How It Works

Preparation is key. Plan, plan and plan again. You can never go too far when it comes to detailing every element of a project. Designs at these levels are life choices that have the power to affect everyday living and ultimately create something that transpires a well made cabinet or nicely painted room. Like any good story there has to be a concept, evolution of character and a denouement. It is in the unravelling of the story that leaves someone with the space they can enjoy and leave a positive feeling that stands the test of time.

Edward uses tools such as Pinterest which is a great way of communicating ideas and maintaining a conversation with the client. The best ideas are cultivated to fruition rather than just being landed upon. Most design processes tend to be organic.

Design Service

Edward himself can provide design solutions for specific interior spaces – kitchens, bathrooms, offices or living areas – through to the renovation of entire properties.

This may involve space planning and the remodelling of a room or a building; or a creative refurbishment that expresses the client’s personality and lifestyle. Integrated lighting, colour and furniture schemes are key to this concept-to-completion design service. Seago will recommend the materials and techniques best suited to guaranteeing great design at every level.

project management

Edward organises and oversees every contract from start to finish, to keep it on schedule and on budget. He can also provide a full project management service, to include supervising the work of any other contractors involved in the project.

One of our client’s sums up Edward’s level of service- “His technical competence and vast experience of all aspects of construction and decoration make him an excellent problem solver, with an incomparable eye for detail. He will identify and resolve any difficulties in a calm, fast and professional manner, and maintain regular contact with the client as a project progresses.”
