Full Service Design
Our signature service. Let us take care of you from start to finish - one team guiding you the whole way through from initial conversation through to handover.
A bespoke and complete solution where your project is designed, managed and executed by us and our team.
Regardless of whether your project is a complete design & build or a redecoration, we have the expertise to take you from initial ideas through to installation. We’ll complete design drawings, materials selection, lighting and furnishings selections ready for your approval before we hold your hand through the building (if applicable) while arranging logistics for all materials and furnishings. A truly turn-key experience.
*In addition to this Full Service Design, we are now offering a ‘Concept Only’ service:
The perfect solution for those who need a bit more involvement from us than the One-Off Consultations, but don’t quite need the full service Concept to Completion. Designed to give you the ‘blueprint’ of ideas upfront so you can execute yourself in stages when ready.
-
This services begins with a Consultation ($1,500) to discuss your needs and pain points. Following that meeting, we put together a custom proposal for design fees to execute on your scope of work.
Once paperwork is signed off, we schedule the design works into our calendar. Design is anywhere from a 8-16 week process depending on the scale of the project and our availability.
-
– A comprehensive 2-hour onsite consultation with Sarah (and Tim for Design & Build projects);
– A deep dive into the current functionality of the space and desired improvements or review of existing plans/drawings;
– A walk through our process to outline how our projects run;
– Full proposal outlining scope of work & detailed notes recapping recommendations;
– Follow up meeting to review the proposal and discuss the next steps. -
Get the most out of this consultation:
1. Organise Yourself - collect inspiration images from magazines, social media or a Pinterest board.
2. Think Numbers - Consider your timing and budget, this will give us a framework to work within.
3. Make a list - Consider what you are requiring help with, compile a list of ‘must- haves’ and a ‘wish list’.
4. Think about the way you live and the unique functional requirements for your family & lifestyle.
One-Off Consultation (in-person)
Let’s get your decisions made! At this in-person appointment, Sarah will answers those burning design questions and point you in the right direction with expert advice & guidance. You’ll walk away with clarity and an action plan!
Sometimes you just need someone to ‘bounce’ some ideas off to help move forward. Someone who isn’t a well meaning friend or family member and someone who isn’t emotionally involved in your home. You need a professional who can give you their unbiased opinion and provide tips for change which you may have never considered.
Perfect for both decoration projects or renovation and building work. Some clients have used this service to review existing architectural plans for an upcoming new build or renovation project. It’s your time with Sarah so gather your questions & use the time how you wish.
-
– You’re a self-implementor
– You want to feel confident before making key design decisions;
– You need tailored recommendations on the best suppliers to visit & what to look out for when shopping;
– You want an expert second opinion or advice – e.g. redecorating, reviewing drawings or plans, material selection.“I know how costly it can be to make design mistakes. Choosing inappropriate finishes or furniture that don’t work well together is more costly than getting it right the first time with a professional designer. I help my clients create timeless cohesive interiors, removing their stress or self-doubt” – Sarah
