Space Planning & Consultation

Low-commitment consultations that map layouts, budgets, and timelines before you embark on full renovation or property purchase decisions.

Service description

We analyse your current or prospective space, uncover constraints, and provide preliminary layouts plus realistic budgets so you can decide with confidence before committing to a full build.

Ideal for homeowners comparing renovation options, buyers assessing potential, or businesses planning refreshes—our reports focus on feasibility, not sales pressure. If you later engage us for the project, your consultation fee is credited toward the contract.

Scope handled end-to-end

Everything you need to evaluate possibilities, budgets, and next steps.

  • Initial Site Visit – On-site review of layout, light, ventilation, and constraints.
  • Space Analysis – Measurements, zoning ideas, and structural considerations.
  • Needs Assessment – Lifestyle, team size, or operational requirements.
  • Preliminary Floor Plans – Two to three layout options with furniture placement.
  • Budget Feasibility – Cost ranges for different scope levels and finishes.
  • Design Direction – Style references, material suggestions, and palette ideas.
  • Timeline Projection – Expected durations for design, approvals, and build.
  • Permit Guidance – Identification of approvals or consultants required.
  • Written Summary – Documentation of findings, recommendations, and next steps.
  • Follow-up Q&A – One round of clarifications after presentation.

Frequently asked questions

Clear expectations before you invest in a full renovation.

Is the consultation a sales pitch? It’s advisory.

We deliver floor plans, budgets, and recommendations whether or not you hire us afterward.

Can I use the plans elsewhere? Yes.

The preliminary layouts belong to you. Detailed construction drawings require a separate design engagement.

How accurate are the budgets? Within 15–20%.

They’re ideal for planning; final quotes depend on detailed measurements and material selections.

Do you consult on prospective purchases? Definitely.

We join property viewings to estimate renovation costs before you decide to buy.

Can you review another designer’s proposal? Yes.

Bring their drawings and quotation—we’ll provide an honest second opinion on feasibility and pricing.
