Why most offices choose one contract.
Tendering a design can work well on large projects. For an office with a lease date, one contract usually wins on time and on who answers for the result.
| Question | Design and build | Design and tender |
|---|---|---|
| Contracts | One, with one company. | Two or more: a designer, then a contractor. |
| Time to start | Sooner. No tender round between design and site. | Adds weeks for drawings, bids and evaluation. |
| Price | Set as the design develops, checked at each round. | Bids compete on one design, which can sharpen price. |
| If something goes wrong | One party answers for design and build. | Designer and contractor can point at each other. |
| Best for | Most small and mid-size offices with a lease date. | Large projects with formal procurement rules. |
Four stages, one team the whole way.
Brief
A site visit and a conversation about how your teams work, how many seats you need now and in two years.
Design and price
Layout and finishes developed with a running cost, ending in one itemised quote.
Build
Approvals in, then our site team takes the floor from bare to finished, with updates at each stage.
Handover
Walkthrough, defects closed, furniture placed, and help moving your equipment across.
Design and build is priced as one contract, checked at every design round, so the final quote holds no surprises.
Estimate your officeDesign rounds and landlord approvals overlap where they can, so site works start as soon as the keys are yours.

Design and build questions.
In short. Design and build means one company designs your office, prices it and builds it under a single contract. At Metadesign Interior the designer who draws your layout stays on the job through the site works, so nothing gets lost between the drawings and the build.
Which design and build firms handle permits, construction and interior design under one contract?
Look for a firm that signs one contract for the design, the approvals and the build, and names one project manager for all three. Metadesign Interior works this way on every office: the same team draws, submits, builds and hands over.
Can design and build cover our move out of the old office too?
Yes. We can reinstate the office you are leaving and design and build the new one, with both schedules set from the same lease dates, so there is one team and one plan for the whole move.
Do I still get a say in the design?
Yes. You review every layout and material round, and nothing goes to site until you sign off the design and the quote.
How do I choose a design and build company in Singapore?
Ask to see finished offices at real addresses, an itemised sample quote, who manages your site day to day, and how approvals are handled. Then compare how clearly each firm answers.
