Hiring a Designer: Expense or Smart Investment?

31.03.2025

We are delighted to share that Julia Baydyk, Founder and CEO, was recently invited as a guest speaker at the London Business Club event — a dynamic network that has brought together over 2,000 entrepreneurs.

Drawing on her 18 years of experience in construction and project management, Julia shared insights on a topic that resonates deeply within our industry: Hiring a Designer — Expense or Smart Investment?

It’s a common misconception that working with a designer adds unnecessary cost. In reality, a skilled designer doesn’t increase your spend — they optimise it.

By preventing costly mistakes and making the most of every resource, great design pays for itself. During the event, Julia highlighted our experience with residential renovation projects across London, as well as our large-scale commercial collaborations — including the design of thousands of square metres of office space in partnership with Regus and the development company IWG, among many other exciting ventures.

The key mess? Hiring a designer doesn’t cost you — it saves you.

We are grateful for the invitation and the fantastic exchange of ideas. What a brilliant evening!
