DESIGN SERVICES
We like to think that we simply help you to decide what you like; by positioning different options and ideas, the picture becomes clearer for you. Sometimes it only takes one short appointment to get you on the right track so that you are confident in your choices. And to confirm that it all works, we create a mood board so that you can appreciate how colours, fabrics and textures come together. Design is not just about how it looks, its also about how it works; our 3D visual graphics and renders will allow you to look into that room, and really understand how the finished design will look and work. Taking out the guess work and eliminating your risk.
YOUR NEPTUNE HOME
Our home design service is an easier, less overwhelming way to bring interior design into your home. You’ll have breadth and choice but not a daunting amount. You’ll have the timeless Neptune look, but with room to make it your own. And you’ll have one of our designers with you to make your home the best that it can be.
If you’re thinking of redecorating – be it one room, two rooms or ten – we’ve got all of the tools you’ll need in one place, ready to create your very own version of a Neptune home.
OUR HOME DESIGN SERVICE – HOW IT WORKS
1. IN-STORE WALK AND TALK
It all begins with some one-on-one time with one of our designers at your closest Neptune by Global Village store. Th is is where you’ll get to talk us through your ideas, wishes and wants. Our designer will take you through the collections, explain how the design service works and answer any early questions you might have. It’ll last approximately 60 minutes.
2. AT HOME DESIGN VISIT
If you want to go ahead, we’ll then come to your home to have an in-depth design session. Together, we’ll go over colour palettes, samples, textiles and layouts, and take measurements. When we head on our way, we’ll have a crystal-clear picture of what you want your room to be.
3. DESIGN PRESENTATION
If you want to go ahead, we’ll then come to your home to have an in-depth design session. Together, we’ll go over colour palettes, samples, textiles and layouts, and take measurements. When we head on our way, we’ll have a crystal-clear picture of what you want your room to be.
4. THE BIG DAY
We’ll be on our way to bring everything in one go rather than delivering in multiple batches. Our team will unwrap, assemble, and position your furniture, then take away all the packaging for recycling. The team will style your room for you so that, when you come in, all there is left for you to do is sit back and enjoy it.
AHEAD OF OUR FIRST CONVERSATION
To make the most of the time with your designer, try to bring along as much information as you can to our first conversation in your chosen Neptune by Global Village store. As you take us through all of your ideas, it’s so much easier for us to think through concepts when we’ve got a clear picture of
what your room looks like right now. Below is a list of things to bring along if you can. They’ll also help us prepare for your at-home design visit.
- Room plans. These could be anything from an architect’s drawings to a hand-sketched room plan. Try to include as many dimensions as you can, like window and door positioning, sill heights, ceiling and beam heights and any awkward nibs.
- Photographs of the current space. Try and include any of your favourite features in the room, and any you dislike.
- Inspiration images. Any format that works for you is good – from magazine cuttings to a Pinterest mood board.
“Having just completed a major house renovation project, the next challenge was to come up with interior designs that would work well, especially in our new open plan living area. Global Village staff were very knowledgeable and creative in putting together solutions that look great but still meet the practical needs to survive family living”
DESIGN TO LAST
One of the many wonderful traits of Neptune – which we like to emulate – is their design ethos. With Neptune and Global Village we believe in a design that will evolve and grow with you. Our lives move on rapidly and our needs and likes change. Our design needs to reflect life’s evolvement and not look like it got left behind.
Take for example the colour schemes introduced seasonally by Neptune. A new shade that sits beautifully with the existing palette. That allows you to introduce a new throw, lamp or cushions, giving your room a fresh lift yet sitting so comfortably within its overall design. Each season an addition complimenting the previous one. Its what our customers say “As the product ranges have been chosen to compliment each other in a relaxed way it was easy to build schemes step by step. As well as enabling me to spread out costs this incremental approach led to a less daunting experience as design decisions were also phased over time. I’m delighted with the results which include the incorporation of many “legacy” pieces such as my original sofa, also chosen from Global Village 10 years ago!”
Timeless in design, long lasting in quality. “We pay attention to trends but we try to transcend them. We’re not interested in come and go. We’re in it for the long haul”
