  • Feel confident with qualified interior architects that provide all required insurances and clearances before starting any construction works.
  • Know the details of your interior design project beforehand so you don’t hit any bumps in the road in the middle of renovation works: feasibility, budget…

Working with an interior designer in Marseille

Your interior architect is your partner to redesign your interior in Marseille. After collecting your needs, they will work on your project from the specifications to the delivery.

Step 1: Meeting your interior designer - Project draft

  • During your first meeting, your designer will study your space potential directly at your home in Marseille. Their main goal is to understand your needs and provide you with a main concept/solution on the spot.
  • This visit allows them to communicate ideas and first impressions directly with you. They will inform you about all essential steps to take during an interior design project.
  • The main technical aspects of your interior are collected (details about walls, isolation, plumbing, electricity, water and gas).
  • You will learn about any required administrative procedures for the proper execution of your project: co-ownership/condo agreements (“accord de copropriété”), works declaration (“déclaration préalable”), etc.
  • The interior designer will list all the ups and downs in your home: natural lighting, potential for space optimisation and redistribution, transversal load-bearing walls…
  • At the end of the visit, you will get a rough price range for the renovation works to be considered. It’s not a quote, but rather a back of the napkin estimation that is meant to help you make decisions.
  • Thanks to their experience and expertise in interior architecture, interior designers are able to share style ideas and recommendations (materials, colors, equipment, decoration and furniture) while taking your personal preferences into account.
  • If you are currently looking to buy property and want to make sure your prospective home is the right one for an interior design project, the architect can perform a home pre-purchase advice to confirm the potential and flag issues.
  • Multiple conversations may be required. Once you have agreed on a concept, you can decide to move forward with design specifications (see Step 2). You’ll receive a mission contract showing fees and project steps.

Step 2: Specifying your interior architecture project

  • After carefully measuring the existing space and based on your needs and house/apartment’s potential, the interior architect shares different remodeling options using sketches.
  • Once you select a project, the interior designer will draft specifications, including information about any technical component in the project: floor plans, electrical plans, section plans, 3D views…
  • Your architect or interior designer will then select and suggest furniture and other decoration items as well as references for materials (tiles, wooden floors, taps…).
  • Once specifications are ready, you’ll get the estimated cost for your project.

At this stage, you can decide to keep working with the same architect/designer for the execution step. They will then supervise the construction works on site and keep you updated.

Step 3: Supervision of interior design works in Marseille

  • Based on the works’ description, the interior designer reaches out to partner companies (craftsmen or constructors selected for you depending on the specificity of your project). Thanks to their expertise, they are able to get the right price.
  • Your interior designer will supervise all stakeholders on site (construction company, kitchen designer, tiler, carpenter, plumber, mason, painter, etc) and keep you updated.
  • They will make sure that your project is well implemented and monitor the progress, compliance with deadlines and specifications. Meetings on site will be organised to ensure smooth progress of the works.
  • Regarding interior decoration, their knowledge of your project and your personal taste allows them to suggest furniture, decoration and colors to harmonize your future house or apartment in Marseille.
  • Whenever possible, you will benefit from business discounts from suppliers and shops selected for your interior decoration.
  • After you move in or move back in, the interior designer helps setting up your furniture and decorative items.
