Procurement & FF&E
Studio Appleby carefully curates and sources every piece that enters your home, overseeing deliveries, quality control, and installation with meticulous attention to detail.

Our Procurement & FF&E (Furniture, Fixtures, and Equipment) service ensures every element of your space is carefully curated and sourced. With meticulous attention to detail, we oversee deliveries, quality control, and installation to ensure that every piece aligns perfectly with your design vision, bringing your space to life with refined elegance and uncompromising quality.
Our Process
Specification and Sourcing Brief
Drawing directly from your approved design, we prepare a detailed specification of every item to be procured, from statement furniture pieces and bespoke joinery to lighting, textiles, and accessories. Each item is defined by its purpose, position, and design criteria, creating a clear brief that guides all sourcing decisions and ensures nothing is overlooked.
Supplier Research and Curation
We draw on our established network of trusted suppliers, makers, and artisans to source pieces that meet both your design vision and our standards for quality. Where appropriate, we visit showrooms and workshops on your behalf, assess samples, and explore bespoke commissions, ensuring that every item entering your home has been individually considered and vetted.
Quotation and Budget Management
We obtain detailed quotations for all items and present a clear procurement schedule aligned with your agreed budget. Where adjustments are needed, we offer considered alternatives without compromising on quality or design integrity. Transparency is central to how we work, and you will always have a clear picture of where your investment is being directed.
Order Placement and Lead Time Management
Once the procurement schedule is approved, we place all orders and take responsibility for tracking each item from confirmation to delivery. We manage lead times carefully, coordinating suppliers to ensure that pieces arrive in the right sequence to support the programme on site, and keeping you informed of progress throughout.
Delivery, Quality Control and Installation
When items arrive, we oversee delivery, inspect every piece against the original specification, and manage the installation of furniture and fittings with care. Any items that do not meet our quality standards are addressed before your space is revealed. The result is a space where every element has been placed with intention, arriving exactly as envisioned.
“Working with Ina was a fantastic experience! She perfectly captured my style, creating a space that's both functional and beautiful. The entire process was seamless, from selecting colours to coordinating with contractors. I'm thrilled with the final result - it's elegant, personalised, and exceeds my expectations. Highly recommend Studio Appleby for anyone looking to elevate their space!”
