At AKID we pride ourselves on design innovation, drawing inspiration from around the globe. Our uncompromising dedication to quality means we are constantly researching to give our clients the very best the world has to offer. We detail and execute projects perfectly – no matter the scale, the budget or the site constraints.
Under the leadership of Studio Director Jessica Gombault, our process is driven by meticulous project management, clear communication, and a holistic understanding of each client’s vision.
First-class communication and exceptional service with our clients, trades, contractors and suppliers is essential to our business, this open communication has allowed us to establish and maintain long-standing relationships while removing stress points from the renovation process so our clients can embrace the journey and experience the transformation of their space.
The Project Stages
-
Contact our Studio Director today to discuss your project and the design process in more detail.
This is an opportunity for us to discuss your brief, learn what you are hoping to achieve, and to understand your ideas and expectations around timing and budget.
If your brief and our services align, we will arrange an initial consultation (either on-site or in our Potts Point studio) to meet with our Founder & Design Principal, Alexandra Kidd.
-
Following our consultation and meeting, we will create a customised Project Proposal for your consideration.
This will be tailored to your specific needs incorporating your brief, the Scope of Works, the proposed stages required to deliver your project from concept through construction to completion, as well as budget, our design fees and the terms and conditions of the contract.
-
A customised combination of the following stages will make up the steps of your design journey:
○ Concept Design
○ Approvals (e.g. Development Application, Section 4.55, Complying Development Certificate, Owners Corporation)
○ Design Development
○ Documentation
○ Tender & Contract
○ Construction Certificate
○ Construction & Inspection
-
The Decoration Process refers to Furnishings & Installation, which is also affectionately called ‘the fun stage’!
Often in conjunction with stages of the Design Process, we will work with you, and within your budget, to select or custom design furniture, furnishings, accessories and artwork to complement the interior architecture and design. We will ensure that you love each piece and detail as much as you do the bigger-picture design.
We will carry out quality control of all orders and implement perfect placement and final styling of all items.
