Exit Survey
 
 
We are a young emerging design studio inviting you to participate in our survey about interior design and lighting design services. In this survey, approximately 50 people will be asked to complete a survey that asks questions about your experiences with and perceptions of the industry including value of services and price points. It will take approximately 3 minutes to complete the questionnaire.

Your participation in this study is completely voluntary. There are no foreseeable risks associated with this project. However, if you feel uncomfortable answering any questions, you can withdraw from the survey at any point. It is very important for us to learn your opinions so we may improve our services.

As interior/lighting designers, our job is to work with you to ascertain a brief and realise a vision for your home or business, either when renovating an existing space, or in proposal for a new space. Our scope of work can span:
- The design of structural alterations to improve spatial functionality
- Custom design of cabinetry, furniture and lighting solutions
- Formulation of an aesthetic concept for the space over-arching to specification of materials and finishes, fittings and fixtures, furniture and lighting
- Communication with consultants, engineers, architects and trades on your behalf for specialised professional advice, services and products
- The production of technical drawing packages, including lighting plans, for construction and communication with builders, joiners and trades


Your survey responses will be strictly confidential and data from this research will be reported only in the aggregate. Your information will be coded and will remain confidential. If you have questions at any time about the survey or the procedures, you may contact Alison Loader at 04 0401 8723 or by email at [email protected]
