FAQ

At Maison Épicée, we offer a complete and fully integrated suite of interior design services tailored to villa projects in Bali. Our approach is holistic: we manage every step from the first concept to the final decorative touch, ensuring a seamless experience and a result that aligns perfectly with your vision, lifestyle, and budget.

We begin with interior design and concept development, where we work closely with you to understand your aesthetic preferences, functional needs, and the atmosphere you want to create. Whether you’re aiming for a warm tropical retreat, a modern minimalist villa, or a refined boutique-hotel style space, we translate your ideas into a clear creative direction. This includes mood boards, color palettes, material suggestions, and inspirational references that set the tone for the entire project.

Next, we move into space planning, one of the most important steps in designing a functional and harmonious environment. We optimize the flow of each room, define furniture layouts, and ensure that every square meter is used efficiently. Our goal is always to enhance comfort, maximize natural light, and create a logic of movement that feels effortless and intuitive. For villas designed for rental, we also consider durability, guest comfort, and the practical needs of property management.

Another key part of our service is custom furniture design. Thanks to our network of skilled Balinese artisans and workshops, we create unique, tailor-made pieces that perfectly fit your space. From built-in shelving and kitchen cabinetry to bespoke sofas, beds, and outdoor furniture, we design every detail with both aesthetics and functionality in mind. This allows us to create coherent, original interiors that can’t be found anywhere else.

We also handle material and product sourcing, selecting finishes, textiles, lighting, décor items, and accessories that match your style and meet quality standards. Living and working in Bali allows us to collaborate directly with local craftsmen and suppliers, ensuring excellent value and the flexibility to personalize many elements. We can also integrate imported items and international brands when needed, depending on your preferences.

Throughout the entire journey, our team provides thorough project management. We coordinate with architects, builders, suppliers, and contractors to ensure everything runs smoothly and stays aligned with the design vision. We oversee production timelines, quality control, budget management, and installation logistics, giving you peace of mind and a single point of contact from beginning to end.

Finally, once all major elements are in place, we complete your project with final styling and décor, adding the finishing touches that bring the space to life artwork, lighting accents, linens, decorative objects, and plants. This stage transforms a beautiful design into a warm, inviting, and fully cohesive environment.

In short, we offer a comprehensive, turnkey service designed to make the entire process enjoyable, stress-free, and deeply personalized. Our mission is simple: to create spaces that feel beautiful, meaningful, and truly yours.

Our studio is based in Bali, but we also take on international projects depending on your needs. While Bali is the heart of our creative work and the place where we collaborate directly with local artisans and suppliers, our design expertise is not limited to the island. Many of our clients live abroad or own properties in other countries, and we are fully equipped to support them with remote design services that maintain the same level of quality, creativity, and attention to detail.

For projects outside of Bali, we provide a complete design-only service, which includes concept development, detailed floor plans, space planning, furniture layouts, mood boards, and 3D visualizations. These services allow you to fully understand and visualize the atmosphere, style, and layout of your future interior before starting any on-site work. Our remote approach is structured, clear, and highly collaborative, ensuring that distance never becomes an obstacle to creating a space that feels both beautiful and functional.

We begin with an in-depth exploration of your goals, lifestyle, and aesthetic preferences. Whether you’re aiming to redesign a home, refresh an apartment, or develop a hospitality project abroad, we tailor our design concepts to your environment, architectural constraints, and cultural context. Through video calls and shared online workspaces, we communicate closely at each step of the process, making it easy for you to review proposals, share feedback, and follow the evolution of the project.

Once the concept is approved, we move into technical planning, providing accurate layouts, measurements, and guidelines that can be shared with your local contractors, builders, or craftsmen. These documents are designed to ensure smooth execution on your side, giving your team everything they need to bring the project to life. Whether it’s lighting positioning, furniture placement, or suggestions for materials available in your region, our plans are crafted to be actionable and practical.

To help you fully envision the final result, we also provide realistic 3D renderings. These allow you to see how colors, textures, proportions, and décor elements work together in your space. The visuals become a valuable tool both for you and for the professionals executing the work on-site.

Because we do not handle sourcing, production, or installation outside of Bali, our focus in international projects is purely on the creative and conceptual aspect. This gives you full design clarity while letting you choose your own suppliers and contractors locally. It also ensures your project remains adaptable to local building codes, available materials, and logistical constraints.

Whether your property is in Europe, Asia, Australia, or elsewhere, our goal remains the same: to help you craft a cohesive, thoughtful, and inspiring interior. If you’re considering working with us on a project outside of Bali, feel free to contact us. We’ll be happy to discuss your location, your goals, and how our remote design services can support your vision.

Our approach follows five clear steps designed to make your project smooth, enjoyable, and fully tailored to your needs. Over time, we’ve refined a workflow that blends creativity, structure, and transparent communication, ensuring that every stage from the first conversation to the final styling unfolds seamlessly. Here’s what you can expect when working with us.

1. Listening to your needs and lifestyle

Every project begins with understanding you. We take the time to learn about your daily habits, aesthetic preferences, the purpose of your property, and the atmosphere you want to create. Whether your villa is meant for personal living, short-term rentals, or investment, we adapt our approach accordingly. This stage includes discussions, inspiration sharing, and an in-depth review of your goals, constraints, budget, and timeline. It sets the foundation for everything that follows and ensures the design feels meaningful, functional, and uniquely yours.

2. Designing creative concepts tailored to you

Once we have a clear understanding of your vision, we begin crafting the creative direction. This includes mood boards, color palettes, material suggestions, and thematic inspirations that set the tone for the project. You’ll get a clear sense of the story we’re building for your space whether it’s contemporary tropical, warm minimalism, organic modern, or something completely custom. We refine these concepts together until they perfectly reflect your taste and the emotional experience you want to create within the villa.

3. Sourcing materials, furniture, and décor

After solidifying the concept, we move into the sourcing phase. This is where ideas become concrete. Our team selects materials, finishes, lighting, textiles, furniture, and décor pieces that match the aesthetic direction and practical needs of the project. In Bali, we collaborate closely with local workshops and artisans who specialize in custom furniture, natural materials, and handcrafted décor. This allows us to ensure quality, coherence, and authenticity in every detail. We also balance durability and maintenance needs especially for rental villas to ensure that the space remains beautiful over time. The result is a curated selection that aligns perfectly with your style and the mood of your property.

4. Managing construction and fabrication

To bring the design to life, we oversee the production and fabrication of custom pieces as well as the implementation of materials. We coordinate with builders, contractors, and artisans, ensuring that timelines, budgets, and quality expectations are respected. Our team conducts regular site visits, monitors progress, and makes sure each detail remains consistent with the design vision. This hands-on project management removes stress from the process and guarantees that execution stays aligned with the concept you approved.

5. Styling and finishing for a turnkey result

The final step is where your villa truly comes alive. We handle the entire styling process arranging furnishings, placing décor, installing lighting fixtures, selecting artwork, and adding subtle finishing touches that create a cohesive and inviting atmosphere. This is the moment when the space transforms from a construction site into a warm, livable, and beautifully curated home. The goal is simple: a turnkey result where every detail feels intentional and effortlessly harmonious.

Together, these five steps create a clear, structured, and enjoyable journey guiding your project from initial idea to the final, polished space you’ve envisioned.

The duration of a project can vary depending on several factors, including its size, complexity, and the level of customization required. While every villa and every client is unique, most full renovation or furnishing projects take between 3 to 6 months from the initial consultation to final styling. However, we always provide a clear, personalized timeline at the beginning so you know exactly what to expect. Here’s how the timing typically breaks down.

First, the design phase usually takes between two to six weeks, depending on how quickly decisions are made and how many revisions are needed. During this stage, we develop the creative concept, prepare mood boards, define the color palette and style direction, and work on space planning and furniture layouts. This part of the process is collaborative, since your feedback is essential to ensure the design aligns with your lifestyle and vision. If the project requires technical drawings or 3D renderings, additional time may be added, though we work efficiently to keep everything moving forward.

Next comes the sourcing and material selection phase. For projects in Bali, this includes visiting workshops, choosing materials, reviewing samples, and coordinating custom furniture production. This stage typically overlaps with project management and construction, but it still requires dedicated time usually between two and four weeks. The timeline may vary depending on how unique or specialized your selections are. Custom-made pieces or unusual materials may require additional production preparation.

The construction and fabrication stage is generally the most time-consuming. For full renovations, this period can last anywhere from eight to sixteen weeks, depending on the scope of work. Factors such as structural changes, plumbing or electrical upgrades, and custom furniture production can influence the duration. For furnishing-only projects, the timeline is often shorter, since the main focus is on ordering, production, and delivery rather than structural work. Our team manages the coordination and communication with all contractors to make sure everything stays on schedule and meets the expected quality standards.

Once construction is completed and all furniture pieces are ready, we move into the installation and styling phase, which typically takes one to two weeks. This is when the villa truly comes together furniture is placed, lighting is installed, artwork is hung, and every detail is curated to create a cohesive atmosphere. It’s the final transformation step that brings warmth, personality, and life to the space.

Throughout the entire journey, we provide clear updates so you’re always aware of progress, milestones, and next steps. If any adjustments are necessary due to material availability, weather conditions, or construction challenges, we communicate them promptly and manage solutions proactively.

While the typical timeframe is 3 to 6 months, we understand that every client has different deadlines some need an accelerated schedule for rental purposes, others prefer a slower pace to refine each detail. Whatever your situation, our goal is to deliver a beautiful, functional, and fully finished space within a realistic and transparent timeline.

If you share more about your specific project, we’ll be happy to provide a tailored estimate.

Yes, we create custom-made furniture, and it’s one of the aspects that truly sets our work apart. Collaborating with highly skilled local and international artisans allows us to design unique, tailor-made pieces that perfectly match your space, your lifestyle, and the overall aesthetic direction of your project. Custom furniture is more than just a design choice it’s a way to achieve harmony, precision, and character in every room.

When we design custom pieces, the process begins with understanding your needs. We look at the way you live, how you use the space, and what style resonates with you. Whether you need a built-in TV console, a perfectly sized dining table, a wardrobe optimized for storage, or a luxurious outdoor lounge set, we create designs that blend function and beauty. This ensures that each piece feels intentional, fits seamlessly into your interior, and enhances the overall experience of the space.

The design phase is collaborative and creative. We start by sketching concepts, defining shapes, proportions, and materials. We then refine the design until it aligns perfectly with your vision. Every detail matters edges, finishes, joints, textures, and dimensions are thoughtfully considered to ensure that the final piece is not only aesthetically pleasing but also practical and durable. Because everything is tailor-made, you’re never limited to standard sizes or mass-produced options. Instead, you receive furniture that truly reflects your taste and elevates your home.

In Bali, we are fortunate to work with exceptionally talented artisans who excel in woodwork, metalwork, upholstery, rattan weaving, and natural materials. These craftsmen bring our designs to life with meticulous attention to detail and a deep respect for traditional techniques. Their expertise allows us to explore refined finishes, organic textures, and premium craftsmanship that cannot be easily replicated by factory-made furniture.

For clients outside of Bali, while we do not ship custom pieces internationally, we can still design bespoke furniture as part of our design-only service. In these cases, we prepare detailed furniture drawings and specifications that you can pass on to your local craftsmen or suppliers. This ensures that you can still enjoy tailor-made design, even if fabrication takes place in another country. Our technical documents are clear, precise, and created to make production smooth and accurate wherever it is executed.

One of the major benefits of custom-made furniture is the ability to create a cohesive, well-balanced interior. Instead of trying to match different store-bought items, we craft a unified collection that complements your architecture, layout, and color palette. This harmony is one of the reasons custom furniture gives a space such a refined and elevated feel.

Whether you're designing a villa from scratch or transforming an existing space, our custom pieces help create a unique identity for your interior something timeless, personal, and made specifically for you. If you have a vision in mind or a specific piece you’d love to create, we’re always excited to design something truly special.

Absolutely. At Maison Épicée, we understand that every client’s needs are unique, and not every project requires a full renovation. Many of our clients approach us specifically for decoration only services, seeking to refresh or elevate their space without undertaking structural changes or major construction work. Whether it’s a villa, apartment, or holiday property, we offer flexible services that can be tailored to your requirements, from simple consultation to full-scale styling.

For decoration only projects, our process begins with a thorough understanding of your space and your goals. We take the time to learn about your lifestyle, preferences, and the atmosphere you wish to create. We also evaluate the existing architecture, layout, and materials so that our design complements what is already in place. This ensures that the end result feels harmonious and intentional, rather than forced or disconnected from the character of your property.

Once we understand your needs, we move into the creative design phase. This includes selecting color palettes, textures, materials, and furniture arrangements that suit your vision. We create mood boards, sketches, and 3D renderings if needed, so you can clearly visualize how the space will come together. Even without renovation, this phase allows us to make informed decisions about furniture placement, lighting, décor accents, and the overall flow of the rooms.

Our decor consultation can take several forms, depending on your preference. Some clients prefer guidance on furniture, artwork, lighting, and accessories, leaving the shopping and installation to themselves. Others opt for a more comprehensive approach, where we source and select everything for them, from bespoke furniture pieces to curated décor items. Our extensive network of artisans, suppliers, and showrooms in Bali allows us to offer a wide variety of high-quality and unique products that elevate the interior without altering the structure.

We also handle styling and finishing touches, which can make a dramatic difference even in existing spaces. This includes arranging furniture, hanging artwork, placing decorative objects, selecting textiles, and incorporating plants or natural elements to bring warmth and personality to each room. These finishing touches are often what transform a house into a home, making the interior feel polished, cohesive, and reflective of your personal taste.

For clients outside of Bali, we can provide a remote decoration service. Using detailed plans, 3D visualizations, and curated mood boards, we guide you through decorating your space from anywhere in the world. You can implement the suggestions with local suppliers, ensuring that your property still benefits from our expertise while respecting your location and resources.

Ultimately, hiring us for decoration only projects offers flexibility, creativity, and professional guidance without the commitment or complexity of renovation. Our goal is to enhance your space, create harmony and beauty, and ensure that every corner reflects your style and lifestyle. Whether you want a subtle refresh, a seasonal update, or a complete interior transformation without construction, Maison Épicée can tailor our services to meet your needs and deliver results that feel thoughtful, personalized, and luxurious.
