Drawn and detailed before anything is bought
Residential interiors on a fixed fee against a drawn scope. We take no commission from any supplier, which is the only reason we can recommend the cheaper one.
What we provide
Three ways in. The first is the one most people should take.
Full design
Measured survey, drawings, joinery details, finishes schedule and site supervision to completion. Fourteen to twenty weeks for a three-bedroom flat.
Drawings only
The same drawing set without supervision, for clients running their own contractor. About a third of the fee and the point at which most people discover what a scope actually contains.
One-room consultation
Three hours on site and a written note. ₹12,000, deducted in full from a later project fee. Most enquiries should start here rather than with a full brief.
We believe that a team makes any project better
Every project runs with a designer, a site architect and one carpenter’s foreman who stays from first cut to handover. The foreman is the reason the drawings survive contact with the site — a set handed to a new team at week eight comes back as somebody else’s interpretation of it. Eleven flats and two bungalows finished last year, all of them on the fee quoted at the start.
Simple way to make a room worth living in
A project runs in four stages with a written scope at the end of the second, and the fee is fixed against that scope rather than against the build cost. Anything added later is quoted as a variation before it is done, never after. We measure rather than trust the builder’s drawing, which is wrong on roughly every project we have taken on — usually by 40 to 90mm across a room.
Words from our customers
The fee did not move once. Two variations came up, both were quoted before the work started, and one of them we declined — which is the first time on any project I have run that declining was actually an option.
They talked us out of the more expensive floor. It took ten minutes and it saved about four lakh, and there is no version of a commission-based arrangement where that conversation happens.
I ran my own contractor off their drawing set and never once had to call them to interpret it. The joinery details at 1:10 are the reason the carpenter priced it without padding.
