The decision behind the detail
Choose a few main references for floors, wall colours and visible timber. Review them beside retained items, then allow individual rooms a controlled variation.
A useful checklist
- Keep labelled samples
- Review adjacent rooms
- Identify retained materials
Bring it into the project brief
Use the same reference list across phases. Similar product names can lead to different results when ordered months apart.
For the related scope, see coordinated interior finishes. Keep the relevant measurements, selections and open questions together before requesting a written quote.
