Commercial Projects - Common Mistakes & Roadblocks, and How to Avoid Them

Commercial interior design projects can be complex and challenging, and there are several common roadblocks and mistakes that businesses may encounter during the process. To avoid these obstacles, it’s crucial to work with an experienced and trusted partner who can guide you through the process and help you make informed decisions.

One of the most common mistakes businesses make is under-estimating the scope of the project. Interior design projects involve several stages, including design, procurement, implementation and instalment. Delays in any stage will have an impact on the following stage, so it’s essential to have a clear understanding of what each stage entails and considering the impact of late changes.

Another mistake businesses make is not having a well-defined budget for the project. It’s crucial to have a realistic budget in mind before you start the project to avoid overspending or making compromises on quality.

Businesses may also make mistakes during the planning and design stage of the project. For instance, not involving employees in the design process or failing to consider their needs and preferences can result in an office that doesn’t meet their expectations or doesn’t work efficiently.

Another common mistake is not considering future growth or changes in the business’s needs, which can result in a design that quickly becomes outdated. Finally, failing to prioritise sustainability, environmental responsibility, and ESG principles can lead to spaces that don’t meet regulatory standards and therefore do not attract and retain socially conscious customers and employees.
