From Floor Plans to Finishes

Every refined interior begins long before finishes are selected or furnishings arrive. At Guidon Studio, the journey starts with thoughtful pre-design and programming—understanding how our clients live, move, and gather within a space. Through schematic design and design development, we translate those insights into carefully planned layouts, material narratives, and cohesive concepts. Floor plans, proportions, and circulation are considered with precision, establishing a strong foundation where architecture and interior design move seamlessly together.

As the project evolves, attention shifts to execution and detail. Through production and construction administration, we ensure that each element is delivered with clarity and care—from technical drawings to on-site oversight. Procurement then brings the vision to completion, with curated furnishings, art, and décor layered intentionally to elevate the final experience. From the first sketch to the final installation, our phased approach allows a luxury home to come to life with balance, craftsmanship, and enduring elegance—designed not only to be seen, but to be lived in.

Our time at Singita offered a powerful reminder of how interior design can shape the experience of place. Located in South Africa, both Singita Lebombo and Singita Ebony are luxury safari lodges where design and landscape move in quiet harmony. Lebombo’s glass-walled suites feel light and contemporary, framing the surrounding wilderness as part of the interior, while Ebony embraces a more classic safari sensibility—layered, grounded, and deeply atmospheric. Together, they tell a story of how thoughtful interiors can elevate a safari experience into something immersive, refined, and unforgettable.
