How We Work

From brief to
handover — five steps
of complete care

We believe great results come from a great process. Every project at SHADISPAZIO follows a structured five-step journey — built to give you clarity, confidence, and the finished space you envisioned.

We don't just design and disappear. Our team remains involved from first conversation to the day we hand you the keys — and we don't consider a project complete until every detail is exactly as it should be.

01

Discovery
& Brief

We listen to your vision, study the space, understand your budget and timeline. No assumptions — every project starts with real conversation.

We visit the site, ask the right questions, and build a project brief that captures exactly what success looks like for you.

02

Concept
Design

Moodboards, spatial layouts, material palettes, and 3D visualisations. You see your space before a single nail is driven.

We present multiple design directions and refine until the concept feels completely right. Nothing moves forward without your sign-off.

03

Design
Development

Technical drawings, furniture specifications, joinery details, and supplier coordination. Every component resolved before production begins.

This is where precision matters most. We leave nothing ambiguous before we move into manufacturing.

04

Production

In-house manufacturing by our skilled craftsmen. Custom solid wood furniture and joinery built to our own standards — not outsourced.

You receive regular production updates with photos. No surprises on delivery day.

05

Installation

Our team installs everything. We don't leave until every surface, shelf, and corner is exactly as designed.

The handover is the moment we've been working toward. We walk through every room with you to make sure the space is exactly what was promised.

In Every Project

We don't just design.
We build.

The difference between Shade and a typical design studio is that we manufacture what we design. Our in-house workshop produces every piece of custom furniture and joinery — which means quality is never left to a third party.

Why Choose Shade

What makes our process
different

01

We make what we design

Our designs are never handed off to unknown manufacturers. Every piece of joinery and custom furniture is produced in our own workshop, to our own standards.

02

Transparent timelines

We give you a realistic schedule from day one and stick to it. No last-minute delays, no cost surprises. Our reputation depends on delivering what we promise.

03

Hands-on leadership

Co-director Dina Istova is a practicing interior designer with 20+ years of experience. Your project is never delegated to a junior team — leadership stays involved throughout.
