FF&E Design and Specification

Each interior concept is developed to meet with needs and desires of each client and the individual project. We work with you to tailor the design to your aesthetic desires and not fit into a pre-determined solution. We pride ourselves on producing unique, individualized designs that fit the personality of each client and exceed the client’s and public’s expectations.

We begin by talking with you and narrowing down your design style and aesthetic goals, along with the functionality and needs of the space.  We’ll come up with a visual narrative that we’ll work with you on for the interior design that will serve as the driving factor in all design decisions moving forward on the project.

Once we have our visual narrative set, we can start diving into the functional needs of the space.  We will need to know how everything works now and intends to perform in the new design, this is the investigation phase.

The investigation in the programming phase will help us begin space planning with facts and actual sizes of what you need for the space to perform for you day to day. We will work with you to revise options until we agree on a direction to develop further.

In design development, we take our space plan and start to develop how everything is actually going to be built. We look at details of materials working together, furniture and millwork installations, lighting coordination, and more. This leads to construction documents where we formally document all of these details and instructions for a contractor to build.

Construction Administration is critical to the success of the project. We will be on site to make sure that the intentions of the design are met. We meet regularly with the contractor and you to check progress and verify material procurement and installation.

Our team members bring their expertise in the built environment or site assessment when investigating properties or land for risks and opportunities. 

For us, cost control starts on a project’s first day. We realize design decisions we make have a significant impact on the resources our clients have available for their projects, and this is a responsibility we take seriously.

Whether an existing structure or undeveloped land, our team can conduct an initial study to determine if the conditions met our clients’ needs.

We have been committed to sustainable, energy-efficient design strategies since our firm’s founding in 1973. We utilize energy-efficient systems and strategies such as natural ventilation, proper solar orientation, natural lighting and greywater systems in our projects.

We have the in-house capability to develop three-dimensional presentation graphics, renderings, animations and virtual reality models with headsets to clearly communicate the design to our clients and their constituent groups. We also maintain the in-house capability to develop physical models, traditional renderings, concept sketches and material studies using traditional media such as marker, watercolor, and pen and ink.

During the procurement process, we provide weekly updates to you on lead times, payments, freight costs, etc. through detailed spreadsheets prepared by our procurement coordinator. GH2 also oversees installation from beginning to end. We can be on-site for installation, noting damage or items that have not been delivered, and we work to get the damage repaired and the missing items to you.

Before finalizing specifications for furniture, fixtures, and equipment, we can prepare concept boards for you with different options. Once the specs are finalized, we are also able to handle procurement. Our interior design team will put together a bid packet and distribute this to different manufacturers. Once the multiple bids are received, we then track and organize these and present them to you in a clear and concise manner.
