This is then presented as a physical presentation box and mood board. Upon approval, final finishes are documented into a ‘Fixtures, Fittings and Finishes’ schedule for you to refer to and to present to the builder/trades working on your project.

Here’s what to expect;

• Specification of hard finishes based on clients specific requirements ie; flooring, carpet, tiles, vanities, basins, sinks, tapware, feature lighting, interior/exterior paint colours, internal/external wall finishes, joinery/cabinetry finishes/colours/profiles, handles, hardware, benchtops, appliances etc
