We design spaces from construction through to the very last aesthetic detail.
Great interiors are not created by treating architecture, materials, lighting, furniture, and decoration as separate decisions. REGARD approaches them as parts of one composition, considering how a space will function, how it will feel, and how it will be lived in.
By becoming involved early in the process, we can help shape the space itself—not simply what goes into it. From spatial planning and architectural details to cabinetry, lighting, materials, furnishings, and the final objects, every element is considered in relation to the whole.
We are most effective when we guide a project from beginning to end.
Phase 1 — Discovery & Vision
Every project begins with a conversation.
We take the time to understand how you live, what you are drawn to, what isn't working, and what you hope the project will become. We discuss the scope, priorities, budget, timing, and the professionals who may need to be involved.
From there, we establish a clear direction for the project and define the best path forward.
Phase 2: Design
Space Planning We study the architecture, circulation, proportions, and functionality of each space to make the most of its potential. Floor plans are developed to create a natural flow and a thoughtful relationship between rooms, furniture, and the way the home is used.
Materials, Color & Finishes Materials establish much of the character and atmosphere of an interior. Drawing on an extensive network of showrooms, suppliers, artisans, and makers, we develop combinations of materials, colors, textures, and finishes that are distinctive, cohesive, and appropriate to the project.
Custom Furniture & Cabinetery When the right piece does not exist, we design it. REGARD develops custom furniture, built-ins, cabinetry, and architectural elements in collaboration with skilled craftspeople and fabricators, allowing pieces to be tailored precisely to the space and to the people who live there.
Lighting Lighting is considered from the beginning, not added at the end. We study natural and architectural light alongside decorative fixtures to create atmosphere, highlight materials and architectural features, and provide the appropriate light for everyday life.
Furniture, Textiles and Decorative Objects Furniture, rugs, window treatments, textiles, art, and objects complete the composition. Pieces may be newly sourced, custom designed, vintage, or already owned by the client. The goal is not simply to fill a room, but to create an interior that feels collected, personal, and complete.
Phase 3: Implementation & Project Management
A strong design depends on equally thoughtful execution.
REGARD remains closely involved as the design moves from drawings and specifications into construction, fabrication, purchasing, and installation. We coordinate with contractors, builders, electricians, painters, fabricators, installers, and other specialists to resolve details and help maintain the integrity of the design throughout the process.
We oversee purchasing and custom orders, review progress, address questions as they arise, and coordinate the many moving parts leading to installation.
The project concludes with the final layer—furniture, lighting, textiles, art, and objects—bringing together everything developed from the earliest plans to the last detail.
