INTERIOR DESIGN & HOME CONSULTING

Interior Design and Home Consulting: How Spaces Become a Harmonious Home

Good interior design is more than the sum of beautiful individual pieces. It combines function, light, proportion and premium materials into an overall concept that suits the people who live within it. At Imperial Interiors in Zurich, we accompany you personally along this journey – from the first idea to the fully furnished home.

What Thoughtful Interior Design Involves

A successful room begins with function: how is it used, what pathways emerge in everyday life, where is calm needed and where interaction? Proportion and scale build upon this – the size and arrangement of furniture in relation to the room determine whether a setting feels generous or cramped. When harmonious lighting and high-quality materials are added, an overall picture emerges that not only looks good but also proves itself in daily life.

Light, Material and Proportion in Interplay

Light shapes spaces: daylight, warm evening light and precisely placed luminaires determine the atmosphere just as much as the colour effect of surfaces. High-quality materials – such as carefully crafted woods, textiles or glass – age beautifully and retain their character over the years. From the balance of light, material and well-proportioned dimensions emerges an interior that feels calm yet lively and reflects the personal lifestyle of its inhabitants.

Personal Home Consulting and Space Planning at Imperial Interiors

Imperial Interiors sees itself as a premium furniture house in which personal consulting is at the heart of everything. In our home consultations, we take the time to understand your everyday life, your preferences and the characteristics of your rooms, and translate this into a well-considered space plan. This creates a concept that does not follow a passing trend but suits you – one you will happily live with for years to come.

Curated Brands and Materials

Our range is deliberately curated. We are the exclusive Swiss distributor of DUXIANA, the Swedish brand since 1926, whose patented Pascal spring system adapts to the body and sleeping position and distributes pressure. The offering is complemented by Flou (Italian design from the Brianza), Natevo (Italian design luminaires), our own brand NUVOSETTE with handcrafted beds, Italian bed linen and premium terry towelling to OEKO-TEX standard, as well as Bomma, Melogranoblu, Locherber and Unopiù.

From Planning to Implementation – Across Switzerland

A concept only unfolds its effect through clean implementation. That is why Imperial Interiors delivers across Switzerland with its own logistics and carries out professional assembly with its own team. This keeps the path from planning to the fully furnished room in one hand – reliable and free of friction.

Furnishing a Home: The Right Order →From large to fine: clarify needs and budget, measure and plan the space, place the large furniture, define the lighting, then textiles and finally accessories – this order is proven consulting practice, not a standard. Real normative anchors exist for dimensions: passages from 80 cm clear width and corridors from 100–120 cm count as the reference in barrier-free building. And since the Swiss move less and less often (2023 relocation rate: 9.3%), a thorough concept for each home pays off all the more.Interior Consultation: What It Delivers, How It Works, What It Costs →“Interior architect” is not a federally protected title in Switzerland – qualification shows in training (a university of applied sciences degree), association membership (VSI.ASAI) or an entry in the REG register. Interior consultation and interior design focus on furnishing, material, color and light without structural alterations; the typical process leads from the initial conversation through measurement and concept to delivery and styling. With us, the initial conversation, the first home visit and the initial concept are free.Interior Styles at a Glance: From Bauhaus to Japandi →Styles are maps, not laws: the Bauhaus (1919–1933) laid the foundation of modernism, “Mid-Century Modern” was only defined as a design movement in 1984 by a book, Scandinavian design conquered the world from 1954 with a traveling exhibition, and Italian modernism institutionalized itself with the Compasso d'Oro (1954) and the first Salone del Mobile (1961). Japandi, in turn, is a young label – with, however, a very real historical root.Calculating Dining Table Size: How Much Table 4, 6 or 8 People Need →Furniture retailers calculate 60 to 70 cm of width and around 40 cm of depth per person – from that come the common guideline sizes: 120×80 cm for four, 180×90 cm for six and 200×100 cm for eight people; round tables need 110 to 125 cm in diameter for six people. Add to that the clearance space: 80 to 100 cm between the table edge and the wall, so chairs can be pushed back. Anyone who knows these figures can check the table size against the floor plan before buying instead of guessing in the shop.
