How does it work?

1

Defining the Scope

The first step is all about understanding what exactly you are looking for. During an online video conference, we will zoom in on the four cornerstones of a bespoke development: Colour, Texture, Size and Shape.

Colour

To get the colour right, we will show you examples of products and projects we’ve delivered over the years. We will also ask you for reference images, sample materials or anything else that can help us understand better what you are looking for.

For custom developments, we can change our recipes to create new colours.

Texture

The look and feel of a material or surface depends a lot on the texture. Our production is flexible, so we have the possibility to create endless compositions. We’ll show you various options to determine what could work best in your design. Here you can see some examples:

Size

Size matters from an aesthetic as well as a technical perspective. Currently you can work within the maximum dimensions of 700mm (length), 240mm (width) and 80mm (height).

Shape

Corner bricks, ornaments, or special bricks - you name it, we can make it! We can produce many different shapes from custom moulds or we can cut certain shapes based on your design.

Price Indication

Based on the defined scope, we provide an initial cost price calculation. When the client commits to this budget and planning, we continue working on the bespoke development. The commitment in this phase is a downpayment of 10% of the order value. This amount will deducted from the total price upon ordering.

Lab-Time

Time for us to get back into the laboratory. Based on your input, we’ll start tweaking our base recipes and production methods to meet the expectations set in scope. The test results will be shared with you and improved in a maximum of three rounds.
