we'll uncover the hidden potential within your space, setting the stage for a journey filled with inspiration and possibility.

What You Receive:

As the seeds of inspiration take root, we dive into the creative stage of your project, exploring possibilities, challenging concepts, and developing a considered design plan.

Phase 3: Transform: Implementation

Now, your design adventure moves from paper to reality as the physical work to transform your home takes place. You'll see more of us as we visit the site regularly to oversee the design implementation, manage the procurement process, and ensure that the design intent is executed flawlessly. From the buzz of construction to the thrill of design installations, every moment is infused with energy and excitement, culminating in a space that is as beautiful as it is functional.

With meticulous attention to detail, we ensure that every aspect of your project is perfect, from professional photography to the resolution of any lingering issues. With a comprehensive project binder in hand and a smile on your face, you step into your newly transformed home, ready to begin the next chapter of your life.
