A continuous service
The service begins in the styling and decoration phases, when we identify furniture and furnishings in dialogue with the structure of the space. Once the proposals are approved, we accompany the client to the showroom to see the pieces in person, weigh their proportions, touch seats, fabrics and surfaces, because images carry an intention but confirmation always comes from the direct encounter.
From that point on we take care of quotations, negotiations, orders, production, deliveries and installation. We work as an independent direction, with no catalogue to promote and no targets tied to any brand, and every choice sits within the agreed budget. The responsibility is to the project and to the people who will live with it.
Furniture, objects and memories
The service covers everything that makes the house ready to live in:
- complete kitchens and bathrooms;
- bespoke furniture and serial production for every room;
- seating, tables, storage, shelving systems;
- bedrooms, walk-in wardrobes and storage;
- technical and decorative lighting;
- textiles: curtains, rugs, upholstery and selected linens;
- furniture and furnishings for outdoor spaces, where present;
- planting and structural pots, where coherent with the project.
Personal objects remain outside it, the cutlery, the small accessories, the souvenirs of travel. On request we accompany these choices too, but we gladly leave a space of freedom, because a home should welcome a measure of spontaneity. We cultivate a reserved network of companies and artisan workshops, far from large-scale retail and distinguished by an exemplary rigour, whose pieces we propose when the project calls for them, with no commissions and no hidden markups.
Bespoke, serial and collectible furniture
Bespoke, serial and the occasional gallery piece speak, for us, the same language. Bespoke work is born from zero and calibrated to the millimetre on the space that receives it, serial furniture keeps the budget in balance with consistent quality and reliability, while collectible pieces add, where it makes sense, a rarer note. Our role is to balance their presence, so that the home avoids both the catalogue effect and the purely decorative exercise.
What we mean by furniture quality
“Designer furniture” is an inflated expression. Quality is measured over time and recognised in solid construction, coherent materials, a declared supply chain and a real interlocutor when one is needed. A bespoke piece is born for that wall and that way of living, and behind it there is almost always an artisan who owns his workshop, reachable at every stage of the work and afterwards, during post-delivery support. The same criterion guides our choice of industrial brands, where continuity, service and assistance count before the image.
From selection to order
Selection and purchase follow a precise order:
- Selection during design: furniture and furnishings coherent with the space, placed in the 2D and 3D visualisations so the client sees them in relation to the whole.
- A focused showroom visit: a few proposals, already filtered. Better one strong choice and a few reasoned alternatives, because an unlimited fan of options produces only fatigue.
- Finishes and colours: physical samples to settle fabrics, woods and claddings, down to the detail.
- Quotations and formal approval: we gather terms from suppliers, negotiating on the client’s behalf, and every quotation is approved in writing before we proceed.
- Orders, deliveries and installation: once orders are confirmed and deposits paid, we follow production, shipping and installation through to the end.
The final choices return in updated renderings and in an ordered folder of quotations and product sheets, where every piece can be traced.
Logistics and on-site presence
Between the approval of the furniture and the finished home lies a delicate phase, made of timing and checks. We verify in advance passages, stairwells, lifts and loading permits, we set production and site to the same tempo so that supplies arrive when the rooms are ready to welcome them, and we arrange temporary storage and staggered deliveries without congesting the space. On installation day we are present, following our coordination method, to make sure the pieces arrive intact, match the order and are installed without damaging what has already been done.
Unexpected events and client protection
The unexpected belongs to the nature of the work, from delays around the holidays to transport, from defective pieces to errors on technical items. When it happens, we contact suppliers and companies directly, open the replacement or repair procedures and carry them to their conclusion, and with the studio at the table, rather than an individual buyer, response times shorten. We handle returns, disputes and, while still possible, changes in progress. Warranties, terms and payment deadlines have their place in the shared project files, which give an ordered view of every supply.
Ethics of our work
Selecting furniture is fine-grained work, where design, budget and quality meet, and it works when it is recognised as such. We end the engagement if a client uses our selections to replicate online, at the lowest price, furniture identical only in appearance, if the designer is reduced to an intermediary for discounts, or if artisans’ quotations and drawings are used to have copies made elsewhere. With the same care we protect those who work with us, because a bespoke quotation is time and expertise, and deserves to be treated as such.
Why the studio is the reference point for procurement
The studio is the only party that sees the project whole, in its spaces, its functions, its rhythms of life and its technical constraints, and that is the best position from which to choose and govern the furniture. Doing it alone, in this field, resolves more often than not into time lost and uneven results. Our choices answer to a single criterion, a quality that is rare and discreet, distinguished by exact details rather than conspicuous gestures, and it is that quality that gives continuity between the project as drawn and the home as lived.
