SERVICES

Choosing the right service depends on the stage of your project and the level of design support you’re looking for. If you’re unsure where your project fits, simply get in touch via our enquiry form and share a few details about your project. From there, we can discuss the most suitable service, with the final scope confirmed following your Design Consultation based on your project needs, budget, timeframe and level of support required.

The earlier, the better. We begin working together in the early planning or pre-construction stage to ensure design details are considered from the start. If your project is already underway, don’t worry - support is still available with services tailored to your project stage.

During the initial stages, we encourage your involvement as we develop your design brief. From there, it’s completely up to you. We tailor the process to your preferences - some clients love being hands on, while others prefer to step back and let us take the lead. Either way, we keep you informed at key points to ensure the final outcome aligns with your vision.

It’s natural to feel unsure at this stage. Think about any questions you have and write them down. Inspiration photos are always helpful! We highly recommend using Pinterest to put together a board of all your ideas. If you're unsure where to start, don’t worry - this will be one of the first steps once your project begins. No need to have everything figured out, that’s what we’re here for!

The design timeline will vary depending on the scope and complexity of your project. As a general guide, Fixtures & Finishes projects are typically completed within 4-6 weeks, while Full Interior Design projects generally take 8–16 weeks. Interior Styling projects typically take 4–8 weeks.

Factors such as client approvals, revisions, supplier lead times, and trade availability may influence the overall timeline. If you’re working towards a specific deadline, we’ll discuss this from the start and do our best to keep the project on track. 

Of course! Whether you're just around the corner or on the other side of Australia, we're here to help. Through video calls, digital presentations and our online client portal, you'll receive the same personalised support and carefully considered design experience every step of the way.

We just ask you to provide a few additional details, including photos of your space, any existing plans and some key measurements, so we can get to know your home just as if we were there in person.

Where procurement is part of your service, you’ll get access to select trade and supplier pricing - one of the little perks of working with a designer! Where available, we’ll always pass those savings on to you.

Every space we design is centred around you. While we bring a refined and considered design approach, the outcome is never about applying a fixed style. It’s about understanding how you live, how you want to feel in your home, and what truly resonates with you.

We focus on creating spaces that feel intentional and personal by layering in your personality, lifestyle and the details that light you up. The result is a home that feels like a true extension of you.

Think of By Marney Studio as an extension of your team.

We collaborate with builders to provide a seamless selections experience that complements the construction process. From fixtures and finishes to interior design guidance, we help clients navigate key decisions with confidence, documenting every selection in a comprehensive schedule to support an efficient build.

Every project is unique, so your design investment depends on the level of support you need, the size and complexity of your project, and the services required.

Following your design consultation, you'll receive a personalised proposal with a fixed fee tailored to your project. We also like to understand your design budget from the beginning, allowing us to recommend the most suitable level of support and become a seamless extension of your project from day one.

Our Designer On Demand offering is a little different, with set session packages and upfront pricing available for specific design needs.

Depending on the size and scope of your project, payments are structured with an initial deposit to secure your booking, followed by staged payments at key points throughout the design process. Your personalised proposal will outline the payment schedule before your project begins.
