How It Works

Five stages, no surprises.

A clear, documented process with transparent budget management, so you always know what happens next.

01

Consultation

A complimentary consultation with Brian Woulfe, at your property or our studio. We listen to how you live, establish scope, programme and investment level, then set out a proposal.

02

Concept

Mood direction, spatial strategy, material palettes and early sketch layouts. Presented in person, so finishes can be seen and handled before anything is committed.

03

Detailed Design

Technical drawings, bespoke joinery, lighting and AV schemes, full FF&E schedules. Everything coordinated with the architect, contractor and consultants.

04

Procurement

We order, track and inspect, manage lead times and deal with makers directly, with transparent budget management throughout.

05

Installation

A co-ordinated installation. We dress the house down to the books, the linen and the flowers, then hand you the keys to a finished home.

With a global reputation for excellence, Irish-led studio Designed by Woulfe is an ideal choice for luxury interior design in Dublin’s Donnybrook district. We’d be delighted to chat further about your project. Below are some commonly asked questions. Please get in touch if you’d like a more personalised response.

We start by getting to know you - the essential first step in ensuring that our design reflects your vision and the way you want to live. We want to know what fantastic design looks like for you. We’ll plan your project right down to the last detail, and share everything with you along the way. Our aim is to create a result that surpasses your own expectations and that you’ll love for years to come.

We pride ourselves on doing project management incredibly well. It’s essential to delivering the quality and standard of result we’re known for. We’ve had more than a decade of experience working on large and complex design projects all over the world. We can plan everything from design through to completion and will make sure that timescales are adhered to, the budget is followed, and that everything runs smoothly. Our meticulous attention to detail and unrivalled customer service are among our core brand values - they’re part of who we are.

Absolutely - we’re not a studio with a set style that’s simply repeated from project to project. Our role as designers is to create something that’s tailored to your tastes and lifestyle. If you’re not sure what it is that you want, we’ll take time to get to know what appeals to you, and what you feel you need to live well. We can suggest ideas and work together to create something that resonates with you on every level.

Sourcing furniture and accessories is one of our favourite aspects of the job. We especially love supporting you in choosing up and coming artists to showcase in your home. We work with some incredible furniture makers and artists and are passionate about sourcing one-of-a-kind items that clients love. These finishing touches are key to creating the interesting, textured finish that makes a house feel like a home.

We have a wealth of experience working on high-end properties across the globe. We have an extensive network of overseas partners who share our impossibly high standards and values. They work closely with us to create superior designs. We make a point of getting to know how local properties are built, and we make sure to incorporate as many local, sustainable materials as possible. This creates a home that’s in harmony with the surrounding area, no matter where it is in the world.
