Project Inquiry
Published: July 2026 · Updated: August 2026
Use this form to start a project conversation with the studio. Describe the space, its location and your goals. The team replies by email with feasibility and next steps.
What to include
- Property type and approximate size
- City and country
- Target scope — full interior, retrofit or single room
- Desired outcomes, such as sleep, air quality or acoustics
- Timeline and budget range, if known
The form fields mirror this list. Project type, budget range, location and timeline take seconds each. A free-text description carries everything else. Name, email and an optional phone number complete the submission.
What happens to your submission
Your brief is stored securely and emailed to the studio as a notification. A designer reads it personally; nothing is auto-answered. The reply comes from a person, by email. Quiet anti-spam checks filter out bots without blocking genuine briefs.
Review starts with feasibility. Scope, location and measurable goals are checked first. A short consultation is proposed when the fit is right. That consultation reviews measurement baselines for the existing space.
Writing a useful brief
Name outcomes rather than styles. Better sleep is a workable goal. So are cleaner air, calmer acoustics and more daylight. Air goals can reference the WHO 2021 global air quality guidelines. Noise goals can reference the documented health effects of noise.
Briefs can also target recognised standards. The WELL Building Standard is one reference framework. The studio's own Longevity by Design pillars structure every proposal. Post-occupancy tracking is offered where clients consent.
Small scopes are welcome. Single-room retrofits are part of the portfolio. The documented Beyoğlu loft project was an 80 m² retrofit. A bedroom-only commission in Ankara is another completed example.
Typical project stages
- Feasibility and scoping conversation
- Baseline measurement of light, air and sound
- Concept, specification and technical drawings
- Delivery with scheduled site visits
- Handover verification against the original targets
Timescales depend on scope and location. The reply to your inquiry outlines both. Budget ranges are discussed openly before design work begins.
