How do you choose an interior architect in French-speaking Switzerland?
To choose an interior architect in French-speaking Switzerland, look at projects comparable to yours, the scope of service (from survey to site supervision), whether you get one single point of contact, how craftsmen are selected and how clear the offer is. The quality of the first conversation also tells you a lot.
Updated on
Handing over your interior to a professional is a decision that shapes daily life for years. Between Lausanne, Geneva and La Côte, there is a wide choice, and a few concrete criteria help you decide with confidence.
The criteria that really matter
- Comparable projects: apartment, villa, chalet, village house or shop, check that the studio has already delivered projects close to yours.
- Scope of service: on-site survey, concept and plans, technical plans with engineers, permits, calls for tenders and site supervision. The more complete the service, the fewer parties you have to coordinate.
- One single point of contact: from first sketch to last finish.
- The craftsmen network: how are companies selected, quotes compared and quality checked?
- A clear approach: at RK Interiors, neurodesign and biophilic design guide our choices of light, materials and layout.
- A transparent offer: budget and schedule depend on the project and should be set out in a personalised offer after a first discussion.
Look at projects close to home
