Interior Design

Interior design contributes to the improvement of a building’s interior by creating a more aesthetically pleasing environment for the user.

It is critical to properly plan, research, and coordinate a project’s various finishes.

  • How functional is the Design?
  • How effective is the space utilization?

When working on interior design, it is critical to consider the arrangement and basic layout of the various spaces within a building, as well as fully comprehending some of the more technical issues such as window and door placement, acoustics, day lighting, and structure.

While partition walls can be used to introduce and create new spaces, load-bearing walls cannot be modified without consulting with project architect or structural engineer.

Good interior design necessitates the involvement of highly skilled professionals who assist in the creation of interior environments that are not only functional but also safe and adhere to local building codes and regulations. Aspects other than colour and furniture selection must be considered, such as basic knowledge of construction documents, occupancy requirements, and sustainable design principles. Other professionals, such as mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and structural engineers, must also be aware of and familiar with the management and coordination required. Our Commercial interior designers and Residential interior designers ensure the end user of the spaces we create is able to find the space livable, workable and pleasing to eyes due to its aesthetic appeal.

The combination of colours and furnishings creates a specific feeling for the person experiencing the space. This can result in a pleasant or an unpleasant experience. Choice of right colors and materials have the potential to make a space calm, cheerful & comfortable.  It can make a relatively small room appear larger. Our Interior Designers assist in selecting appropriate colours and materials to achieve desired ambience.

Our Interior Design Consultancy process has following phases:

  1. Programming (Understanding the client needs)
  2. Conceptualization (Schematic Design)
  3. Design Development (Refinement and finalization of spaces as per norms and execution thumb rules)
  4. Construction Documents (detailed drawings and documents for execution)
  5. Guidance during Construction (selection of contractor, Guidance and supervision)

Phase-1: Programming: Understanding the client needs

We listen to client very carefully and try to understand their needs with respect to budget, Lifestyle preferences, space requirements, wishes, likes, dislikes, and pain points. Design must truly serve what they really want and should reflect their personalities and lifestyle.

For getting it right, we have taken the following quote very seriously:

“Listen with curiosity. Speak with honesty. Act with integrity. The greatest problem with communication is we don’t listen to understand. We listen to reply. When we listen with curiosity, we don’t listen with the intent to reply. We listen for what’s behind the words.”― Roy T. Bennett, The Light in the Heart

Activities under this phase:

  • Initial consultation
  • Inspiration images –By Designer and by client as a starting point of references
  • Client questionnaire
  • Site inspection, measurement, photos
  • Design brief discussion and finalization
  • Letter of agreement

Based on design brief, we create layouts options and describe scheme with reference images. This stage may require few interactions based on feedback from client. Once finalized, client has a clear picture and understanding of what final product will look and feel like. This stage takes care of what can be achieved within client’s budget.

Activities and deliverables under this phase:

  • Space planning layout
  • Accessibility and circulation in spaces
  • Mood board
  • 3D renders or Conceptual sketches

Process of refining the solutions and adding details to the approved preliminary design. This is the part where the art and science come in together where we combine creative strategies and technical details.

Activities and deliverables under this phase:

  1. Floor plan, Reflected Ceiling Plan (RCP)
  2. Interior elevations, Sections
  3. Furniture layout with actual size and their location(setting out)
  4. List of materials and equipment
  5. Fabrication and cabinetry intent details
  6. Lighting, power, auxiliary, smoke detectors, speakers, cameras, and other ceiling hosted devices
  7. Selection of FF & E (Furniture, fixture, and equipment)
  8. Internal doors design and hardware
  9. 3D renders

We provide drawings and documents which are like a ‘Guide’ to contractors so they can execute the work flawlessly. Very clear and specific with the items in drawings to avoid confusion during construction and the building permit application.

We coordinate with the allied professionals to review plans to ensure that design will not conflict with the existing structure.

Activities and deliverables under this phase:

  1. Detailed floor plans, Detailed Reflected Ceiling Plan (RCP)
  2. Detailed interior elevations, Detailed sections
  3. Electrical, auxiliary, and mechanical plans
  4. Plumbing layout / elevations (if applicable)
  5. FF&E schedules
  6. Internal door designs and hardware
  7. Material and finishes schedules
  8. Cabinetry intent drawings, custom furniture, and fabrication details for fixed furniture
  9. Specifications
  10. Blow-up details and special instructions
  11. Bill of Quantities (BOQ)and specifications

During construction, we advise our client on selection of contractors, material selection, workmanship, and quality of construction. On-site visits aid in determining whether construction progress is in sync with the construction documents to ensure desired design outcome. We also advise on whether the material and workmanship are of acceptable quality and how it can be improved.

Activities and deliverables under this phase:

  1. Advice on contractors’ selection and negotiations
  2. Periodic site visits-supervision, taking progress photos, writing progress reports
  3. Reviewing contractor’s shop drawings
  4. Preparing punch list
