Space Planning

Professional Space Plans: Precise Site Surveys & Floor Plans

Space planning is a crucial element of interior design, focusing on the optimal arrangement of furniture, fixtures, and fittings within a space. This process goes beyond simple organisation; it examines flow, usage, height, proportion, and structure, ensuring all elements work together to create a comfortable and functional environment for the end user.

At the heart of space planning is an in-depth analysis of how the physical interior space in a home or commercial setting is used. It involves several steps, starting with understanding the purpose of the space and the daily activities of its occupants. Key considerations include traffic flow, access and safety, furniture layout, and storage needs.

  • The foundation of any successful interior design project begins with a comprehensive floor plan and a detailed site survey. Space planning is especially crucial for challenging layouts or smaller spaces that require strategic placement of furniture and fixtures. For example, L-shaped living rooms or compact restaurants and bars need meticulous planning to maximise functionality and seating capacity. Proper space planning ensures efficient use of every inch, creating a comfortable and seamless environment.

    Space planning enables clients to visualise the new layout and evaluate how furniture and access points will influence the overall design. Without it, the implementation of design concepts can lead to compromised spaces and potentially costly rework. Early-stage space planning provides a solid foundation for future alterations, ensuring that the project's fundamental planning principles are sound and adaptable to changing needs.

  • Our space planning process at KOBO 10 ensures your interior is expertly arranged for optimal functionality and aesthetics. Here’s how we do it:

    Every project starts with a discovery call to understand your requirements and build a brief based on the specific needs of your project and desired outcome.

    Our team conducts a thorough on-site survey, taking precise measurements to ensure complete accuracy. We also review and consider all elements such as electrical outlets, existing features, and any furniture, fixtures or fittings that need to be incorporated into the design.

    Using this detailed information, we create to-scale drawings of the space and develop a layout that meets the requirements of your brief, as outlined prior to the site survey.

    We will ensure that every aspect of your space is carefully considered and planned to create a functional, aesthetically pleasing environment that maximises the potential of the available area.

    Our team begins the research and development phase to design a scheme that aligns with your vision. This involves curating colours, materials, textures, and overall aesthetics that match your style and preferences. We create a detailed space plan indicating where items will be placed and how the room will flow and function. This step ensures that the layout maximises both functionality and visual appeal.

    Once the design scheme is approved, we curate options for furniture, fixtures, and equipment. Our selections aim to enhance the design while meeting your budget and quality expectations. To help you visualise the final design, we produce high-quality 3D renders of the space. These photorealistic images offer a clear picture of how the design elements come together.

    Throughout the project, we manage every aspect, including sourcing and coordinating with tradespeople. Our goal is to ensure the design is executed professionally and meets your standards. We oversee all logistics and procurement to keep the project on track and within budget. Once all items are ready for installation, we finalise the design and stage the space. This includes arranging furniture, installing fixtures and adding finishing touches to bring the design to life.
