Question 1

How does working with an interior designer online work?

Accepted Answer

The online format lets us create a complete design project regardless of your location. We start by getting to know each other and discussing your wishes, lifestyle, budget and timeline in detail. Then we analyse the starting data and develop the layout solutions, the interior concept, 3D visualizations and a full set of working drawings. All meetings happen over video call and you receive the project materials digitally — you approve decisions at every stage, so the process stays transparent and comfortable.

Question 2

How much does an interior design project cost per square metre?

Accepted Answer

The cost depends on the area of the space, the scope of the project, the complexity of the layout and the level of detail — on average from $15 to $45 per m². After getting to know the space and discussing your goals, I prepare an individual proposal with a fixed price and no hidden charges.

Question 3

How long does it take to develop a design project?

Accepted Answer

On average, developing a project takes from 2 to 12 weeks. The exact timeline depends on the area, the complexity of the project, the number of rooms and how quickly decisions are approved. Before we start, we agree a schedule with stages and deadlines.

Question 4

What's included in a full design project?

Accepted Answer

A full design project includes everything needed to build the interior: layout solutions, the interior concept, selection of materials and colours, 3D visualizations, a set of working drawings, electrical/lighting/plumbing plans, wall elevations, finish-material schedules and specifications for furniture, lighting, plumbing and décor, plus recommendations for the build. This set lets the builders carry out the work precisely and without extra questions.

Question 5

Can I order a design project remotely if I'm in another city or country?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The whole process runs online, so geography doesn't limit the ability to create a quality project — every stage, from discussing the concept to handing over the working documentation, is done remotely. The design also takes into account your region's market, and the availability of materials, furniture and construction methods where you are.

Question 6

How does the measurement happen if the designer is in another city or country?

Accepted Answer

There are several options. If the space is in a city where my partners work, a professional takes the measurements. If that's not possible, you can invite any specialist or construction company, and I'll provide detailed instructions on the measurements needed. If architectural plans or technical documentation exist, we can also work from those.

Question 7

What's the difference between a full design project and a design collage?

Accepted Answer

A design collage helps define the style, colour palette, materials, furniture and overall mood of the future interior — a great option if you're saving time and budget. A full design project is a comprehensive package of documents for the builders: on top of the concept it includes layout solutions, working drawings, 3D visualizations, specifications for materials, furniture and lighting, and recommendations for the build.

Question 8

What is a design collage and who is it for?

Accepted Answer

A design collage is a visual concept of the future interior that brings together furniture, finish materials, lighting, textiles, décor and the colour palette. It lets you see the style and mood of the space before work begins, and suits those who want to carry out the renovation themselves.

Question 9

Do you help with purchasing furniture and materials?

Accepted Answer

Yes. I put together detailed specifications with specific models, manufacturers, item codes and buying recommendations. Where needed, I offer alternatives across price ranges and help find equivalents if some items are unavailable.

Question 10

Who does the renovation from your project, and how do you control quality remotely?

Accepted Answer

The renovation can be carried out by your own construction team or by recommended contractors. During the build I stay in touch with the builders, advise on questions that come up, review photos and video from the site, help resolve technical issues quickly, and check that the work matches the project as part of remote supervision.

Question 11

What if I don't have my own builders?

Accepted Answer

That's not a problem. Where possible I recommend trusted specialists or help you choose a construction company in your region. I can also assess contractors' qualifications before the work starts and advise on how to organise the build.

Question 12

Can I order just the design project, without the renovation?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Many clients order the project only, to carry out the interior themselves or with their own construction team. Once the design is finished, you receive a full set of documents sufficient to carry out the work.

Question 13

What currency can I pay in?

Accepted Answer

Several payment options are available — in dollars, rubles, euros or lari. Payment can be made in whichever currency is most convenient, by prior agreement. Before we start, we choose the payment method that suits both sides.

Question 14

What interior styles do you work in?

Accepted Answer

I create individual interiors rather than copying ready-made solutions. Most often I work in contemporary, minimalist, modern-classic, Scandinavian, japandi, soft-minimalist and eclectic styles, and with interiors built around natural materials. The main goal is an interior that reflects your lifestyle, suits the architecture of the space and stays relevant for years.

Question 15

How do I get started and order a design project?

Accepted Answer

It all starts with a first consultation. You message me on your preferred messenger, we discuss the task, the area of the space and the result you want, and agree on the measurement. Then you fill in a brief and send photos of interiors you like, after which I draw up a contract — we sign it and begin the project.

Question 16

Will the finished interior match the 3D visualization?

Accepted Answer

Yes, provided the project is carried out according to the documentation and the specified materials, furniture and lighting are used. The 3D visualization isn't made for inspiration but as the most realistic representation of the future interior — that's why so much attention goes into selecting real, available materials, furniture and equipment.
