The Complete Guide to Interior Design for a New Property in Marbella
A new property removes many renovation unknowns, but it still needs a plan. Starting before handover creates time to review the specification, order long-lead items and organise installation properly.
01
Before handover
Review plans, electrical points, lighting, kitchen details, wardrobes and terraces. Confirm what the developer will change and the deadline for each decision.
02
Design and procurement
Develop furniture layouts and material direction first, then specify pieces against dimensions and lead times. Place orders in the sequence required for installation.
03
Handover to first stay
Complete a room-by-room snagging list, protect finished surfaces, coordinate access and deliveries, then allow time for assembly, styling and final checks.
