INTERIOR DESIGN

The Interior Space provides a total service which includes establishing the brief, creating a design concept, development of the design ready for tender, detailing during construction and management of the project to completion. Our work specialty is resort, residential and high rise design. We take our clients' vision and make it a reality. We are choreographers of space!

FF&E PRODUCT CATALOGUE

The FF&E collections compliment the nature of the architecture, materials and landscape. All packages, inspired by contemporary Indonesia, include specific inventory, furniture layouts and will be bespoke designed to compliment each individual villa and its' signature luxury lifestyle. Owners are invited to first select their preference from the two inspirational interior schemes, light (lumière maison) or dark (beauté noire).

Each villa will be a masterpiece of casual island elegance, meticulously crafted for you.

THE BRIEF

From the initial client consultation I detail a design brief which provides a summary of all aspects of the work to be covered during the project. The design style & preference for design direction and budget is also established.

CONCEPT DESIGN

Once a project is accepted the work begins with development of the concept. I prepare an image/mood board that depicts my understanding of the design approach, prepare sketches or 3D models as appropriate, floor plans, furniture layouts, elevations, colour palette & sampling for clients to approve.

DESIGN DEVELOPMENT

During this phase, with the design concept approved, the designer can begin to detail plans & specifications in preparation for the tender and construction process. Here I prepare very detailed specifications and drawings. During design development I work closely with the specialist consultants, such as architects, engineers, construction managers & landscape designers to ensure all parts of my design work correlates flawlessly with the entire project. In the case of commercial work it is common to also team with marketing groups to assist with preparation of the sales material.

DETAILING DURING CONSTRUCTION

This is the stage where I work on site with the construction managers to inspect work, respond to RFI enquiries and ensure the design is being correctly followed by the construction team. Here I also check trade construction drawings and inspect the manufacture of products in factories.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT

Allows me to provide a service to run the FF & E procurement on behalf of my clients - either private homes or large commer- cial fit outs, such as resorts & hotels. I design, source, cost & oversee the installation of all items to be included. I plan, co-ordinate and team with suppliers & staff to ensure every detail is perfect to completion. This work begins usually during construction and takes over on site once the building has been completed.
