# Ilse Moranti Studio | Intérieurs résidentiels et hôteliers, Melbourne

## Cover

### Interiors that begin with the material in your hand.

*Capabilities · Ilse Moranti Studio*

Residential and hospitality interiors from a studio of seven in Collingwood. Selected work, how we run a project and who to call.

- Studio: Collingwood, Melbourne, since 2015
- Edition: March 2027

*Living room in terracotta limewash and travertine*

*Ilse Moranti Studio*

## Position

A room is remembered by touch long after the photographs fade.

## In numbers

### The studio in numbers

Seven people, kept small by choice. Ilse Moranti draws on every project, and the person who presents your scheme is the one who stands in the room on install day.

### Samples in the library

### Sallow Wine Room, Cremorne

### Level 31, Southbank

## How we work

Four habits that separate a scheme which photographs well from one that still feels right after five years of use. None of them is glamorous. All of them are where the budget is saved.

### Material first, drawing second

*Sample board of terracotta, travertine, brass and linen*

### Walk it before you buy it

*Dining room studied in 3D before ordering*

### One live FF&E tracker

*Fabric swatches and finish chips beside the tracker*

### Install as one event

*Bedroom styled on install day*

## Materials library

### The materials library

1,380 samples, catalogued digitally and held physically in the studio. Most are Australian made or low-VOC, and every one carries its lead time on the label.

*Terracotta tile against travertine*

*Rust boucle on limewash plaster*

*Spotted gum veneer and brushed brass*

*Terrazzo with recycled aggregate*

*Rammed earth layers*

*Ink linen on pale oak*

## How a project runs

A full house takes 22 to 28 weeks from brief to styled rooms. The design is the short part. Lead times decide the date, so we order against them, not against the calendar we would like.

### 1. Brief and site measure, two weeks

A long conversation about how you actually live or trade, a laser measure of the site and a written brief you sign off before any design begins.

### 2. Concept, three to four weeks

One scheme, presented on a physical sample board with plans. We show the version we believe in rather than three to choose between.

### 3. Developed design, four weeks

Joinery drawings, lighting plan, RCP and elevations, all modelled in 3D. You walk the rooms in VR and make your changes here.

### 4. Specification, three weeks

Finish schedule and FF&E schedule with every item priced, sourced and its lead time confirmed by the supplier in writing.

### 5. Procurement, ten to sixteen weeks

Upholstery runs 10 to 16 weeks, bespoke joinery 8 to 12, stone 6 to 8. Long-lead items are ordered first, the day you approve them.

### 6. Install and styling, two weeks

Delivered and installed in one run, styled over two days, then a snag list closed within ten working days.

## Clients

### From the people who hired us

> Our upholsterer slipped four weeks. Rafaela saw it in the tracker before we did, moved the lobby seating to a second workshop and we still opened on the booked date.

— Margot Esselin, General Manager, Hotel Ardent

> We walked the whole house in VR one Saturday morning and moved the pantry door. That was the last change we made. Eleven days of install and we were living in it.

— Hiroko and Sam Brereton, Clients, Ruthven Street House

> Ilse argued for one light over the bar and nothing else. I thought the room would be too dark. Covers per night went up by a third.

— Luca Ferrandi, Owner, Sallow Wine Room

> Three show apartments specified from one sample box, with every lead time confirmed in writing. All three were styled a week before our sales launch.

— Bianca Sorell, Development Director, Talvern Property

> Their joinery drawings came through dimensioned to the millimetre and coordinated with the electrical plan. We had no site variations from the interiors package.

— Rhys Kalder, Director, Kalder Build

> The living room used to ring like a stairwell. They measured it, specified the plaster and curtains, and now we can hold a conversation at the window.

— Amelia Thurgood, Client, Level 31 Southbank
