Description
As commercial interior designers, we design business premises. We work with small and large-scale and very diverse tasks: this month we create a project for a cozy family coffee shop, and next month — an ergonomic office for an IT company. Business customers are ready to pay for the development of design projects and 3D visualization. Because they want the interior like by clients and match the company’s style.
To work with commercial projects, a designer needs special knowledge. Selection of wear-resistant materials and equipment, and what Nema, County, and National Government requirements are. And how to manage a large team of contractors.
Our team of commercial interior designers offers a full range of services to create unique and functional commercial spaces. We specialize in commercial interior design projects in Kenya and can help you turn your ideas into reality.
We offer interior design concept development for commercial spaces, including detailed drawings and specifications of materials and furniture required for the project. Our team is ready to provide you with quality work, as well as consultations and advice on all matters related to the design of commercial spaces.
Repair and construction works
Qualified, and most importantly, our proven construction teams will take you by the hand through all stages of construction, making the renovation process not painful and chaotic, but clear, structured, and, with an impeccable result, as in your 3D visualizations.
Commercial interior designers play a crucial role in repair and construction works, ensuring functionality, aesthetics, and brand alignment.
They bridge the gap between architectural plans and the final, usable space. In renovations, designers assess existing conditions, identifying areas for improvement and proposing solutions that meet current needs and building codes.
We select appropriate materials and finishes, considering durability, maintenance, and visual appeal. For new constructions, designers collaborate with architects and contractors, optimizing space planning, traffic flow, and accessibility.
We develop detailed drawings and specifications for lighting, electrical layouts, and HVAC integration, ensuring a cohesive and efficient design. Throughout the process, designers manage budgets, timelines, and contractor coordination.
Ultimately, we transform spaces, enhancing user experience, reflecting brand identity, and maximizing the value of the commercial property.
Peculiarities of the profession
A residential and commercial interior designer is a versatile specialist who can work independently on a project at all its stages. Our professional responsibilities include:
- inspection of the site, coordination of the future design with the customer;
- assessment of the possibility of redevelopment;
- design development – from redevelopment to selection of materials;
- 3D visualization of design, making adjustments at the client’s request;
- author’s supervision of work on site;
- assistance in selecting and purchasing materials (often the designer uses personal discounts and brings clients to partner stores, which allows the customer to save money);
- handover of the object, making adjustments if defects are discovered during acceptance.
Residential and commercial interior designers work with technical documentation, coordinate and legalize redevelopments in various authorities, and control the quality of the design project. Many specialists cooperate with construction materials stores, repair crews, and large contractors. They ensure minimal client involvement in solving minor current issues, taking on management and control functions themselves.
What do we as commercial interior designers do?
The typical work algorithm of an interior designer looks like this:
- An interior designer’s day begins early in the morning with a review of the project you are already working on.
- If you start a new project, you should first request all the initial information. Usually, these are BTI plans, measurements, and addresses. It would be best to go to the site – this is important.
- After visiting the site, together with the customer, a technical assignment (TA) is drawn up. There is a universal template, but new input may appear during the conversation.
- It is necessary to ask correctly about the budget because the cost of materials varies and the designer needs to know how much the customer is willing to spend on repairs to select and work within a certain price segment.
- Now it’s time for design. Its stages: concept – project – layout, or visualization:
- The “Concept” stage is a certain emotion, implying the relationship between the designer and the customer. The contract must specify the variants of solutions. Then planning decisions are made and references (auxiliary images) are selected to approve the interior style. As soon as the concept is approved, the next stage begins – the “Project”.
- The “Project” stage is a detailed development of the entire project. The result is specifications and lists of finishing works, which can be given to builders to determine the construction estimate or to make a tender.
- Further, the designer is obliged to carry out the author’s supervision, which is specified in a separate agreement.
