I want to do interior design for my villa, what is the procedure?
In case you want to refurbish your existing villa or apartment of you are building new one, or you just bought a new apartment, the procedure is more or less the same. Our head of design with her design and technical team will meet you to discuss your preferences in regards to scope of work, space functionality requirements, life style, design style preferences, colors, type of materials, lighting and furniture type, style and of course your desired budget for bringing the design into reality. After initial meeting, we will start the design work: First is to prepare mood boards with selection of images, materials, colors and design details which should reflect your future space. Once we agree on the mood boards and you confirm this matches your taste. Next step are interior design drawings: furniture layout, partitions layout, ceiling layout. This basic layouts will enable the fit out work to start in case you want works to move ahead as fast as possible. Meanwhile the next stage of design will commence, which is 3D renderings. In this stage the design of your new space will start materializing. In this stage we will select all the finishes, decoration, furniture, lighting and all other elements of interior design of your new space. Once finished, it will show your new space to very last detail with full specifications of materials, furniture, lighting and other already provided.
Final stage is producing ID drawings good for construction, which will be used for fit out of your new space and ordering of the furniture.
