What to Expect on the Day:
Project Brief workshop & site investigation is approx 2.5 hr session that includes:
- A face-to-face Workshop to discuss your current set-up. Sometimes it’s helpful to address pros & cons; what works well, what could be done better or improved upon. Pinpoint key challenges you are having. This may include discussing the existing site & look at any furniture & equipment for reuse potential, or discussing new layout & design ideas with you.
- Lisa will conduct an Initial Site Survey of your tenancy. We’ll discuss your thoughts & aims regarding the space. You’ll need to have a good (reasonably accurate, to-scale, drafted) existing conditions plan available for us to work with BEFORE the consultation; contact us if this is not available
The video below is an example of what we can discuss and start planning together on the day; this small salon plan we discussed and mud-mapped various ideas for different layouts, exploring different brief requirements to establish an idea of what may work best for the client, and provide design direction. We were able to explore 4 different layouts during the session.
