Services

Four disciplines. One team answerable for all of them.

Each discipline is strong on its own. Together, run as one programme by one team, they remove the gaps where hotel renovations usually go wrong.

01

Interior Design

A clear concept, drawn down to the last detail — designed for guests, built for housekeeping.

What it covers

  • Concept, narrative and brand positioning for the property
  • Space planning and guest flow — arrival, rooms, F&B, back of house
  • Lighting design: layered, dimmable, scene-based
  • Material, finish and colour specification
  • Alignment with operator and brand standards where a flag applies
  • Construction drawings, details and specification packages
  • A full-scale mock-up room before roll-out

How we approach it

  1. 01We start from the guest journey and the rate you want to command, not from a mood board.
  2. 02Every finish is specified at commercial grade: cleanable, repairable and replaceable without a refurbishment.
  3. 03The mock-up room is where owner, operator and housekeeping sign off — before a hundred rooms are built the same way.

Why it matters to an owner

Guest experience
Rooms that photograph well and feel better in person — the thing reviews actually talk about.
Revenue
A concept tied to positioning, so the renovation supports the rate rather than just refreshing the look.
Risk & compliance
Durable, fire-rated, accessible specifications that keep lifecycle costs and liability down.
Timeline control
Decisions locked on paper and in the mock-up, not argued about on site.

02

Construction & Renovation

From strip-out to final fix — including the parts guests never see and inspectors always do.

  • HVAC supply duct · coordinated in 3D
  • Cable tray · power & data
  • Acoustic stud partition · 100 mm
  • Fire-stopping at every penetration

What it covers

  • Condition surveys and intrusive investigations before pricing
  • Strip-out, structural alterations and new layouts
  • Mechanical, electrical and plumbing — HVAC, power, data, water
  • Fire safety, compartmentation and life-safety systems
  • Acoustic separation between rooms and corridors
  • Bathrooms and wet rooms, including prefabricated pods
  • Accessibility upgrades
  • Phased works in hotels that keep trading

How we approach it

  1. 01We open up walls and ceilings before we commit to a price, so hidden conditions are found in survey, not mid-programme.
  2. 02In operating hotels we phase floor by floor, with noise windows, dust control and segregated access agreed with the general manager.
  3. 03Services are coordinated in 3D before installation — fewer clashes, fewer opened ceilings.

Why it matters to an owner

Guest experience
Quiet, comfortable rooms: the acoustic and HVAC work guests notice only when it's missing.
Revenue
Phasing that keeps inventory selling while the works move through the building.
Risk & compliance
Fire, electrical and accessibility compliance handled and documented, not left to sign-off day.
Timeline control
Surveys and services coordination up front — the two biggest sources of overrun, removed early.

03

Furnishing & FF&E

Furniture, fixtures and equipment specified, sourced, delivered and installed — on budget, on date.

TX-510Blackout & sheer curtain set1 / window4–6 wks

What it covers

  • FF&E specification and the full item schedule
  • Procurement, sampling and supplier management
  • Custom joinery and millwork
  • Contract-grade testing: fire, durability, cleanability
  • Lead-time management, logistics and warehousing
  • Installation, styling and snagging
  • Operating supplies & equipment (OS&E) on request

How we approach it

  1. 01FF&E is planned backwards from the opening date: long-lead items are ordered while construction is still on site.
  2. 02Every item is approved against a physical sample — no surprises when the crates are opened.
  3. 03Deliveries are consolidated and sequenced floor by floor, so rooms are installed and handed over in batches.

Why it matters to an owner

Guest experience
The furniture is what guests touch, sit on and sleep in. It has to feel right and keep feeling right.
Revenue
Rooms back on sale sooner, because the FF&E arrives when the room is ready — not weeks after.
Risk & compliance
Contract-grade and fire-rated items, with test certificates kept for your records.
Timeline control
Lead times managed as part of the programme, not discovered at the end of it.

04

Project Management

One programme, one budget, one point of accountability — and reporting you can actually read.

Master programme · weeks

Illustrative

  • Surveys & briefweeks 0 to 8
  • Design & mock-upweeks 6 to 24
  • Permitsweeks 14 to 28
  • Procurement (FF&E)weeks 22 to 48
  • Constructionweeks 28 to 58
  • Installation & stylingweeks 50 to 60
  • Handover & defectsweeks 58 to 66

What it covers

  • Budget, cost planning and change control
  • Master programme with a managed critical path
  • Permits, approvals and authority coordination
  • Consultant, specialist and trade coordination
  • Risk register and weekly progress reporting
  • Quality inspections and snagging
  • Handover documentation, training and the defects period

How we approach it

  1. 01You get one weekly report: programme, cost, risks and decisions needed — in plain language, on one page first.
  2. 02Changes are priced and approved before they are built. The budget only moves when you decide it should.
  3. 03We stay through the defects period. Handover is a stage of the project, not the end of our interest in it.

Why it matters to an owner

Guest experience
Opening on the date you sold rooms for, with a property that works on day one.
Revenue
Cost certainty and fewer days closed — the two numbers that decide the return on a renovation.
Risk & compliance
Approvals, contracts and documentation managed by people who do this every week.
Timeline control
A programme owned by one team, so delays can't fall between contractors.
