Services

Design intent, carried all the way to installation.

Consultation, specification, procurement, coordination, logistics and installation, from one team that is accountable for the finished room.

  1. 01

    Design consultation

    Working sessions in the showroom or on site: direction, selections and layout, with your drawings on the table.

  2. 02

    Material specification

    Finish schedules, product data and quantities that your builder can price and order from.

  3. 03

    Procurement

    Ordering against confirmed quantities, lot control, and lead times tracked against your schedule.

  4. 04

    Technical coordination

    Substrate, waterproofing, transitions, edges and fabrication, agreed with the trades before work begins.

  5. 05

    Logistics

    Staged deliveries, access planning and storage, so materials arrive when and where they are needed.

  6. 06

    Installation

    Tile, stone and slab installation by crews we trust, managed through to the final walk-through.

01Why it matters

Most rooms go wrong between the drawing and the site. That gap is where we work.

A design survives budgeting, lead times, substitutions and installation only if someone is responsible for it at every step. We take that responsibility from the first consultation to the final walk-through.

02Process

Discover, design, engineer, procure, execute.

Every project moves through the same five stages. Larger projects spend longer in each; none skips one.

    Plans, inspiration, objectives and budget.

    • Review drawings and site conditions
    • Understand how the space will be used
    • Set budget ranges early
    • Agree who decides what
  2. 02

    Design

    Material selection, layouts, coordination and detailing.

    • Curated selections, sampled in context
    • Layouts and setting-out drawings
    • Edge, niche and transition details
    • Coordination with architect and designer
  3. 03

    Engineer

    Technical review, quantities, transitions, fabrication and installation planning.

    • Substrate and flatness requirements
    • Takeoffs with realistic overage
    • Fabrication and cut plans

  4. 04

    Procure

    Sourcing, ordering, scheduling and logistics.

  5. 05

    Execute

03Who we work with

Homeowners, and the professionals who build for them.

We work directly with homeowners, and alongside architects, interior designers, builders and developers. Whoever leads the project, we fit into the team and keep the surfaces moving.
