I’m living out of the country so it’s hard to find someone I can trust. The team at Pencil Studio was prompt, professional, and quick on their response. They scheduled an on-site visit to see the unit for measurements and quotation of the project expense.

Meanwhile, our construction fees vary depending on the complexity and scope of the project. Our construction costs typically start from 25,000 to 45,000 pesos per square meter.

How long does the design process take?

This depends on the size and complexity of the design. Fastest we did was a 21-day turnaround - but please note that your swift response to our feedback and revision process plays a crucial role to the timeline.

How long does a typical project construction take?

This really depends on the size and complexity of the project, Condo Fit-Outs typically take around 4-6 weeks, while Home Renovations and Home Construction varies a lot from taking several months or even a year for big ticket projects.
