inherent

We craft useful, human, beautiful interiors through our understanding of spatial and decorative design, as well as the structural and technical aspects of buildings and spaces. We do conceptual and detailed design. We source and supply all aspects of interiors.  We deal with it all, so you can relax.  

We like to provide holistic solutions, For example, having understood you and your needs, we may suggest a design that removes walls and adds windows to improve the usability of the space, creating a healthier environment, and a sense of peace and calm. Holistic solutions consider the whole problem and not just a part of it.  Visit our website to learn more about us: inherent.co.nz.

Residential

Good residential interiors reflect their owners, provide a usable, healing, healthy environment, and give joy. Achieving this on your own can be a little daunting!

We invest time at the beginning of the process to really understand your needs and your aesthetic, then we provide design options that exceed your expectations.

Once we have a clear direction we take care of the design, research, sourcing, pricing and technical drawing work for the entire project.

We source hard-to-find elements that make your interior stand apart, as well as designing bespoke items.

From initial inception to final installation we will oversee the project to ensure it is completed on time and to the highest standards - allowing you the freedom to enjoy the process, confident in the final outcome.

Commercial

For commercial interiors we spend time up-front really understanding the tasks performed in the space. A great commercial interior improves productivity, creates happier occupants, and accurately reflects the company brand. It needs to have high utility, while also encouraging people to enter and engage with it.

We understand the time and budget constraints particular to commercial spaces - from offices to large corporate sites, including hospitality, retail spaces, and exhibition stands.

Our goal with commercial projects is to improve your business through the creation of a more effective interior that both encourages wellness and inspires its occupants.

We provide complete design services for your commercial space as well as fit-out supervision. Working with you to supply furniture, fittings, and equipment (FF&E)  - including lighting, joinery and flooring. As well as specifying and procuring operating supplies and equipment (OS&E).

We manage the design on your behalf and work closely with the main contractor to ensure all trades co-ordinate their work and to ensure clear and concise communication.

We are focused on delivering on time and within budget, providing updates for your peace of mind.

A new interior fit-out is stressful and time-consuming, we run it all so you can get back to doing what you do best - your business.

Development

Our interior design services add value to your development.

With both new builds and renovations, we are able to maximise your profit by improving the usability and desirability of your project for potential purchasers. 

We work with you to identify your customer’s expectations, and to then exceed them, so that your development sells more quickly, and your buyers are happier.

Inherent can design and furnish your showhome/apartment, or provide detailed concepts and vision boards for selling off plans. Both will allow buyers to truly see the potential of your project, and to imagine themselves and their families within your spaces.

Working within your budget is key, and we bring all our supply and purchasing contacts into play on your behalf.  We are experienced at liaising with architects, builders, and sub-trades – and with the intricacies of building consents, contracts, and council sign-offs.

Interior design, especially when applied at the earliest stages of a project, provides a great Return on Investment – enhancing value by allowing clients to fully envision your building’s potential
