Our Process
The way we work.
Unhurried, in order, with one team from beginning to end.
The Journey
01
Good rooms are never in a hurry.
Our process trades speed at the start for certainty at the end: we listen longer, draw more completely, and build only what has been fully resolved. Most projects move through the eight steps below; not every house needs all of them.
Step by Step
02
01
Discovery
We visit the site, walk the light, and listen. No drawings yet — only questions.
- Key focus
- The site, the light, and how you live
- Deliverable
- Project brief & budget frame
02
Concept
Plans, elevations and full-scale details, drawn once and resolved before anything is cut.
- Key focus
- Proportion, plan and daylight
- Deliverable
- Concept drawings & plans
03
3D Visualization
Quiet, accurate visualisations in the room’s real light — what you approve is what we build.
- Key focus
- Seeing it true before it is built
- Deliverable
- 3D views & walkthrough
04
Materials
Timber, stone, cane and finish selected by hand, together — samples on site, in the actual light.
- Key focus
- Honest material, chosen slowly
- Deliverable
- Material board & estimate
05
Execution
Everything is built in our own workshop by hands we know, checked against the drawing daily.
- Key focus
- Craft and daily accountability
- Deliverable
- Workshop & site build
06
Styling
Furniture placed, textiles chosen, art hung — lightly, and with room left for the life that will fill it.
- Key focus
- The last five percent
- Deliverable
- Styled, finished rooms
07
Handover
We install, finish in place, and walk the house with you room by room before handing over the keys.
- Key focus
- Completeness, room by room
- Deliverable
- Keys & care guide
08
Support
We return after the first monsoon, and remain available for the life of the house. Wood moves; we stay with it.
- Key focus
- The years after handover
- Deliverable
- Ongoing studio support
Timeline
03
How long it takes.
A full residence typically takes twelve to eighteen months from first conversation to handover; interiors alone, six to ten. We give you an honest programme at the start — and hold to it by resolving everything before we build.
