What we do
Turnkey interiors, and the pieces of it.
Whole-home work is most of what we do, but a kitchen, a wardrobe wall or one renovated room is a perfectly good place to start — and a sensible way to see how we work before handing over a whole apartment.
At a glance
Six things, and roughly what each one takes.
Durations are what these actually run, not a best case. They assume decisions arrive when they are asked for — which is the single biggest thing under your control.

Most of what we do
Turnkey home interiors
The whole home, from empty developer shell to the day you move in. One contract, one programme, one team accountable for the result.
Turnkey is the only arrangement where nobody can point at somebody else. The alternative — a designer, a separate contractor and three vendors you coordinate yourself — moves every gap between trades onto you, and the gaps between trades are where interiors go wrong.
- Typically
- 10–16 weeks on site for a 2BHK
- Runs through
- Stages 01–10
What is included
- Space planning, Vastu review and the full drawing set
- VR walkthrough before anything is approved
- Modular kitchen, wardrobes and all fixed joinery
- False ceiling, electrical, plumbing and wet areas
- Flooring, painting, polishing and finishes
- Loose furniture, lighting and styling, if you want it
Not included: Structural changes needing society or municipal sanction, which we will identify and help you apply for but cannot approve.
Modular
Kitchens
Layout, storage engineering, counters, appliances and services. The room with the most decisions per square foot, and the one worth getting right first.
A kitchen is planned around the three things you do most and the distance between them, not around a shutter catalogue. We set the working triangle, the clearance behind an open dishwasher and the height of the hob to the person who cooks — then the finishes are the easy part.
- Typically
- 4–6 weeks
- Runs through
- Stages 03–09
What is included
- Working-triangle layout and appliance planning
- Carcass and shutter specification, with hardware named
- Counter, splashback and sink cut-outs
- Point planning for every appliance, before tiling
- Chimney, hob and water lines coordinated with the civil work
Not included: Appliances themselves — we specify and can procure them, but you buy them at your own warranty and price.
Modular
Wardrobes and storage
Storage designed around what you actually own rather than a standard shutter count. Often the fastest way to make an existing home feel twice the size.
The internal layout is the whole job. A wardrobe sized for saris, one sized for shirts and one that has to take a suitcase are three different objects behind identical doors — and the standard three-shelf-and-a-rail unit fits none of them well.
- Typically
- 3–5 weeks
- Runs through
- Stages 03–09
What is included
- An inventory of what has to go in before anything is drawn
- Internal layout: hanging, folded, long, and the suitcase
- Shutter type — hinged, sliding or walk-in — chosen by clearance
- Loft storage and the honest answer about how often you will use it
- Lighting inside, where the depth justifies it
Not included: Free-standing furniture. If a piece is not fixed to the wall it is on the loose-furniture list, not this one.
Existing homes
Renovation
Older apartments and homes that need rethinking rather than redecorating — including the civil, electrical and plumbing work most firms would rather not touch.
Renovation is the one kind of project where the survey matters more than the design. What is behind the plaster, where the old wiring actually runs and which wall is doing structural work all decide what is possible — so we open up and measure before we draw, not after.
- Typically
- 8–14 weeks, depending on what the survey finds
- Runs through
- Stages 01–10
What is included
- Measured survey of the existing home, as built rather than as drawn
- Demolition schedule, and what has to stay
- Rewiring, replumbing and waterproofing to current standards
- Phasing, if you need to keep living in part of it
- Debris removal and society coordination
Not included: Work on the building envelope or anything shared — external walls, common plumbing stacks, terrace waterproofing.
Satara & the ghats
Bungalows and second homes
Row houses, wadas and weekend homes toward Panchgani and Mahabaleshwar, where climate and orientation matter far more than they do in a tower.
An independent house can be planned around light and a courtyard instead of around a corridor, which is a freedom apartment design does not have. It also has to survive a heavy monsoon and a long dry season, so shading, ventilation and the choice between kota, shahabad and tile are performance decisions before they are aesthetic ones.
- Typically
- 12–20 weeks
- Runs through
- Stages 01–10
What is included
- Orientation, shading and cross-ventilation study
- Verandas, courtyards and the transition spaces that make these homes work
- Local stone and lime finishes, specified for the climate
- Remote supervision with weekly photographs, for owners living elsewhere
- Coordination with a local civil contractor where one is already engaged
Not included: New construction and structural design. We work on the interior of a built or nearly-built house, alongside your architect.
Workspace
Offices and small commercial
Clinics, studios, and offices under about five thousand square feet, where the brief is a working space rather than a showpiece.
Commercial work is judged on how it holds up, not on how it photographs. Circulation, acoustics, cable management and the finishes that survive a hundred people a day are the brief — and the programme is usually driven by a rent-free period, so the date is a real constraint rather than a preference.
- Typically
- 6–10 weeks
- Runs through
- Stages 01–10
What is included
- Occupancy and circulation planning, with the fire route respected
- Workstation, meeting and quiet-space mix
- Acoustic treatment where the plan demands it
- Data, power and lighting layouts coordinated as one
- Phased or after-hours execution for occupied premises
Not included: Statutory approvals and fire NOC, which stay with the licensed consultant, though we draw to their requirements.
Questions
The things people actually ask first.
And if what you want to ask is not here, it is probably specific to your home — which is the sort of question worth asking a person.
Ask us directlyWhat does a full home interior cost?
It depends far more on scope than on size — how much joinery, which finishes, whether civil work is involved. Rather than publish a rate that would be wrong for most people, we ask about your budget early and plan to it honestly. If what you want and what you have set aside do not meet, we would rather tell you at the first meeting than at the quotation.
How long does a project take?
A typical two or three bedroom turnkey home runs about ten to fourteen weeks on site, after the design is frozen. Design itself usually takes three to five weeks depending on how quickly decisions are made. We give you a dated programme before you sign anything.
Can I really see the design in VR before approving it?
Yes. We build the 3D model anyway, so putting you inside it costs nothing extra. It matters most for things drawings communicate badly: ceiling height, corridor width, how much light a room actually gets, and whether the kitchen feels cramped when two people are in it.
How will I know what is happening on site?
Photographs and a progress note reach you on WhatsApp every Friday, without you having to ask. A running snag list sits alongside it. If something has slipped, you hear about it that week rather than at handover.
Do you work with a fixed set of materials?
No. We have preferred vendors because they have proved reliable, but the specification follows the brief and the budget. Every material in your quotation is named with its brand and grade, so you can compare our quote against anyone else’s line by line.
Do you take on partial work, or only whole homes?
Both. A kitchen, a wardrobe wall or a single room renovation is a perfectly reasonable place to start, and a good way to see how we work before committing to a whole flat.
Not sure what you like yet?
Nine short questions, mostly pictures. You will come away knowing your theme, your materials, and roughly what your home should cost to do properly.
