What you get
The paperwork that
The paperwork that
makes it real
Design is a stack of decisions. These are the documents those decisions live in.
Deliverable 02
Materials board
Physical samples of your key finishes where stock allows. Seeing oak next to your tapware beats imagining it.
Deliverable 03
Shopping list
Every product with supplier and code, plus a rough quantity guide so you buy once and buy right.
The process
How this service
How this service
runs, step by step
One session does the work of weeks of swatch anxiety. Here is how it runs.
Step 01
Pre-visit homework
You send photos and a rough idea of what you like. We arrive with candidate palettes already shortlisted, not a blank page.
Step 02
The session
Two hours in the actual rooms, testing samples against your light, floors and fixed finishes. Decisions get made on the spot.
Step 03
Spec sheet
Within two days you get the written schedule: colours, codes, materials, suppliers and quantities.
Step 04
Follow-up call
A fifteen-minute call a week later, once you have lived with the big boards. Adjustments are part of the service.
Client feedback
We spent a year arguing about white paint. Ninety minutes with Sarah and it was sorted, and she was right about the hallway.

Questions
Asked about
Asked about
colour and materials consultations
Something else? +61 7 3862 4189 gets you a person, not a menu.
Do you only specify expensive paints?
No. We specify what the surface needs. Hallways and rentals get hard-wearing mid-range products, the feature wall gets the good tin. The spec sheet notes which is which.
Can you match colours to existing furniture?
That is half the job. The sofa, the floor and the benchtop are the anchors, and the palette gets built around them. Bring the rug to the session if it can travel.
What if we hate the palette a week later?
The follow-up call exists for exactly that. We adjust within the session fee, and because nothing is painted yet, changes cost a phone call rather than a re-paint.
