Process

Design process is project specific and will be customized to suit each client’s requirements and project needs. 

Meet & Inspire

During the initial meeting  we get  to know you, how you live,  how you want your overall space to function and feel and what you want to achieve with your project. We will discuss layout and material options based on preliminary design ideas and inspiration, in addition to outlining  the process and  tailoring deliverables.

Preliminary Design

Starting with a good foundation is key. At this point we will have a lot of ideas and creative solutions that will bring the design to life. We coordinate meetings, organize workshops, site visits. In addition to the documentation of existing drawings, site measurements and conditions.
We meet with the main consultant, contractors and engineers while reviewing their initial drawings. We  make  amendments to fix any poor design on an early stage. We also prepare potential space planning options and concept design layouts -  AutoCAD. Together we establish project budget & Design Concept

Based on the client’s reviews, comments and approval of Preliminary design, we proceed to provide visualization for all areas and deliver visual presentation:
• Color Scheme & Finishes

Final Detailed Drawings and Shop Drawings

Based on the Client’s written approval of the Interior Design
Development phase, we prepare construction documents and specification packages. Throughout this phase, the Interior Designer shall coordinate with the Project Team to ensure a successful completion. During this stage, and based on updated final AutoCAD drawing the interior designer provides the final documentation that incorporates into the Architect’s package for construction purposes:
• MEP Drawings
• Furnishing Plan
• Interior & Exterior Elevations

Budget Estimation- BOQ

Includes all the pricing of the project from Furniture, Accessories,
Curtains, and Rugs to Decorative Lighting etc... This stage is done after the Client confirms all the designs. Along with the client, we will Choose Suppliers and Manufacturers and confirm the Final Quotations.

Procurement

We have very strong relation and partnerships with a big pool of
suppliers, which allows us to move quickly and swiftly through the installation process. This helps in delivering the right product at the right place and the right time. We use our directory of contacts with hundreds of local and international manufacturers and suppliers to find the best materials, finishes, fixtures, hardware, furniture, lighting, and accessories to suit each project.

Supervision and Follow-up

• We extensively make Site visits to observe the progress and the
quality of the work.
• Review Contractor’s submittals such as shop drawings, product data, and samples to the submittals that are related to the items within the scope of interior Designer’s services.
• Provide final checklist of all Interior items and finishes. Our Design Director Rayya Shaar personally perform final cross check with the client.
