Crafting luxurious
Creating Homes was born out of a simple idea: homeowners should be able to create sophisticated, livable spaces that enhance their lives. We believe that exceptional quality in design and execution is essential and that every home should have a unique sense of character that makes it truly special.
Our Approach to
delivering excellence.
We promise to deliver exceptional design concepts and space planning, infused with sophisticated international aesthetics. We commit to working closely with you in curating an environment that is fit for your personal taste and bringing them to life with European-standard results & world-class finishing.
Our process, your vision, stunning results!
We keep our skills and teams in-house, giving us full control over our process. This enables us to offer turnkey solutions where our clients deal with a single project manager for all their needs.

From vision to reality:
Our process makes it happen.
1 The Concept
The process starts with you. We begin by understanding your motivations, the things important to you, and how you want to live your life. Your concept leads to an overarching design that knits together your requirements into a cohesive narrative, This is presented as floor plans and mood boards, along with a detailed quotation.
2 The Visualisation
Upon acceptance of the quotation, we begin the process of submitting the plans to the relevant authorities for approval. The concept, once refined and agreed upon, is translated into 3D renderings for the final go-ahead.
3 The Detail
With a comprehensive grasp of the project, our team transitions the 3D visualization into the creation of shop drawings. We meticulously translate conceptual ideas into detailed technical drawings. We curate a wide range of materials for your consideration. From natural elements to innovative composites, we strive to provide you with a diverse selection that meets your project’s specific requirements.
4 The Material
At Creating Homes, material selection is a tactile and inclusive experience. We guide you through the process of seeing and feeling each sample, so you can make an informed choice. Your project comes to life with materials that reflect your unique style, and we ensure you’re involved every step of the way.
5 The Realisation
Our expert in-house team begins translating ideas into reality on-site. The process is meticulously overseen by our project Design Director and Project Managers. We’ll keep you updated every step of the way, turning your vision into a stunning reality with a comprehensive snagging process before handing your home back to you.
Our Team
Our team brings multiple approaches and disciplines in one complete package. We deliberately keep core expertise in-house, from skilled project and site managers to tile, masonry and MEP experts. We also have the expertise and knowledge to source exceptional materials and rare pieces, or to craft bespoke pieces as needed.
As a client, you benefit from one port of call – with a dedicated project manager, together with our design director, overseeing your project. This means that every time you interact with us, you know you’re speaking to a knowledgeable, dedicated, and committed project manager who recognises that good design starts with understanding you.
