Renovation Assistance — Frequently Asked Questions
When should I hire an interior designer for a renovation?
Ideally, before architectural layouts and construction decisions are finalised. Early involvement allows us to improve circulation, maximise functionality, refine architectural details, and ensure that layouts, materials, lighting, and finishes are developed as one cohesive vision.
Can you recommend architects and contractors?
Yes. If you’re at the beginning of your project, we can recommend trusted architects, contractors, kitchen specialists, and artisan trades from our professional network, carefully selecting the team best suited to your renovation.
If you’ve already assembled your own team, we’re equally happy to collaborate with them. We regularly work alongside architects, contractors, kitchen designers, and specialist trades, helping refine layouts, guide material and finish selections, and ensure every design decision contributes to a cohesive and thoughtfully executed home.
Do you offer renovation project management?
Our role is to provide design leadership throughout the renovation, ensuring every design decision contributes to a cohesive, functional, and timeless home. To allow us to focus fully on the creative process, we collaborate with experienced architects, contractors, or builders who oversee project management, construction, scheduling, and technical execution.
Throughout the renovation, we remain closely involved—working alongside the project manager and specialist trades, conducting regular site visits, answering design questions, reviewing materials and details, and helping ensure the completed home faithfully reflects the approved design vision.
Can you help redesign the layout of my home?
Absolutely. Space planning is one of the foundations of every successful renovation. We carefully study how a home can better support your lifestyle, improve circulation, maximise natural light, and create a more intuitive flow while respecting the property’s architecture and character.
Do you design kitchens and bathrooms?
Yes. Kitchens and bathrooms are among the most important spaces in a home and require countless design decisions. We work closely with our clients and renovation team to refine layouts, select materials and finishes, develop lighting concepts, and guide the many details that ensure these spaces are both highly functional and beautifully integrated into the overall design.
Can you help preserve the character of a historic home?
Absolutely. Many of our projects involve Haussmannian apartments, period residences, and historic French homes. We believe the most successful renovations celebrate a property’s architectural heritage while thoughtfully adapting it to contemporary living.
Can you assist if we live abroad?
Yes. Many of our clients manage their renovation from overseas. Through detailed presentations, regular communication, site reports, and our dedicated Client Dashboard, we make it easy to review decisions and follow your project with confidence from anywhere in the world.
How long does a renovation usually take?
Every renovation is unique. Design typically takes several weeks, while construction timelines vary according to the scope and complexity of the project. Once we understand your goals, we’ll prepare a tailored schedule that reflects the specific requirements of your home.
Why do clients choose your Renovation Assistance service?
A successful renovation is the result of thousands of thoughtful decisions working together. Our role is to provide design leadership that brings clarity, cohesion, and confidence throughout the process, ensuring the finished home feels beautifully resolved, functions effortlessly, and stands the test of time.
