A way of working.
Services
StudioDeWynter brings together multidisciplinary design expertise to resolve the relationships between architecture, interiors, products, materials and the practical requirements of a project.

-
Every project begins with listening. Discovery is about understanding your home, your priorities and the life you want it to support. Before ideas are explored, we take time to uncover what is said, what is meant, and often what hasn't yet been articulated.
-
Developing the spatial arrangement and overall design direction. This is where proportion, circulation, materials, finishes, lighting, furniture and the relationship between spaces begin to come together.
-
The developed design is presented for discussion and refinement. We review the proposed direction together, make any necessary adjustments and establish the design before moving into detailed development.
-
The approved design is taken into detail. Layouts, cabinetry, appliances, materials, finishes, furniture and technical considerations are resolved so that the design can be properly communicated and priced.
-
The design information is prepared for quotation and appropriate manufacturers, fabricators or specialist suppliers are identified. Quotations are obtained and reviewed, with StudioDeWynter helping you compare proposals, clarify differences and negotiate where appropriate.
-
Once a supplier or specialist has been appointed, StudioDeWynter coordinates the design information with the relevant parties and remains involved where required through delivery, helping to ensure that the finished result reflects the design intent.

Fees & Investment
Every project is different. Professional fees reflect the scope, complexity and level of design expertise required. From individual consultations and Design Audits to comprehensive architectural interiors commissions, each service is clearly defined and priced according to its requirements.
Fees are established with reference to the work involved, the level of design development required and the agreed deliverables. Before work begins, you will understand the scope of the service, what it includes and the associated fee.
StudioDeWynter provides independent design services. Products, furniture, materials, building work and specialist services are contracted and paid for separately, directly to the relevant suppliers or providers.
Introductory Call
Free · 15 minutes
A brief initial conversation to understand your project, establish whether StudioDeWynter is the right fit and identify the most appropriate next step.
This is an opportunity to outline your aspirations, discuss your priorities and understand how my services might support your project. It is an initial discussion rather than a design consultation or detailed project assessment.
Design Consultation
£250 · Up to 2 hours
Dedicated time to discuss your project, explore challenges and receive professional design guidance tailored to your circumstances.
Whether you are considering changes to your home, reviewing a kitchen layout, struggling with a particular design decision or looking for direction before committing to a larger project, a consultation provides an opportunity to explore the possibilities and consider a more informed way forward.
The focus is on your priorities, the questions you need answered and the decisions you need to make. The consultation provides professional guidance and recommendations within the agreed time, without committing you to a wider design commission.
Design Audit
£750
A structured review of your home or proposed project, examining the existing arrangements, identifying opportunities and challenges, and establishing recommendations to inform the next stage.
An Audit takes a broader view than an individual consultation. It considers how spaces function, how they relate to one another and where improvements or alternative approaches could deliver a more considered overall result.
The findings provide a clearer understanding of the issues to address, the opportunities worth exploring and the priorities to consider before progressing. The scope of the review and its deliverables are agreed in advance, so you understand what the Audit will cover and what you will receive.
A Design Audit can also provide a valuable foundation for a subsequent design commission, should you decide to take the project further.
Professional fees reflect the expertise, responsibility and work required to deliver the agreed scope, not simply the number of drawings produced or the hours spent creating them.
What you can expect
Every project is different, but one thing remains constant: clear communication, thoughtful guidance and a clear understanding of where the design is heading.
You can expect one consistent point of contact throughout the process, from the initial brief through to delivery. StudioDeWynter takes responsibility for developing the design, coordinating information and working with the relevant suppliers and specialists, saving you the time and complexity of managing multiple parties yourself.
Once the design is established, appropriate manufacturers and specialists can be approached for quotation. StudioDeWynter can help compare proposals, negotiate where appropriate and advise on the best route forward, helping you achieve good value as well as a well-resolved result.
The aim is simple: to give the design the time and attention it deserves, while making the journey from design to delivery as clear and straightforward as possible.
Value & Benefits
StudioDeWynter brings together architectural interiors, whole-house design and specialist kitchen design through a multidisciplinary approach to spatial thinking, design development and technical coordination. Each project responds to its architectural and wider context, interpreting both the practical requirements and more nuanced aspirations of the client brief. We consider the bigger picture and the finer details at the same time, ensuring that individual design decisions contribute to a coherent whole.
This integrated approach seeks to minimise fragmented revisions, identify potential conflicts early and provide a coordinated design framework that supports the wider project team, helping to protect design integrity, programme and budget.
Time saved
Less time spent researching suppliers, comparing options and coordinating decisions. StudioDeWynter brings clarity and direction to what can otherwise become a fragmented process.
Commercial value
Preferential supplier rates where available, informed product choices and considered purchasing decisions that help make better use of the budget.
Confidence in the detail
Spatial planning, materials, lighting, services and installation interfaces considered together to reduce overlooked details, costly mistakes and avoidable changes later in the project.
A coherent result
Architecture, materials, furniture and practical requirements brought together in a unified design, rather than a collection of disconnected decisions.
A more manageable process
Clearer decisions, appropriate supplier and specialist connections, and coordinated design information. For architects, an additional design resource that can resolve defined interior elements while respecting the wider architectural intent.
