how much does the interior design service cost?
We begin with a Design Discovery Session by visiting you at the project location and discussing your project requirements. Sometimes we can do a 'Pre Design Discovery Session' Q&A by email to get a basic outline idea of your project, and are able to provide a price after this before moving on to the in person Design Discovery Session. After this if you would like us to design and manage your entire project we are able to provide a price which is tailored and fair for you. Every brand and every interior is unique and our pricing is determined by this, taking factors such as your brief, your budget and your space into consideration to ensure we give you true value.
Do You Charge For Your First Meeting?
No, the initial 'Design Discovery Session' is free. If you are based outside of Liverpool though it is our policy to charge for our travel expenses. You will receive this money back if we go on to work together as we will deduct these costs from our project fees.

What Is Your Interior Design Style?
We aren't limited to any particular style. What we do have though is a design philosophy which is transferrable across all kinds of interiors.
We design your space by collaborating with you to understand your vision and objectives for the interior and then develop a brief, which we combine with our uniquely original design approach to provide a timeless solution which enhances your interior.
What makes our design approach unique is how, through our strategic and scientific process, we mix together what we call a "Method Design" philosophy (capturing the personality of your brand and mixing it with the character and location of your space, to create a grounded and timeless design) with forward thinking "Neuro Design" principles (which deeply looks at how the interior environment affects the wellbeing of the user through aspects such as light, colour, texture/materials, sound, psychology, visual & graphical qualities, emotion, biophilia, shape/pattern, layout, and more! With the goal being to create an experience where staff and customers feel happy, comfortable, and stimulated in their interior environment).

How Far Would You Travel For A Project?
We provide our interior design service anywhere in the UK. If you are outside the UK we may still be able to help you remotely but please contact us first about this and we'll see if this is possible.
Do You Work With Other Trade Professionals?
Yes, we use other trades where and when needed, and they are usually sourced and budgeted for with the rest of the FF&E. They will then come to site during the fit out phase.
How Involved In The Process Will I Need To Be?
Once we've met for the initial 'Design Discovery Session' where you tell us your vision and we have got the full detailed project brief from you, you don't need to do anything then until we meet for the concept design presentation. After this, we will only need your involvement when we are ordering and paying for any FF&E we have sourced for the project, as we don't handle client money. We keep you involved and informed anyway throughout the project, but if you want to have more involvement please tell us during the initial 'Design Discovery Session' to ensure a smooth working relationship.
What If I Am Unhappy With Your Designs?
The good thing for you is that this is not like 'Changing Rooms' where you come in to a surprise at the end of the project! We have a meeting once we've done our concept design to present our design and ideas for your interior, this is a chance for you to have some input on anything you don't like or would like to change/tweak. This is normal. We'll then go away to do those revisions before having a second meeting to present the revised concept. At this point the design should be how we both want it to be.
It's really unusual for any other changes or tweaks to be made at this stage, because they should've been brought up and addressed in the first meeting, but if there are please tell us and we'll repeat the revision and presentation process. After this point if the design for any reason is not satisfactory we will assume that we aren't able to help you or you're a time waster and will cancel our working relationship and involvement in your project. But don't worry, that is extremely rare and we're very confident in our ability to help you achieve your interior design goals!

Can You Manage The Entire Project?
Yes, we manage the entire project. Everything from the design, procurement, budgeting, hiring of trades or other specialists required, on site organisation, until the project is completed. We'll keep you involved and informed as much as you want along the way.
How Are Purchases For The Project Handled?
Our philosophy on this has always been 'fairness and transparency'. We do all the sourcing and budgeting, but then when it's time to make the purchases of the FF&E we will either email you what to get and from where, or more than likely we will be with you when you call or email to buy the products. This is because we don't handle clients money, it is a lot fairer and easier for the client to make the purchases from their own bank accounts, plus it's better for the client to see where they are spending their money when they're doing their accounts.
Do You Have A Speciality?
Yes, we specialise in hospitality interior design. We've been designing hospitality interiors for over a decade. Our interior design knowledge and skills are pretty transferrable though across other sectors so if you have a project in another sector outside of hospitality please still get in touch, and if we're not the right fit for your project we will try and guide you in the right direction for someone who may be.
Is There A Contract?
Yes, we're professionals. Once we've decided to work together and payment has been received we can email you our industry standard interior design contract. This contract outlines the designer and client roles and responsibilities, and is set up to protect both sides.
How Can An Interior Designer Save Me Money?
We're fully and professionally trained in interior interior design, with over a decade of experience. Our knowledge of the industry and the many different products and suppliers available means we can confidently source the correct FF&E, at the best prices, required to achieve what we have designed for you. Being a professional interior designer we also have access to designer discounts which we fully pass on to you so you can get more for your budget and save money at the same time too!
What Other Services Do You Offer Clients?
