Furnishing & Procurement

Italian furnishing, selected and purchased for your project.

Buy the Italian furniture you have chosen through a studio working for you. AD’ negotiates with suppliers on your behalf and purchases at source in Italy, following your priorities and budget. The available trade terms and the fee for AD’s work are shown together.

You can begin with one piece, one brand or your designer’s furnishing selection. A retailer’s quotation can be the starting point. AD’s architects and engineers check dimensions, configurations and technical details with the suppliers and your project team before you approve the order. AD’ does not upsell.

What we bring
to your project.

Selection & sourcing

We help you choose the pieces that belong together, checking their scale, finishes and relationship to the room. An existing selection can be developed into a coordinated package, including Italian marble and bespoke work.

Samples & bespoke

See materials together before deciding. We receive and review supplier samples in Italy, then send them to you. For bespoke pieces, we develop dimensions, drawings and finishes with the makers.

Orders & production

We purchase the agreed pieces on your behalf and coordinate supplier information and the production reviews included in your appointment. Delivery and installation arrangements are established before orders are placed.

For private owners

You have a home to furnish.

You may be starting with a complete property, a few rooms or pieces you already own. We develop the furnishing package around the space and your priorities, bringing furniture, lighting, finishes and bespoke work into the same conversation. A particular piece, a kitchen or a shortlist can be the starting point.

Stone & craftsmanship

Working with the stone and its makers.

The character of the full slabs and the way a piece is fabricated both matter. Selection and workshop conversations connect the material with the intended design.

At Sikder Haus, furnishing extended from illuminated stone and glass lighting to individually developed furniture. The installed chess table and its signature detail show the bespoke piece at two scales.

For a piece being made to order, see what to resolve before production. If you already have drawings or samples, Technical & Project Review can examine the details and develop the agreed corrections with your makers and project team.

Before we begin

A few useful
answers.

Buying the Italian furniture you have chosen

How do we begin a furnishing package?

Share the rooms or selections, destination and intended timing. We discuss the design information and support you need, then prepare a proposal defining the package, responsibilities and fees. Purchases follow your approval of the selections, quotations and ordering arrangements.

Do we need a full interior design appointment?

No. Furnishing & Procurement can be commissioned for a defined purchase, one brand or a complete interior, working with your existing designers where appropriate. A list of chosen pieces or a retailer’s quotation can be the starting point.

How do trade prices and the studio fee work?

AD’ purchases on your behalf using project trade conditions from Italian suppliers. The price for the approved selection, the studio fee and the applicable delivery or installation costs need to be considered together. These purchasing arrangements and responsibilities are agreed before orders are placed. Compare the full cost for the same models, finishes and scope.

When should we begin furnishing a home abroad?

Ideally, while layouts and the building programme are still being developed. Fitted furniture and bespoke pieces can affect lighting, power points and finished dimensions. We review these decisions with your designers, specialists and makers before orders are confirmed. If work is already underway, we can begin with the plans and selections you have.

Do you source Italian marble as well as furniture?

Yes. We source Italian marble alongside furniture, lighting and bespoke pieces, coordinating material selection, finishes and fabrication requirements with your project team. We also work with international products and materials where they suit the brief.

How do we approve materials from another country?

We receive and check material and finish samples from suppliers, then send them to you for approval. We discuss the options with you and record your approved selections in the furnishing schedule.

Who contracts with suppliers and places the orders?

AD’ purchases on your behalf. Before ordering, we agree the approved selections, quotations, payment arrangements and supplier contracts, together with responsibility for shipping, customs, insurance and installation.
