About us

Our JIA story

It began when a young, ambitious couple started building their first nest, and questioned whether interior designer markups were reasonable at all.

How it started

Almost 20 quotations, and not one we could trust

Like all first-time homeowners, we sourced quotations everywhere. We collected almost 20 of them, yet couldn’t shortlist a single one, with good reasons.

So we took our time designing the whole house with the help of a 3D CAD drafter, deciding on tiles, colours, lighting and layout. Then we requested quotes for each trade: flooring, plumbing, ceiling and so on.

With 3D and 2D drawings to show, talking to contractors had never been easier, and they told us it made their jobs easier too.

What we stand for

A revolution for interior design

Combining the ambition every young couple has with today’s digital tools, we rethought the renovation process from the start.

  • Design before deposit

    You see your home in 2D and 3D before committing to any renovation contract.

  • Fixed, transparent fees

    One fixed fee for our work. No percentage of your renovation, no surprise charges.

  • No supplier commissions

    We take no cut from the suppliers we recommend, so our advice has no conflict of interest.

  • Your choice of builder

    Manage it yourself, hire our project manager, or take the design to any ID firm.

Nothing beats doing your own home

The whole journey was an amazing experience. Nothing satisfies you more than building your own home, even if it doesn’t turn out perfect.

Our approach is a flow that helps homeowners do the same: improve the renovation experience, reduce risks and save unnecessary costs.
