Form & Habitat Interiors

Services

Six ways we can help shape your space.

Engage us for a complete interior or for a single, focused piece of work. Every service begins with a conversation about how the space is used.

Residential Interior Design

Whole-home or multi-room design for new and existing houses and apartments. We bring layout, materials, lighting, furniture and colour together into one considered direction, documented clearly enough for suppliers and contractors to price and deliver.

Typical needs

  • Moving into a new home and unsure where to start
  • Rooms that feel disconnected from one another
  • A home that no longer fits how the household lives

May include

  • Briefing and space assessment
  • Concept direction with mood and material boards
  • Furniture layouts and lighting concepts
  • Finishes, joinery design intent and colour schedule
  • Design drawings for contractor pricing

Scope note. We design and document. Building, electrical, plumbing and joinery work is carried out by contractors you appoint, with our coordination where agreed.

02Design

Commercial Interior Design

Interiors for offices, studios, small retail and hospitality spaces. We start with how people use the space — staff, visitors and customers — and design layouts, finishes and furniture that support it while expressing the organisation's character.

Typical needs

  • Fitting out a new office or shop
  • A workplace that no longer supports how teams work
  • A guest house, café or hospitality space that needs a coherent identity

May include

  • Occupancy and workflow briefing
  • Zoning and layout options
  • Material, furniture and lighting direction
  • Coordination input for landlord and fit-out requirements
  • Design package for contractor tender

Scope note. Fit-out works, fire-safety design, M&E engineering and statutory approvals are the responsibility of appropriately qualified professionals and contractors.

03Planning

Space Planning

A focused service for when the problem is the plan. We study how you move through the space, test alternative arrangements and show the trade-offs clearly, so you can decide before money is spent on furniture or building work.

Typical needs

  • Rooms that feel cramped or awkward to move through
  • Planning a renovation and testing layout ideas first
  • Fitting more function into a compact apartment or office

May include

  • Measured review of existing drawings or site measurements
  • Two or three alternative layout options
  • Furniture placement and circulation plans
  • Storage and zoning recommendations

Scope note. Where a layout involves removing walls or relocating services, a structural engineer or relevant specialist should confirm feasibility.

04Selection & procurement support

Furniture and Material Selection

Guided selection of the things you touch and live with. We shortlist furniture, lighting, fabrics and finishes against your brief and budget, assemble samples, and prepare a clear schedule so ordering is straightforward.

Typical needs

  • Overwhelmed by choice, or worried pieces will not work together
  • Furnishing a new home or office within a set budget
  • Wanting durable materials suited to the climate and use

May include

  • Furniture, lighting and finish shortlists
  • Physical or digital sample boards
  • Furniture and finishes schedule with suppliers and quantities
  • Procurement support and order tracking, where agreed

Scope note. Purchases are made from third-party suppliers. Where we assist with ordering, terms, lead times and warranties remain with the supplier.

05Design

Renovation and Interior Refresh

Design for homes and workplaces that need updating rather than starting over. We identify what to keep, what to change and where effort will make the biggest difference, then design the refresh and coordinate with your chosen contractor.

Typical needs

  • A dated kitchen, bathroom or living space
  • Preparing a home for a new stage of life
  • Improving a space without moving out for months

May include

  • Condition and priorities review
  • Refresh design: finishes, joinery updates, lighting and furniture
  • Scope of works for contractor pricing
  • Design-side site visits during works, where agreed

Scope note. We do not carry out construction. Renovation works are delivered by licensed contractors, with structural, electrical and plumbing changes confirmed by qualified professionals.

06Styling

Interior Styling

The final layer. We select and arrange accessories, artwork, textiles and plants — using what you already own where possible — so a finished space feels personal and complete. Suitable after a project or as a standalone service.

Typical needs

  • A finished home that still feels unfinished
  • Preparing a space for photography or a launch
  • Wanting to use existing pieces in a better way

May include

  • Styling walk-through and brief
  • Accessory, artwork and textile sourcing
  • On-site arrangement on a styling day
  • A simple guide for keeping the look

Scope note. Styling is decorative and does not include alterations, installation of fixed items or electrical work.

What we do — and what we don't.

We are designers and stylists, not builders. Being clear about this protects you: specialist work is carried out by people qualified and insured to do it.
