services

Three ways to engage

Choose the stage that fits where you are in your project. Each service works on its own or as part of a longer process.

Concept development service

from rm 480

Concept Development

We begin with your daily routines, then build the brief around them. The output is a mood-referenced direction, a draft layout, and a written narrative that explains how rooms relate to each other.

  • Two consultations & one site visit
  • Draft layout and spatial narrative
  • Presentation with one revision round
Enquire
Full design package with 3D visualisations

from rm 3,200

Full Design Package

Complete documentation for your apartment: floor plans, electrical and lighting layouts, material schedules, furniture specifications, and photoreal 3D views per room. Everything a contractor needs to read and price accurately.

  • Up to four rooms in base package
  • Photoreal 3D for each included room
  • Material and furniture schedules
Enquire
Procurement support and on-site coordination

from rm 1,650

Procurement & Coordination

Support through the buying and build phase. We shortlist suppliers, review samples, visit showrooms across Klang Valley, and walk the site weekly during active works — while keeping a shared change log.

  • Supplier shortlists and sample reviews
  • Weekly site walks during the build
  • Written communication and change log

how we work

What the process feels like

The brief comes first

Before anything is drawn, we spend time understanding how you move through your apartment. The brief shapes every decision that follows.

Everything in writing

Changes, decisions, and site notes are documented in a shared log. You and your contractor read the same version — nothing drifts in a phone call.

See surfaces before purchase

3D visualisations let you confirm material combinations and furniture placement before anything goes on order.

Decisions stay with you

We research and shortlist; you choose. The role of a designer is to narrow the field, not to override the person who lives there.

Klang Valley sourcing

We visit showrooms across PJ, Subang, Kepong, and the city centre — suppliers worth knowing, in places that take time to navigate alone.

Plain-language communication

No interior-design jargon unless it is useful. Site summaries and progress notes are written to be read, not filed.

questions

Before you get in touch

Can I use just one service, or do I need all three?
Each service stands alone. Some owners start with Concept Development, review the output, and then decide whether to continue. Others arrive with a brief in hand and want documentation only. If your build is already underway and you need someone on the ground, Procurement and Coordination works independently from the start.
How long does each service take?
Concept Development runs two to three weeks from your first session. A Full Design Package typically takes four to eight weeks depending on room count and feedback speed. Procurement and Coordination extends across the active build period, which varies by contractor. We can talk through your contractor's programme at the enquiry stage.
Do you take projects outside Bangsar?
Yes. Most of our work sits within the Klang Valley — Mont Kiara, Damansara, Ampang, Cheras, Subang Jaya, and central KL are all part of our regular working area. Apartments further afield are considered case by case. Get in touch and we can discuss whether the logistics work for both sides.
What does the RM 480 concept package include, and what is outside it?
The Concept Development fee covers two consultations, one site visit, and a presentation document: mood references, draft layout, and a written spatial narrative. One round of revisions is included. Construction drawings, 3D views, material schedules, and contractor communication fall under the Full Design Package.
Do you work with my existing contractor?
We work with whoever you appoint. If you are still searching, we can suggest names that have built from our documents before — but there are no referral arrangements and no obligation to use them. The Coordination service is designed to sit alongside any contractor, not to replace your relationship with them.
Is the 3D package suitable for sharing with a contractor?
Yes — that is one of its main purposes. The Full Design Package produces documentation with enough detail for a contractor to price and build from. The 3D views help you confirm material choices before purchase; the floor plans, schedules, and specifications communicate intent to the people doing the work.
