Interior Architects approach design from a holistic direction, intertwining an in-depth understanding of construction methodologies, with human centric spatial design, and theoretical premise to inform new typologies of space. At their core is a focus on the sustainable and adaptive reuse of space across various scales, reducing and minimizing carbon footprints an extending the life of structures beyond their original life.

A common question we are asked is: Who do I need and what can they do?

Put simply, an Architect’s primary focus is designing the external envelope of a building in response to site conditions, and cultural ties which informs the internal layout and programs of spaces, where Interior Designer’s curate considered spatial experiences that tie into the built form and surrounding site.

Interior Architecture is a highly specialized discipline, that overlaps with both roles whilst bridging a stronger connection between both respective disciplines.

The earlier the better. Approaching a project with a strong foundation and direction is vital. In order to achieve this, we prefer to collaborate with all professionals involved in order to secure a strong outcome as early as possible. We work seamlessly with consultants to ensure all details are integrated no matter the scale or complexity whilst ensuring a reasonable and efficient time frame.

Our process is summarized into four key phases: Initial concept (IC), Design Development (DD), Construction Documentation (CD) and Construction Admin (CA).

In each phase we produce specific deliverables, that are all uniquely tailored to your project, ensuring a successful outcome irrespective of scale or complexity. Contact us for a friendly chat about how we can help expedite your projects success.

This is often responded to with: “How long is a piece of string?”.

Design is a profession and service that has objective and definite answer, after all we are all uniquely individual and so are our perceptions. In saying this, what is required of our practice differs from each and every client and project.

Ponder Studio is devoted to a client-centric journey and the efficient execution + delivery of every project. We do this by inquisitively asking all the right questions, using intelligent problem solving to extract key info and by adapting unique industry-specific skills sets to help our clients in finding where to cut the string.

Firstly, we recommend you have at a look at our services to see what exactly you require our help with then contact us so we can help guide you on your journey.

Referring again to: “How long is a piece of string?”, the length of our service is specific to each project and the required details, deliverables & timeframes set by our clients.

Typically, we work within a timeframe of 6 weeks to 12 weeks for most residential projects and 1 to 6 weeks for most commercial projects, ultimately varying on the complexity of the project that we are engaged in and size of the scope.

During the early stages of our journey with you we’ll provide a project-specific timeframe for your project.
