THE "MORE FOR LESS" SERIES 4: WHAT ABOUT YOU?!!

 

THE 

"MORE 

FOR LESS" 

SERIES 4: 

WHAT 

ABOUT 

YOU?!!


Happy Weekend Peeps,

It's such a pleasure to have your attention again as I proceed with The "More For Less" Series, a mission to guide my audience on how to make the best of their spaces on a little budget and limited timeline.

From the onset, I chose to segment my posts on this series by needs rather than being generic, this got me to address the series from 2 angles 👇

💡 the need for IDEAS

🚚 the need for DELIVERY

Do well to use the link below to glean insights from my previous posts 👇

Now I will be addressing the needs that are peculiar to my audience, and from findings, the most reoccurring need is centered around TRUST.

Trust in this context is not just a concern for the outcome of the effort to transform your space. (in terms of aesthetics and functionality), but trust for the process of execution itself.

While a single post wouldn't do justice to this subject, permit me to address the top 3 on the list 👇


#1: 

PEOPLE 


With my years of experience as an interior designer and project manager I have had to deal with various people (vendors, artisans, colleagues etc) and I know dealing with people is one of the toughest things I have to do on my job.

So when it comes to the people factor, here a few nuggets from me to you;

- be observant; people will do to you what they do to others in your presence.

- be rational; know everyone's got strength and weaknesses.

- be a stickler; go with the few that's proven to deliver.


#2: 

FUNDS


I do not have so much to say when it comes to establishing trust for the funding of your projects, but I will tell you one thing that works for me;

A CONTRACTOR'S BOND

A contractor’s bond (or surety bond) is a three-party agreement that guarantees a contractor will fulfill their contractual obligations. It protects project owners against financial loss if the contractor fails to finish a project.

The parties involved in this setup includes:

The Principal: The contractor performing the work.

The Obligee: The project sponsor (you) requiring the bond.

The Surety: The insurance company backing the bond that provides the financial guarantee.



#3: 

USAGE


Here is a subtle yet crucial concern, and that's because it's very easy to drift off the original purpose intended for a space.

If you have ever seen a disorderly space, chances are high you are in a space that's no longer serving the purpose for which it was created.

So in approaching the subject of usage, it's ideal to clearly identify the end users of the space, and engage them to achieve alignment.

This is where professionals like myself come on board and that is why project briefs are essential.

THE  "SECOND  CHANCE"  SERIES 2: BEAUTIFUL EXCHANGE!!! Hello and Happy Easter Peeps, It's that time of the year when we remember and celebrate Divinity taking a second chance on humanity. Coincidentally, the essence of Easter celebration is in complete sync with The "Second Chance" series, where I seek to help my audience take a second chance on some crucial elements within their spaces. My last post aimed at helping you resolve dysfunctional layout, and I'm quite confident you have gained some insights on different shapes of spaces and how to best utilize them. Now let's have a look at what I love to call the "beautiful exchange", a concept of how you can reuse worn out or 'out of fashion' items in your space, making them more appealing, and having a positive impact on your space. I should mention as I proceed that there are several ideas to achieving beautiful exchanges, however I would categorize them into 3 aspects namely 👇 #1: FAC...

  THE "ABOUT THIS TIME"  SERIES 2: THE SEASONS YOU KNEW  NOTHING  ABOUT! !! Hi there, Trust you are doing great and making the best of this summer. As for me, I'm trying my best to connect with my audience beyond the scope of my job as an interior designer and project manager by referencing cycles of seasons that spans 2 decades of my life, ranging from year 2004 to 2024. Hence, The "About This Time" Series  Going by my age, the seasons of my life you knew nothing about would likely exceed 3 decades (if you are not a relative, a friend or a colleague), but then I should ask myself; at what points did I become conscious enough to identify seasons of my life and their peculiarities? Looking in hindsight, the answer would be at points where I was plagued with BOREDOM, and here is what I mean 👇   #2004: FROM  BOREDOM TO EXPOSURE  About This Time 20 years ago 💭🤔 Photo: Ayodeji (left) | Yours sincerely (right) 🙈 Location: College of Technology, Yaba...

I hope it's been worth following. Below are nuggets of insights gained from my previous posts on this series: ✅ Boredom can become the tool with which we TRANSITION into a better version of ourselves, provided we are with the right people in the right environment. ✅ As we go higher in life, chances are high we put on a magnifying lens on our achievements and accolades. There is a call to action for us to look back and appreciate the days of LITTLE BEGINNINGS. Now as I delve into the seasons I look forward to, let's have a look at recent events that serves as indicators to my expectations for the future 👇 #2024: SEASONS ARE IN ...
