Interior design prices in Tbilisi
Published design fees in Tbilisi are quoted per square metre of floor area. Geometria charges $20, $35 or $50 per m² depending on how much drawing and specification work you need, and KPI Studios charges $25, $35 or $40 per m² for its apartment design packages. At those rates a 70 m² flat costs $1,400 to $3,500 to design.
Smaller pieces of work are priced on their own. At KPI Studios three layout options cost $6 per m² and technical drawings alone $10 per m². Studios without a price list quote each job: Tinatin Interiors works out a price for every space, and ZROBIM architects gives a first figure through an online calculator.
The building work is a separate budget. KPI Studios starts a designer renovation from white frame at $250 per m².
What to check before signing with an interior designer
- Working drawings, not only 3D images. A contractor prices and builds from drawings. Spott Studio’s standard set includes furniture, lighting, socket and switch, ceiling, floor and heating plans, plus door specifications.
- How many revisions the fee covers. KPI Studios allows up to 2 rounds of changes on its layouts and on its 3D views, and Spott Studio includes 2 edited versions if needed.
- Who specifies the materials and furniture. Geometria’s Premium tier gives an article number and a shop for each material, and Tinatin Interiors hands over exact lists of furniture and items.
- Whether the designer supervises the works. KPI Studios bills supervision separately from the design fee, while Idaaf Architects and Artytechs carry supervision as part of their service.
Types of interior design studio in Tbilisi
Architecture firms with interior teams take on structural changes, permits and larger buildings. Idaaf Architects and Shanidze Studio offer structural engineering, Artytechs has a partner whose experience includes heading the Old Tbilisi permit department, and ZROBIM architects is the local office of a network with its head office in Minsk.
Design and renovation companies suit a flat with a fixed budget. KPI Studios and Geometria publish their design tiers per m² and renovate as well, so one company can take a flat from the first layout to finished rooms.
Portfolio-led studios sell on the interiors they have already finished. Rooms Studio designs its own furniture and objects alongside hotel and restaurant work, Spott Studio’s founders count more than 40 implemented projects, Tinatin Interiors has designed for Pasha Bank and Re|Bank, and Room Design Studio pairs its design service with a partner showroom.
