OUR PROCESS

How we work

from first conversation to final detail.

A considered, transparent process. We believe great design is the result of clear conversation, careful planning, and quiet attention. Here is what working with us looks like, from the first email to the final reveal.

01

Discovery

Duration

1 Week

WHAT HAPPENS

We begin with a conversation. Either a video call or a meeting at our studio in Dubai. We listen first, to the space, to the brief, to how you live or work. We ask the right questions and resist offering answers too quickly.

INCLUDED

  • Discovery call (free, 30 min)
  • Site visit (if local)
  • Brief gathering
  • Reference sharing
  • Initial scope outline

02

Concept

Duration

1 - 2 Weeks

WHAT HAPPENS

A direction takes shape. Mood boards, palette explorations, and references that translate the feeling of the brief into a visual language. This is where instinct meets intention, and where you tell us what resonates.

INCLUDED

  • Mood board presentation
  • Color palette
  • Style direction
  • Reference imagery
  • First conceptual sketches

03

Design

Duration

2 - 4 Weeks

WHAT HAPPENS

Concept becomes plan. We develop space planning, material schedules, furniture layouts, and detail design. Every surface earns its place. We share progress in stages so the design grows with you, not for you.

INCLUDED

  • Space planning & layouts
  • Material & finish boards
  • Furniture specifications
  • Lighting plan
  • Detail drawings

04

Visualization

Duration

3 - 7 Days

WHAT HAPPENS

Photorealistic 3D renders so you can stand in the space before it exists. We refine, iterate, and share until what is on the screen matches what is in your mind.

INCLUDED

  • Photorealistic interior renders
  • Multiple views per scope
  • High-resolution images
  • Material detail close-ups
  • Revisions until aligned

05

Delivery

Duration

1 Week

WHAT HAPPENS

A complete design package: floor plans, sections, elevations, material specifications, supplier lists, and the final presentation document. Print-ready, contractor-ready, beautifully presented. We remain available for questions through execution.

INCLUDED

  • Final presentation document
  • Floor plans & elevations
  • Specification packs
  • Supplier introductions
  • Execution support

WHAT TO EXPECT

A studio that listens
before it draws.

Direct contact

You speak with the founder, not a team of intermediaries. Every project is led personally.

Clear scheduling

Flexible scheduling shaped around your timeline. We book key milestones in advance so nothing surprises you.

Considered pace

We work with a small number of clients each year, by choice. This protects the quality of every engagement.

Honest dialogue

If something is not right, we say so. If a brief shifts, we adapt. The work depends on the conversation being open.

FREQUENTLY ASKED

Quick answers.

How long does a typical project take?

Anywhere from 2 weeks for a focused service to 8+ weeks for a full design package. We give a clear timeline at the end of discovery.

Do you work outside Dubai or the UAE?

Yes, we work internationally for select projects. Most coordination happens online, with site visits as needed.

Can I book just a consultation?

Yes. The 30-minute discovery call is always free. A 1-hour design consultation is bookable for focused advice.

What does it cost?

Every project is quoted individually after discovery. We share a detailed estimate within 48 hours of the first call.

Do you handle execution / construction?

We focus on design. We provide complete documentation and supplier introductions, and remain available throughout execution.
