We have a long and illustrious track record of providing elegant couture design schemes for luxury multi-unit developments and branded residences – balancing exceptional design with pragmatic proficiency. With design excellence at the heart of our business, we guarantee uncompromising quality with superior attention to detail and finish.
Our mission is to deliver an unforgettable client experience from the first encounter to the delivery of their project.
We are passionate about design and guarantee uncompromising quality with superior attention to detail and finish.
“In most people’s vocabulary, design means interior decorating. It’s the fabric of the curtains and the sofa. But to me, nothing could be further from the meaning of design”
Our design philosophy is to achieve perfect balance between simplicity, elegance and emotion, whether in new build or a renovation. This encompasses architecture, interior architecture, interior design and decoration.
Each of our clients is pushing boundaries and creating new benchmarks in luxury living where services, experience and convenience are the most important commodities.
We have worked for HNWI & wealthy individuals for the last 10 years designing their private residences. This invaluable understanding enables us to play a key role in shaping the resident experience into a truly exceptional one.
From creativity to construction, our expert team create detailed and developed technical information. This ensures design quality is maintained throughout the construction, contractual and delivery phases and provides a clear and accurate costing to avoid deviation during the project.
Our team is always available to lead the coordination of a project’s fine detail, liaising with the specialists (air conditioning, electricity, audio visual, structure). We continuously charge them with one objective: delivering superbly crafted residences of unmistakable quality.
We believe a cost plan is a core part of the project brief, not an obstacle to creativity – projects must be financially viable to warrant proceeding.
At Rive Gauche, when considering cost and quality, we balance exceptional design with pragmatic proficiency.
Our experience means we market test key design aspects at an early stage to ensure the budget will remain on course from the very beginning. This expertise ensures we deliver unprecedented value for our clients.
Nicolas has a deep understanding of the international high net worth clientele having designed a number of high profile private residences internationally, which was a great asset during the development of the project.
We frequently design bespoke furniture pieces, chandeliers and rugs for our projects. Using our expertise and contacts we are able to manufacture beautifully handmade furniture for competitive prices.
We can also source items off-the-shelf through our extensive network of suppliers in the UK, Europe and around the world.
Our long-standing experience enables us to deliver almost any type of furniture at any price point depending on the desired quality. We are very adaptable, pragmatic and knowledgeable when it comes to balance cost vs. quality.
We value quality of services over quantity: our projects are carefully selected to ensure Nicolas can devote the necessary time to create, manage and deliver each project as the dedicated point of contact.
Our technical and construction expertise come to the fore during this stage – a keen attention to detail ensures we challenge every detail from joinery to air conditioning flow.
Every project is unique and we apply a dedicated attention to detail from conception to delivery, driving us towards one goal – excellence.
When delivering a project, we consider every little detail. Each decorative object, soft furnishing, artwork and bed linen is handpicked to complement the interior. We can even fill the fridge and wine cellar!
We curate up-and-coming artists and commission bespoke artworks to complement the interior.
Our team organise the procurement logistics and white glove installation for a seamless experience.
