WORKING PROCESS

[STEP-1]

Brief

DISCOVER

Every project begins with understanding our clients’ vision, goals and operational requirements. Through close collaboration and detailed site analysis - particularly for refurbishment projects - we identify opportunities and intelligent design solutions that enhance guest experience, improve staff efficiency and establish a strong foundation for the project.

[STEP-2]

Concept

IMAGINE

This is where creativity, functionality and aesthetics converge. Guided by strategic thinking and practical design logic, ideas are transformed into concepts that bring the vision established during the discovery phase to life.

[STEP-3]

Schematic Design

Illustrate

This stage transforms concepts into visual reality through three-dimensional representations, layouts and curated material selections. Furniture, finishes and key design elements are presented in sufficient detail to establish clear direction and enable accurate high-level budgeting.

[STEP-4]

Design Development

DEVELOP

Every aspect of the project is refined, documented and integrated - from layouts and detailing to finishes, furnishings and equipment. Coordination with consultants ensures seamless integration and alignment across all project disciplines.

[Step-5]

DOCS

Comprehensive tender and construction documentation is prepared across all project elements, including layouts, detailing, finishes, lighting, specifications and schedules, ensuring clarity, coordination and seamless project execution.

[Step-6]
