What is Space Planning & why is it so important?

Space planning is essentially planning out a space with a focus on organising or arranging the layout.  It is an essential part of interior design as function, the aesthetics, safety, and efficiency of a space is considered so that the end result is a space that is both visually appealing and highly practical.  The placement of furniture, fixtures, equipment, and other elements within a space are also considered so that the function and ‘traffic’ flow of a space is optimised. Ultimately, interior design space planning is a fundamental process that influences how a space functions, looks and feels.

How do you know if this is the service you require?

There are a few factors to consider as everyone’s circumstances differ. This service is perfect for you if the following apply:

1. Limited Space

If you have a limited amount of space or a challenging layout and want to maximise the functionality of that space.

2. Renovation

If you're planning a renovation project and the layout needs to be reconfigured to make the best possible use of the available space taking into account any other desired changes.

3. Inefficient Layout

If your current layout is inefficient, lacks flow, or no longer meets your needs, a new plan for the space is needed to create a more functional and aesthetically pleasing space.

4. New Construction

If you're building a new home or commercial space, working with an interior designer as well as an architect and contractors will ensure that the space is optimised for its intended purpose (e.g., the positioning of plug sockets, etc.)

5. Furniture Arrangement

If you're struggling to arrange furniture in a visually appealing and practical manner.

6. Lifestyle Changes

If your family or lifestyle is changing (e.g., welcoming a new family member or working from home), you may need to reconfigure your space to accommodate these changes.

7. Storage Optimisation

If you're struggling with storage issues, and are looking for creative ways to incorporate storage solutions.

8. A new home

If you’re about to move home or have just moved and are not sure how to plan out your space effectively and are struggling to visualise how everything is going to work together.
