Residential Interiors, Full Design - How it Works
At Design@Studio17, our residential home design service is crafted to bring your unique vision to life. We understand that the essence of effective design hinges upon the ability to ensure that each room and space within your home fulfils its intended purpose, whether that involves providing a sanctuary for relaxation, a hub for hosting, a productive workspace, or a harmonious blend of these functions. Our commitment to you, is to understand your individual needs, ensuring that the design we create is not just a reflection of your present lifestyle but also a timeless investment for the years to come.
​
We also understand that there is a great deal of trust that is required to ensure that you are confident that you have the right partnership to help achieve you ambitions, so if you would like to discuss your project further, please book in a complimentary discovery call, for those considering a full service scheme this is extended to an hour, so you can get to know us a little better before you make a commitment; you can book here. Our interior design studio is based in Manchester, but we work nationwide and internationally.

The Design Brief
This is a critical part of all projects, its key we understand your desires and needs; during this time together we will discuss your requirements and ambitions for the space, but it also gives us an opportunity to get to know each other better, this helps us ensure every aspect of your project is carefully considered so we create a design that is perfect for you.
​
These are conducted in your home, depending on the scheme will take anything from an hour or two, it is always great to see the rest of your home, it helps us identify the potential thread that will connect each room, no matter how subtle, and please don't worry about tidying, its so much better for us to see it as you live most days so we can help identify you the opportunities to make life a little more effortless for you. You make tea and I promise to bring the biscuits.
Concept Design
Following the design brief, we will craft a project concept that encompasses mood boards, meticulously curated colour palettes and thoughtfully designed layout plans. Our aim is to present you with a vision that is not only aligned with your desires but that also fills you with delight. Should there need to be any adjustments made we will work through those together to ensure we have a cohesive vision, the concept design is the foundation of the project and your happiness is our priority.
Develop
Following approval of the concept, we then get to work on pulling together the full scheme and we will draw up the final designs for you. Dependent on what package you have selected, this will include final layout drawings, mood boards, agreed furniture, fittings and colour schemes and an expected final cost. It may also include designs for bespoke furniture, lighting designs, external space and if we are completing the install, a programme of works to allow us to manage through the project to completion.
Presentation
We will then meet and we will present back the final scheme, there is still an opportunity for you to make changes at this point, and two design revisions are included. We will bring samples, elevations and 3D models for bespoke items or where applicable so you can both see and almost feel what it will be like at the end of the renovation. Please be reassured that we will consider every detail to ensure your design enhances your lives for years to come.
Following agreement of the final scheme, the final timelines will be agreed and then we start the phase behind the scenes that starts to bring your dreams to life.
Installation
For all bespoke packages we recommend that the install is completed by the design team ensuring that all design elements are executed to perfection and the overall look is achieved. Once all the major construction or design work has been completed, this is where the details really come together and your dreams become a reality; we will co-ordinate the install as well as completing the finer details of dressing bookcases, hanging art work and completing all the finishing touches that make the design a home.
On Going
Our support continues after installation day, we will be there to support you for many months after your project completion. We will plan some follow up up consultations, and whilst we are confident that you will be delighted with your new space, we want you to know we are committed to ensuring that you love your new space, and these allow us to ensure everything is as we anticipated. Additionally, we will also ensure that you have everything you need in one place so should you need any warranties or care guides they are easily at hand.
