Start with the rooms
List every space, its intended use and who will approve the design. Measured floor plans are more useful than visual references alone.
Create an item schedule
Record the item name, room, quantity, desired dimensions and reference image. Distinguish confirmed requirements from options still under discussion.
Define materials carefully
Describe the visual direction, then ask for composition, construction, care and performance details. A photograph cannot verify a material specification.
Clarify the delivery scope
Identify the destination, access restrictions, installation responsibility and any phasing requirements. Agree the required documentation and acceptance checks.
Keep approvals traceable
Record the approved drawings, samples and changes in one schedule. A shared reference reduces ambiguity during quotation and order confirmation.
