How it works
A process you can watch from the outside
Every commission moves through the same five stages. You always know which one you're in, what we need from you, and what happens next.
- 01
Discovery
Week 1
Your part
Answer the questionnaire, then talk to us for 45 minutes.
Ours
We write back a shape: scope, rough budget band, two directions.
- 02
Concept
Weeks 1–3
Your part
React honestly to references. 'No' is the most useful thing you can say.
Ours
Palette, layout or menu architecture, presented as one coherent idea.
- 03
Curation
Weeks 3–6
Your part
Approve makers, tastings or samples.
Ours
Sourcing, quoting, and holding dates with people we already trust.
- 04
Production
Weeks 6–10
Your part
One sign-off per milestone. Nothing else.
Ours
Schedules, quality checks, freight, contingency plans.
- 05
Delivery
The day
Your part
Be a guest in your own event, or open the door.
Ours
Run of show, on-site direction, and everything cleared afterwards.
