I will estimate the cost and supply an estimate, following an agreement and a deposit of 15% I will create a detailed proposal which can include -

1. Visit with you at your home or business to discuss the project in more detail - this meeting all about listening to your basic design criteria.
2. Measuring up - I have access to state of the art laser measuring equipment to provide 3d design renders but most often use the reliable tape measure or single point laser measurer.
3. Floor plans and rough sketch
4. Create an architectural plan

6. Interior design concepts and engineering design concepts

11. CAD drawings and plans
12. Telephone and email contact throughout to ensure you're aware of all the necessary details.
13. Meet with you for final presentation of detailed proposal, costings, and final quotation
14. Upon the approval of the designs and quotations, further deposits will be required in order to release drawings and commence the most often timely process of making the highly bespoke pieces.
15. Not every project will require all of the above lists to carry out the project I will use my years of experience to determine the level required which reflects the original estimation.

Prepare to invest in the design process - If you truly want something that meets your needs and desires

I take pride in not constraining myself to any singular style as it's my belief that in order to deliver an innovative piece of furniture, art or kitchen being recognised for a singular style limits the audience that I can design for. This is a key principle in the foundation of my company. Therefore its hard to have a set price for each and every project can vary significantly...
