1. At what stage should I get you involved in my renovation or build?

The earlier, the better. Ideally, engage an interior professional during the concept phase, so we can influence layout, structural changes, joinery, finishes, lighting, and more. Early involvement helps avoid costly changes down the track.

2. What services do you offer?

Services typically include:

  • Space planning and layout design

  • Consent documentation

  • Kitchen design

  • Interior architectural detailing

  • Joinery and cabinetry design

  • Material and finish selection

  • Lighting and electrical plans

  • Furniture, fixtures & equipment (FF&E) curation

  • Lounge styling

  • Window Treatement (drapes/blinds) specification

  • Coordination with architects, builders, and consultants

4. How much will it cost?

Fees can vary based on project size and complexity. Our services are often quoted as:

  • A fixed design fee

  • A percentage of the total project cost for Project Management

  • An hourly rate for specific work - some clients just want us for a couple of hours!

We’ll provide a clear fee proposal after discussing your brief and scope.

5. Do you work with builders, or do I need to find one?

We are a design build studio with our own Project Manager, builders and subcontractors. We also offer support during the construction phase to ensure the design is executed correctly.

6. Can you help with council consents?

We can take care of all the documentation that is required to obtain your building consent or council exemption

7. What if I change my mind during the process?

Design is collaborative, and we expect refinements. Major changes during or after documentation may impact timelines and fees. We’ll always discuss these transparently and have an amendments exclusion that would apply if we go beyond the initial time quoted for.

8. How do we get started?

We start with an initial consultation. This is in person or virtual if you are located outside of Auckland, to discuss your needs, budget, and vision. From there, we provide a detailed scope, fee proposal, and project roadmap or cost estimate to move to the design phase if we are a good fit!
