Frequently Asked Questions
Planning a new study or entertaining area often comes with plenty of questions, and we’re here to make the process as clear and stress-free as possible. Below are answers to some of the most common things our clients ask when starting their journey.
Can you build in awkward or unused corners of my home?
Yes. We specialise in custom cabinetry and can turn even tight or sloped areas into productive, well-fitted spaces.
How much space do I need for a home office or library?
We can build everything from full rooms to under-stair studies. It depends on your goals, but we can help you make the most of what you’ve got.
Do you provide desks and furniture, or just built-in cabinetry?
We focus on built-in cabinetry and shelving, but we can also create integrated desks or work with your preferred furniture. You should purchase your own standalone styling furniture during or after the building works are completed – for example chair, lounges, side or coffee tables etc.
Can I use my home office as a guest room too?
Absolutely. We can incorporate a wall bed or convertible bench to create a multi-functional space.
What features should I include for a productive work-from-home setup?
Consider storage, lighting, cable management, and acoustics. We’ll guide you through every detail based on how you work. We can organize interior designers to further support you with detailed space planning if required.
Do you install lighting and power points?
Yes. We coordinate with qualified electricians to ensure your workspace is properly lit, powered and has any ethernet or internet cabling as well.
What’s the difference between a study nook and a full office?
A study nook is a smaller space, often built into a hallway or living area. A full office is a separate room or more substantial build, typically with added storage and privacy. A study nook may be more suitable for adjoining a kitchen or within a child or guest bedroom area.
Can you match the design to the rest of my home?
Yes. Whether your home is modern, traditional, or Queenslander style, we’ll ensure your office, game room or library feels cohesive.
How long does a home office or library renovation take?
The duration of the project will depend on its complexity as well as any custom materials you are seeking to order. Lead time on cabinetry does not usually cause a delay as our team is holistically speedy in our work from start to finish.
Can I continue living in my home while the renovations are underway?
We only commence building when we are ready to go to minimise disruption to your usual routine. You can continue living in your home if this is a standalone office/library/game room renovation only. If this is a part of a whole house renovation, then you may not have property access.
