Furniture planning
Dimensions, quantities, layouts, comfort, circulation, and the relationship to fixed architecture.
FF&E + soft furnishing
Furniture and finishing layers designed as part of the space.
For projects that need a coherent furniture, lighting, textile, art, and accessory direction rather than isolated product selections.

Direct answer
FF&E turns the spatial concept into a complete, usable interior.
The service coordinates furniture, decorative lighting, curtains, rugs, art, accessories, dimensions, finishes, intended locations, and specification records. Procurement can be added separately.
Service scope
The schedule connects aesthetics, scale, performance, and purchasing information.
Lighting and textiles
Decorative fixtures, curtains, rugs, upholstery, colour, texture, and acoustic softness.
Art and accessories
A controlled final layer that supports the interior rather than filling it indiscriminately.
FF&E schedule
Item name, reference, dimensions, finish, quantity, intended location, supplier, and approval status.
Scope and responsibility
Design selection and product purchasing are separate scopes.
This distinction allows an owner to use local suppliers, direct purchasing, or Volume Plan’s optional procurement support without confusing the design fee with product costs.
Design direction
Define the desired atmosphere, functional needs, budget bands, and sourcing strategy.
Selection
Research suitable standard or bespoke pieces and coordinate dimensions and finishes.
Approval
Record samples, substitutions, client decisions, and specification status.
Procurement option
Add quotation, supplier, sample, shop-drawing, inspection, and logistics coordination if required.

For projects led by Volume Plan: Yes. Bespoke items require drawings, material specifications, shop drawings, samples, and approval before production.
For projects led by Volume Plan: Built-in joinery normally sits within interior design; the proposal defines the boundary for each project.
