01 / Services

Three ways to work with the studio

We take an apartment through design and author supervision. Construction works are executed by licensed contractors you appoint, and we check their work against the drawings.

See what each package includes
  1. Concept and planning

    from UAH 980 / m²

    Measured survey, room-by-room zoning, two layout options and a first cost band. Documentation runs 4–6 weeks.

  2. Working drawings

    from UAH 1,450 / m²

    Electrical and plumbing setting-out, tile and finishing schedules, joinery details and a material specification with named suppliers.

  3. Author supervision

    from UAH 320 / m²

    Four site milestones: demolition and setting-out, rough-in, tiling and wet areas, finishing. A short written report follows each visit.

Site work typically runs 16–24 weeks. The final quote follows a measured survey.

02 — Process

Four site milestones, each closed with a written report

The studio delivers design documentation and author supervision. Construction works are carried out by licensed contractors, and we check their work against the drawings at every stage.

  1. 01

    Demolition and setting-out

    We mark new partitions, floor levels and wet-zone boundaries on site before demolition begins. Socket and riser positions come from the measured survey, so nothing is placed by eye.

    Short written report after each visit

  2. 02

    Rough-in

    Electrical, plumbing and ventilation routes are checked against the drawings before walls are closed. Deviations are logged the same day, so materials are not bought twice.

    Short written report after each visit

  3. 03

    Tiling and wet areas

    Waterproofing layers, shower falls and tile setting-out are inspected before grouting. Moving a socket after tiling is exactly the retrofit the survey prevents.

    Short written report after each visit

  4. 04

    Finishing

    Paint, joinery and thresholds are reviewed against the specification, then a snag list is issued to the contractor and re-checked before handover.

    Short written report after each visit

A 1970s Podil apartment, opened up

Before: a closed kitchen corridor and a bathroom tiled over old wiring. After: one load-bearing opening, a rebuilt wet room, and 84 m² that finally breathes. We designed it. Construction was executed by a licensed contractor we supervised at four milestones, with a short written report after each visit.

05 — Client words

Two Kyiv renovations, told by the people who lived through them

We draw, we specify, we supervise. Builders carry out the works, so these accounts mix our drawings with their site. We publish both sides.

“The measured survey showed the kitchen wall was 60 mm out of square. Because we caught it before the drawings were frozen, the tall units were adjusted on paper, not cut on site.”

Olena M. Apartment on Hlybochytska St, Kyiv 2024

“Four supervision visits, each followed by a short written report. The tiling and wet-area stage saved us: the drain fall was corrected before the screed set.”

Quotes are published with the clients' permission and shortened for length. Scope, budget and site conditions differ from project to project, so nothing written here is a commitment for another home. Documentation typically runs 4–6 weeks and site work 16–24 weeks; both are ranges.
