Design complete set (Purchasing service)

For comprehensive project implementation one need to transfer all creative ideas to a clear language of figures, product items and prices. Knowledge of this “language” is one more professional targets of an architect. Also my services include many functions on search and selection of decoration materials, furniture and interior items required, looking at the most appropriate ones in terms of style, quality, price and time of arrival of the solution for your interior. I am sure that you as a Customer may do it yourself because lists and specifications of the finished working interior design contain principal features of items (size, color, material, sometimes a particular manufacturing company and a certain collection). This process however demands efforts, time and specific knowledge. That’s why I offer you an individual service on design complete set which means that a specialist orders and purchases items required.

Work on the complete set is performed as follows:

  1. We prepare a detailed specification for complete set which contains a list of items required to be selected. We describe requirements to them (if known) and specify the budget. A complete set usually includes the following items:
    • decoration materials (ceramic tile, parquet, stone, wall paper, etc.);
    • radiators, convectors;
    • windows and window sills;
    • lamps;
    • doors;
    • sanitary equipment (appliances, mixer taps, railings);
    • kitchen unit;
    • ready-made furniture (the list to be approved);
    • tailor-made furniture (sketches to be approved);
    • textile (curtains);
    • accessories (due to the list).
  2. Preparation and signing of the contract for complete set.

    *The work starts after advance payment.

  3. I analyze and provide actual information on market assessment with the purpose of finding of the most appropriate offers of materials according to the price-quality criteria (based on the complete set specification).
  4. Based on the market analysis prepared I select the most appropriate manufacturing companies or suppliers within the Customer’s project implementation.
  5. I prepare estimation of the required quantity of materials taking into account the necessary margin for laying, facing, transportation, etc.
  6. I accompany the Customer when he/she selects and purchases certain units (if necessary).

My work in frames of the service described results in a finished album of complete set which specifies the exact quantity of required materials, product items, collections, manufacturing company and contacts of the supplier which may supply these items. Based on my own experience I may say that the major part of items is ordered and purchased in the process of service providing.

If after reading the information provided you decide to use the professional services of complete set I advise you to start cooperation at the state of approval of the interior project concept solution, which allows for the most feasible implementation. Thus, the working drafts will contain that very kitchen unit which is planned to be installed (including all the engineering recommendations of a particular manufacturing company as to plumbing and electricity), that very sanitary equipment (including exact overall features and technical recommendations for a plumber) and those lamps (including necessary instructions on assembly) which are planned to be purchased. Alternatively you shall realize that in order to avoid mistakes at the construction site the working design is likely to be amended as the materials are selected. Or you will have to steadily control and monitor the construction and assembling works, which will decrease the possibility of additional corrections but will not help to avoid them at all.

*The service is paid for on a monthly basis, the cost is individual depending on the number of items in a specification.

The cost of service of inclusion the required items to the finished project starts from 15,000 Russian rubles per month.

**A complete set belongs to the consultation services, which does not imply payment by me for the ordered and selected items. In some cases an invoice may be issued and payment may be made via the Internet-bank.
