WHAT DOES AN INTERIOR DESIGN PROJECT COST?

Designing your dream home is exciting, but without a clear budget, costs can quickly spiral out of control. Whether you're renovating, furnishing, or building from scratch, knowing what to expect and how to plan your budget is essential.

BUDGETING TIPS FOR YOUR PROJECT

  • Set Priorities

    Decide which elements matter most—whether it’s a luxury kitchen, a designer bathroom, or a custom-built living space. Clear priorities help allocate your budget efficiently and maximize impact.

  • Get Multiple Quotes

    Comparing at least two quotes for services and materials ensures you get the best value. It helps you understand market rates, avoid overpaying, and make informed decisions.

  • Create a Detailed Cost Estimate

    A clear breakdown of all costs—from materials to labor—helps you track spending and avoid surprises. This keeps your project financially on track from start to finish.

  • Plan for the Unexpected

    Unexpected costs can arise from structural changes, material delays, or last-minute upgrades. Setting aside 10-15% of your budget as a buffer helps you stay on schedule and within budget.

  • Take Advantage of Discounts

    Through our supplier partnerships, we secure exclusive discounts on furniture, fabrics, and materials—helping you access high-quality designs at better prices.

WHAT INFLUENCES THE COST OF YOUR PROJECT?

  • The scale of your project has a major impact on costs. A large-scale renovation or a luxury villa design requires more resources, materials, and labor compared to a small apartment makeover or a single-room redesign. The complexity of the project also plays a role—open floor plans, custom architectural details, and structural modifications add to the overall cost.

  • The choice of materials can significantly affect your budget. High-end materials like natural stone, solid wood, and custom-designed fixtures enhance quality and aesthetics but come at a premium. On the other hand, cost-effective alternatives such as engineered wood, laminate, and quartz composites can help manage costs while still achieving a sophisticated look.

  • Customization adds exclusivity and functionality to a space, but it comes with a price. Bespoke built-in furniture is tailored specifically to your home, ensuring a perfect fit and a cohesive design. This applies to custom cabinetry, shelving, wardrobes, and kitchen units, which often require skilled craftsmanship and specialized installation.

  • The level of expertise involved in your project influences the overall cost. Highly skilled artisans, custom fabricators, and specialized craftsmen bring a level of detail and quality that mass-produced solutions cannot match. However, high-end workmanship, intricate detailing, and custom-built elements require a larger budget.
