Frequently Asked Questions

  • Wellness-focused, biophilic interior design considers how a space affects the people who use it, physiologically, psychologically, and emotionally.

    At STUDIO309, we design with light, material, proportion, views, enclosure, rhythm, airflow, and spatial flow to shape how a space feels, how people move through it, and how it supports rest, focus, connection, and daily wellbeing.

    Biophilic design is not about adding plants. It is about creating interiors connected to natural patterns over time.

  • We specialize in biophilic interior design, architectural interiors, and wellness-focused design. Our services range from initial concept development and space planning to full construction administration for residential, hospitality, and commercial spaces.

  • Yes. Consultations are available for clients who need expert guidance at a specific decision point.

    This may include reviewing a layout, preparing for a renovation, evaluating a commercial space, clarifying materials, improving flow, or identifying risks before construction, purchasing, leasing, or major decisions begin.

    A consultation is not casual advice. It is focused design judgment intended to help you move forward with more clarity.

  • Yes! While our design studio is based in Armstrong, BC, we offer full-service interior design throughout Canada. We also provide remote, virtual design consultations for select residential and commercial projects across Europe and the United States.

  • Yes.

    We collaborate with architects, builders, contractors, developers, and professional teams when a project would benefit from specialist interior design thinking, biophilic strategy, environmental psychology, material direction, or user-experience review.

    Our role is to strengthen the project, not complicate it.

  • The most important design decisions are often made before the project looks like design: site planning, orientation, layout, servicing, circulation, budget priorities, consultant needs, and project sequencing.

    When we are involved early, we can help reduce costly changes later and create a clearer foundation for design and construction.

    This is directly aligned with your process language. Your proposal states that early phases provide clarity for contractor engagement, budget alignment, and later documentation.

  • Timelines vary depending on project size, site complexity, and the level of documentation required.

    A focused consultation can often happen within a shorter timeframe. Full residential, commercial, hospitality, healthcare, or wellness projects follow a more structured process, moving from project understanding and spatial strategy into concept design, design development, documentation, and construction support.

    Once the scope is understood, the timeline becomes clearer. Early planning protects the quality of the outcome and helps avoid costly corrections later.

  • The first step is to submit a project inquiry through our website.

    We review the information provided to understand the project type, scope, timeline, and fit. For most residential and commercial projects, the next step is a consultation or scoping session to clarify the site, goals, complexity, and level of design support required before preparing a proposal.

    This structure helps us give thoughtful guidance early and identify important considerations before design decisions become costly or difficult to change.
