How We Work

How We Work

Discover

We begin by understanding your requirements, lifestyle, preferences and budget. Based on these discussions, we present a concept proposal with layouts and curated reference images to establish the design direction.

Define

Once the concept is aligned, we prepare a detailed project proposal outlining the scope of work, specifications, timelines and investment required for the project.

Design

After approval, we develop detailed 2D drawings, 3D visualisations and technical documentation to ensure every aspect of the design is thoughtfully planned.

Deliver

Our team coordinates the execution process, manages site implementation and oversees quality control to bring the design to life. The completed space is then carefully reviewed and handed over to the client.

FAQ

Hiring an Interior designer: How does it work?

All designers work differently. At Fabyellow Architecture & Interior Solutions, first a short questionnaire and follow-up phone conversation will help us evaluate your project, and if we may be of help. We then offer an initial personal consultation. In this meeting Fabyellow will walk through your home or business with you, and speak with you about the specific needs of your interior design or construction project. No actual design is done in this meeting, just an evaluation of the project scope and your particular needs and timing.

What will our project cost ?

It depends on the level you wish to take your project. If you have a specific design fee budget in mind, we are more than happy to prepare a proposal, stating what we can offer, keeping within your budget.

How do we get started, and what is next?

Before beginning work, you go through a detailed questionnaire that helps us get to know you better. We then engage in a visioning session and work with you on any fact finding (preferred design styles, requirements for each room, how you live and work in your home etc.) we photograph the residence/office, and take formal measurements. From there we prepare a schematic design presentation, showing you our initial drawings, proposed material selections, palette options, and concepts. After design approval of that stage, we work with you on narrowing down the final selections, pricing, and implementing the design.

What cities do you work in?

Fabyellow Architecture & Interior Solutions works primarily in all of Mumbai, Thane and Navi Mumbai with select engagements.

Where do you get your furniture?

We have our modular team and our carpenters and sometimes depending on the circumstances we purchase product from a variety of sources. We also use local stores, to the trade showrooms, and retail locations, as well as online and catalogue retailers. If our clients have sources that they prefer to work with, we are more than happy to do so. We also work with local custom upholstery and drapery workrooms.

Do we need to use your contractor or architect?

No. We will work with your builder, or tradespeople, we can give them our designs for execution. We are more than happy to refer you to those who can help as well.

Do I have to make purchases through you?

No. You are welcome to make any purchases on your own. Most clients do purchase through us, because of the discount we pass along.

What is the difference between an interior designer and an interior decorator?

Interior decorators typically focus on the decorative elements of a home, such as: paint color, furniture, décor, window treatments, bedding etc. Interior designers do this, and more. Designers typically have formal program training. An interior designer should have knowledge of interior architecture principals, drafting skills, general building code guidelines and more.

What experience do you have?

Fabyellow Design Studio brings together over 15 years of professional experience in architecture and interior design. Our team has worked across a diverse range of residential, commercial and hospitality projects, delivering thoughtful design solutions from concept development through execution. Over the years, we have collaborated with architects, designers, engineers, contractors and specialist consultants to create spaces that are functional, timeless and tailored to our clients’ needs.

How long will our project take?

This will vary per project. A typical kitchen remodel may take approximately 2 months to design and build. A living room remodel may take a month to design, and a month to receive and install all product and furniture. If you are remodeling your bathroom, the process may take only a month from start to finish. A custom home design from start to finish may take 3 months to layout, plan and execute the details.
