Frequently Asked Questions

FURNISHD is a Collingwood-based interior design studio that helps clients discover, curate and invest confidently in stunning products that elevate their space.

Whether you’re looking for an end-to-end service to help you design and furnish your space from scratch or seeking mood boards design or full-service interior design to elevate your home, our designers are here to support you.

We enjoy collaborating with Architects, Interior designers and building designers as this is where the magic starts. We understand that each design professional has their area of expertise, and ours is furniture!

Through furniture and decorative selections we focus on the internal flow of your space and how each area makes you feel. This could be through the colours and materials we use, or the form and scale of the furniture and the placement of objects. We design with your lifestyle in mind and how each consideration will affect the way you live and use your home.

Our approach is holistic in nature, with every selection and decision working toward a beautiful end result.

We strongly believe that successful design outcomes come from collaboration between the designer and the client. Through effective communication, trust, and respect, we drive our projects and achieve exceptional results.

We invite prospective clients to view our projects and portfolio, as well as our social media channels. This will give you a good sense of what we are about, our approach to design, and how we work.

The design process can take time, especially if you are undertaking an extensive renovation. It's important to establish a strong connection and alignment of visions from the beginning.

We work off a predominantly fixed fee model based off the number of rooms you would like our help with and the level of service you would like. Two revisions are included in our fixed fee end-to-end service pricing. Additional revisions or work can be undertaken if further blocks of hours are purchased online.

We ask about your room budget and timeline up front and work with a variety of brands to ensure the final design is one you (and your wallet) will be happy with! Once the final design is completed, our team members are available to assist with ordering, making sure the unique finds make their way into your home-without you having to pay multiple invoices to a huge range of individual stores.

It's simple. Just checkout the End-to-end Furnishing Service and have our expert designer plan your space, refine your ideas, curate your designs, and scout far and wide to find the perfect options for you.

You can then shop items your love in one easy checkout with exclusive discounts and we'll handle orders, delivery coordination and post-sale issues (if any), saving yourself serious time, money, and headaches down the track.

Our standard end-to-end furnishing service usually runs across 4-10 weeks. This can vary depending on how many spaces are included, how many consults you would like with our designers, how many revisions are requested and your response times.

If we're helping you with a custom service, or more than two revisions have been requested timings may vary - we'll give you our best estimate when you reach out to us with your project! If you have a specific completion date in mind it is important you reach out as soon as possible so we can allow for this in our work flow.

Generally speaking, the best time to start is around 3 months before you want all your items to arrive.

A longer project lead time allows your designer to source from a larger range of brands, explore customised options and not be constrained by only sourcing in-stock items. This ensures your project budget is best utilised and all items are the best size and style for you and your space.

Typically speaking, we will be able to commence your project within 2 weeks from the time of your purchase and all details are confirmed.

Our designers will review and use all the information you've included in your Design Quiz to understand your personal style and space before getting started on your design. You’ll also be required to upload inspiration photos to help our designers understand your vision for the space.

We firmly believe in the power of communication and feedback as a tool. To that end, you can schedule some time to chat with your designer (for free) to discuss your needs, style preferences, and vision for your space. You’ll be asked to rate your products, concepts and designs as you progress forward, and will have plenty of one-on-one time with your designer throughout the process to ensure you’re completely satisfied with the end product.

Our team has access to and knowledge of over 350 brands (locally and overseas). A mix of well-known stores, local designer, makers, collectors and wholesale sources that we have direct relationships with.
