INTERIOR DESIGN & EXECUTION PROCESS

Getting a dream space is not just about furnishing your home, but it is also about how the whole place is optimized and how the overall design and color of the space make you feel.

If you think such a design is important to you, and you decide to hire a professional to do that for you, it is imperative to understand how much your designer’s design philosophy resonates with your own.

To check this, you can go through our Portfolio/Recent Work to decide about the compatibility and if it seems compatible, you can go ahead and get in touch with us for further discussion.

While there are a number of ways you can get connected to us, we highly recommend you start by filling up a small ‘ENQUIRY FORM’ on our website to start a formal dialogue regarding your query.

This form will guide you to fill up the exact information that is needed, in case you don’t know where to start.

Once you fill-up the form, you will immediately receive an email for your next action plan with the contact details of the relevant person, along with some important links to our website such as our portfolio, services, and useful blogs.

AGENDA

The initial consultation is about understanding you and your functional and design requirement. We try to clearly understand our scope of work, what is already provided and what clients wish to bring themselves. On the basis of requirement and inclusion-exclusion details, we provide a block estimate for you to get an initial idea about financials.

OPTIONS FOR MEETING

Studio Meeting: We highly recommend you to take out some time and meet us in our studio, given all the sample and technological support available for your better understanding.

On-Site Meeting: The second option is to meet at the site or your place if you can’t manage to come down to our studio. We can come to you at your convenient time and place for a small visit charge.

MEETING CHECKLIST FOR CLIENTS

Make sure you have checked our online portfolio. We have taken a lot of effort to make our best work available at your fingertips to decide about our design compatibility with yours.

Note down your functional requirement as clearly as possible.

Keep your layout and video/pictures of the property ready for specific discussions.

Try to research and know your design style. To help you in this, we have published a blog on design styles that you can go through. 

Decide how much you want to spend on your interiors. This will help your designer provide different solutions to suit your budget and present accurate estimates.

As per your functional and design requirements discussed in the meeting, your designer arrives at a specific per square feet cost to calculate your block estimate. This per square feet cost is calculated on the basis of the designer’s own level of expertise, previous experience, and the prevailing market rates at that time. Once this rate per square feet is arrived at, it is multiplied by the total carpet area of your space to get the block estimate.

Block estimate is calculated on the basis of - 

Your functional and design requirements, and

The carpet area of the space.

At this stage, if you decide to go ahead with us for your interior design and execution, you can book us by paying Rs. 50,000/- or 5% of the estimate whichever is higher.

SITE VISIT

DONE BY: US

Site visit marks the initiation of execution starting with a detailed site survey and measurements. This data is used for the most accurate space planning and 3D modeling.

LAYOUT OPTIONS

DONE BY: US

We will provide suitable options for furniture placement and layout finalization.

Once the layout is finalized, you will need to complete 10% of the Block Estimate to move ahead with 3D Design Finalisation.

3D DESIGN & MATERIAL SELECTION

DONE BY: US

We begin with the design process with mood boards, elevations, and 3D modeling. Material selection is done along the process. Once approved, the construction drawings are prepared for final approval of the entire design process.

At this stage, we can provide the estimated timeline for project completion.

On the basis of finalized design, materials, and quantities, the final Billing of Quantities (BOQ) is provided and approved at this stage.

BOQ includes the description of all the materials, their quantities, particulars, rates, and final amount for each work head in detail for the entire scope of work.

It also mentions the necessary terms and conditions such as inclusion and exclusion lists, payment terms, and other such details.

Once the BOQ is approved, you will need to release 50% of the BOQ amount. The previous 10% payment made against the block estimate is aligned as per the finalized BOQ.

PROCUREMENTS AND ON-SITE EXECUTION

DONE BY: US

All kinds of civil work, framing, wiring, concealed works, fixed furniture carcass installations, ducting, etc. is completed, which takes up a considerable amount of effort and supervision. You will see a lot of procurements of construction material at this stage.

INSTALLATIONS AND FINISHING

DONE BY: US

At this stage, final finishing work such as lamination/overlays and final installation of external fixtures and furniture is done. This stage usually takes a little longer than the previous stage, as it involves numerous meticulous jobs with various expensive materials that are procured for final finishing and installations. You will need to keep a little patience to see visible progress at this crucial time.

PAINTING & CLEANING

DONE BY: US

Once the final materials have been overplayed and installed, your site is ready for painting. We have to make sure every other finishing job, however small, is complete before the painting begins. Once again this will take some time and test your patience for good. Once the painting is complete, the entire site is cleaned thoroughly along with the final debris removal from the site.

FURNISHING

DONE BY: US

We understand your excitement, as the work draws closer for you to move in and start enjoying the space. This stage is crucial as these final and expensive installations often require skilled men to do the job. Yet again, we advise you to be patient, as we want nothing to go wrong with these final furnishings that are going to be the first focal points of your interiors. We help you with the final setup of your furniture, soft furnishing, and decor to get that cohesive and picture-perfect dream space. This might take a few more days to set up everything depending upon the scale of work and assuming all the material has arrived already.

HANDOVER

DONE BY: US

A final handover checklist is made. All the installations and work is inspected again for proper functioning and if any discrepancy is found, it is resolved before the final handover.
