Questions
What services do you offer?
We offer end-to-end project management services, including space planning, concept development, layout design, color and material selection, lighting design, furniture and décor selection, custom design solutions, and project coordination with optimized capex investment. Our services can be tailored to full turnkey projects or specific design consultations based on your needs. Our services extend to F & B, corporate offices, retail spaces and health care.
How we approach?
The process typically begins with an initial consultation to understand your requirements, style, and budget. This is followed by concept development, space planning, and design proposals. Once the design is approved, we move into detailed drawings, material selection, and execution support, ensuring the final result aligns with the approved vision.
Do I need to have a large budget to hire your service?
Not necessarily. We work with a wide range of budgets and help clients make informed decisions to meet the expectations. We can help to avoid costly mistakes, prioritize spending, and create impactful results even with limited budgets.
Do I need to procure new inventory, furniture and décor or use existing so that I can save on my Capex investment?
No. We can integrate your existing inventory, furniture and décor into the new design with little bit of refurbishment wherever possible. This approach helps maintain continuity, reduce costs, and preserve items that have functional or emotional value.
How do I get started with a consultation or quote?
You can get started by contacting us through our website, phone, or email to schedule an initial consultation. During this discussion, we understand your requirements and provide guidance on the next steps, including timelines, scope, and a customized quote.
How long does a typical interior design project take?
The timeline depends on the size and complexity of the project. Smaller residential projects may take a few weeks, while larger or more detailed projects can take several months. Factors such as approvals, material availability, and execution scope also influence the overall duration.
Do i need to engage separate consultant for Design & separate consultant for MEP or you have expertise?
We are entirely flexible regarding the design development. We are happy to collaborate with any consultant you may already have in mind. Alternatively, we can offer a complete, integrated package through our own empanelled consultants, who work closely with us to ensure high-quality delivery at a very competitive cost.
What makes VAP different from other companies ?
Our approach combines thoughtful design, practical functionality, and clear communication. We focus on understanding how spaces are actually used, not just how they look. Attention to detail, transparency in the process, and designs that balance aesthetics with long-term usability set us apart.
Can you help with good GC vendor’s who has past experience working with quality finish & within timeline?
Yes, we maintain a robust network of over 100 vetted turnkey partners, categorized by their specific technical expertise. This allow us to align the right team with your project’s unique demands: some are optimized for high-speed delivery, others for rigorous quality control, and a select group is dedicated exclusively to luxury finishes. Furthermore, we segment our partners by sector expertise—ensuring that projects involving complex ‘wet work’ like restaurants or specialized retail layouts are handled by contractors who specialize in those specific environments.
Can we hire you as a consultant for our expansion?
Absolutely! We can partner with you to provide a complete consultancy package—from Design and MEP to dedicated Project Management and Stage-wise Audits. We’ve been providing this end-to-end support for Subko and are currently in talks with a few more brands regarding their India expansion plans. We’d love to bring that same level of consistency and oversight to your facilities.
