OFFICE FIT OUT

The Office Fit-Out Process

At Estilo Interiors, we believe that a successful office fit-out begins with a clear, collaborative, and strategic process. Every project is unique — shaped by your people, your business goals, and the culture you want to create. That’s why our process is designed to be transparent and engaging from start to finish, ensuring we deliver environments that not only look exceptional but perform exceptionally too.

Our process typically unfolds in four key stages:

1. Discovery & Brief Development

Every great design starts with understanding. During the initial discovery phase, we take the time to learn about your organisation — how you work, where you’re heading, and what your new workspace needs to achieve. We’ll carry out workplace audits, site surveys, and stakeholder interviews to gain a deep understanding of how your teams interact and what challenges the space must solve.

We also review the practical parameters: budgets, timescales, lease conditions, and technical requirements. This insight forms the foundation of a robust project brief that guides every stage that follows.

2. Design & Visualisation

With a clear brief established, our in-house design team gets to work bringing your future workspace to life. We explore space planning options to maximise the footprint, enhance collaboration zones, and improve flow. Once the layout is agreed, we develop 3D visuals and material palettes that reflect your brand identity and create a cohesive aesthetic.

At this stage, you’ll see how your space will look and feel — from the lighting and finishes right down to the furniture and fixtures. We consider every detail: circulation routes, acoustics, ergonomic furniture choices, and sustainability measures. The outcome is a fully costed design proposal that strikes the perfect balance between creativity and functionality.

3. Project Management & Delivery

When it comes to delivery, Estilo Interiors acts as your single point of contact, managing every aspect of the build and fit-out. Our experienced project managers coordinate the entire process, ensuring that works progress safely, efficiently, and in strict accordance with the agreed timeline and budget.

We handle procurement, compliance, health and safety, and liaison with landlords or building control. Our on-site teams are skilled, reliable, and accustomed to working in live environments where business continuity matters. Through regular updates and milestone reviews, we keep you informed every step of the way — giving you full confidence that your vision is being realised to the highest standard.

4. Handover & Aftercare

Once construction and installation are complete, our focus turns to handover and client satisfaction. We conduct thorough quality inspections to ensure every element meets our exacting standards before formally signing off. You’ll receive a full operations and maintenance manual, along with as-built drawings and certifications.

Our relationship doesn’t end at handover. We offer ongoing aftercare and support to help you settle into your new space and make adjustments as your needs evolve. Whether it’s reconfiguring areas for future growth or implementing additional technology, Estilo remains your trusted partner in maintaining a productive workplace.

Typical Project Timelines

Every fit-out project has its own rhythm, dictated by size, complexity, and site conditions. However, as a guide, smaller projects or refurbishments (up to 5,000 sq ft) can often be completed within 6–8 weeks, while larger design and build schemes (10,000–30,000 sq ft) typically range from 10–16 weeks.

Our early involvement often helps reduce overall timescales. By managing design and delivery under one roof, we can overlap key stages, streamline procurement, and prevent delays. Our teams are adept at working to tight deadlines — ensuring that quality never suffers, even when timeframes are challenging.
