Our Working Process
-
01
Concept Review
This is where the creative bit comes in. How can we make this look different but still stylish and timeless? Anything new on the market to help achieve this? Then loads of scribbles and sketches and see if it pleases the eye. If so, then its on to the next phase.
-
02
Full Concept Report
Now we add our light layers to the ID renderings to assist them in selling the concept to the Client. Probably the most difficult phase as we have to get across to the Client how they can expect the end result to look like and many people cannot visualize so it has to be good.
-
03
Lighting Calculations
Here we prove that our ideas work and if we need to bounce up levels or can reduce levels to save money yet still maintain the atmosphere. If as an Interior designer or architect, you want your ideas checked by professionals to ensure your ideas work then we are pleased to do that as an independent consultant. Gives you peace of mind!

04
Documenting the design
We follow the RIBA stages for our documentation and includes reflected ceiling plans, low-level layouts, control looping, typical details, elevations and sections.
-
05
On-site technical Support
Arguably, the best part of the job. Does it look like we envisaged? Were the correct lights delivered with the correct specs? Do we need to tweak things because we were not told that a massive bank of Palm trees have been planted or the color of the guest rooms have changed from light to dark? [ouch] There are so many last minute changes wee need to check.
