Real estate audit

Before investing in space, it is important to clearly understand what you are dealing with. A property audit is a professional consultation before the start of a project or even before signing a purchase or lease agreement. We help you see the property from the perspective of architectural, functional and financial potential. During the audit, we analyze planning possibilities, design constraints, engineering systems, regulatory requirements, real space usage scenarios and the suitability of the property for your goals. This allows you to understand what can be changed in the space, what will be difficult or economically unjustified, and where the risks are hidden that are not obvious at first glance. An audit is especially useful when you are choosing an apartment, house or commercial premises; planning to renovate or change the function of the space; doubting the feasibility of the investment; received an attractive price, but are not sure about the technical condition; or want to understand the real budget of the future project before the design starts.

 

This approach helps to avoid typical problems: buying a facility with critical limitations that cannot be legally or economically fixed; unsuccessful planning decisions that eat up space; overestimated expectations from space; unforeseen costs during implementation; delayed deadlines due to technical surprises. In essence, an audit is a way to reduce risks before they turn into costs. As a result, you get a clear understanding of the potential of the facility, its strengths and weaknesses, approximate volumes of intervention and recommendations for further steps. An audit does not oblige to a full project, but it provides the main thing – the basis for a considered decision and control over the situation before the start of investments.

PROJECT DESIGN STAGES - ACTION ALGORITHM

INTRODUCTION

We lay the foundation for creating your future interior

During a meeting with our art director, we will discuss your preferences and ideas about how you would like the interior to look. At this stage, we will also gather information about the location of the apartment/house, its size, and current layout. Next, based on your wishes or the completed brief (a unique questionnaire with specially compiled questions that we need to start the design process), we prepare a commercial offer and conclude a contract, after which we begin the design process.

AUDIT OF THE OBJECT

Invest with confidence — evaluate the potential of the space before the project even starts

Before investing in space, you should be completely confident in what you are buying. We offer professional advice even before the start of the project or even before signing the purchase agreement, which allows you to avoid unpleasant surprises and correctly assess the cost and prospects of the property. This is an opportunity to analyze the property in detail, consider it through the prism of architectural and living potential, and understand the opportunities it offers for planning, project implementation, and long-term use.

INTERIOR DESIGN CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT

We combine your lifestyle and interior space

At this stage, we try to combine your wishes and ideas with the initial data. We work out various options for the layout (if it is not our architectural project), the color palette of the interior, and the main finishing materials, and select specific furniture and decor items for each room. The result is a 3D diagram for each room, where you can see and understand the shapes and colors of the space.

    Before investing in space, you need to be sure that you know exactly what you are buying.

    At citek, a concept is not just a style or visual direction. This stage helps you see the future space before you start spending money. A concept is your confidence in the right direction, a strategy that allows you to make accurate decisions and not spend unnecessarily.

    At citek, we create interiors that are not just beautiful — they are honest, functional, and humane. It is an environment that supports you in your daily life: at work, at rest, in motion, in silence. We believe that space influences a person no less than the architecture in which they exist. That is why interior design for us is about meaning, feeling, contact with materials, and life scenarios.

    At citek, we create architecture that supports rather than dominates. A house is not just a volume, it is an environment where inner peace is born, where space works for you — not the other way around. We cannot imagine a house in isolation from people, landscape, climate, or lifestyle. Architecture must be honest. That is why our houses are spacious, open, adaptable, and always alive.
