how we work
As a full-service interior design studio, we approach projects in a considered and collaborative way. From concept to completion we deliver highly tailored, professional and well documented solutions combining any number of our project offerings to meet the unique needs of our clients
Phase 1 | Initial Consultation
Please telephone, email or submit our online enquiry form here to discuss your project requirements. Following this, a consultation will be arranged at Coote & Co. to learn about you and your project in detail and form the project brief. Concluding this meeting, we will provide a scope of works, design brief and fee proposal.
Phase 2 | Concept
First, we undertake a site visit to see the home, surrounds and any key pieces for use in the project. Your concept looks at the broad design direction for your project including preliminary floor plans, materials, colours and key furniture pieces. We will present these concepts to you in our Prahran design studio.
Phase 3 | Design Development
This is where our design is thoroughly detailed - from joinery to bespoke sofas and lighting plans. Your final design will be presented along with your itemised budget, a payment schedule and project timeline.
Phase 4 | Production, Project Management and Installation
Coote & Co are heavily involved in the bespoke production of all items in your project. We manage this stage with the greatest care and carry out installation seamlessly. A final walkthrough ensures all details meet our high quality standards.
Coote & Co. operates Australia-wide, with most projects in Victoria and a strong presence in Queensland, supported by our Noosa studio. We currently have active work in Perth and Tasmania. We welcome enquiries from all locations, including internationally — travel inspires us, and we’d love to collaborate with you, wherever you are.
Our studio takes on a limited number of interior projects at a time to ensure Charlotte remains closely involved in guiding their creative direction and overseeing the design.
