Turnkey interior design
One studio, one contract, one person responsible. We design the interior, price it, buy the materials, run the trades on site and hand over the keys to a finished, furnished apartment or house that matches the visualisation you approved.
Most interior projects fail in the gap between the drawing and the building site. The design is finished, the client is happy, and then the search begins: a contractor who is free, a joiner who will read the drawings, a supplier who actually has the tile in stock. Three months later the budget has moved, the schedule has moved, and nobody is quite sure who agreed to what.
Turnkey interior design closes that gap. We take the project from the first survey to the day you walk in with your suitcase. You approve the concept, the budget and the schedule once, and from that point we hold the contract with the trades, order the materials, check the work in progress and correct what needs correcting before you ever see it. There is a single point of contact and a single person answerable for the result.
We work this way in Warsaw and across Poland, and also on properties abroad, mainly in Spain, where clients cannot be on site to supervise anything themselves. Beautiful Minds has been delivering interiors since 2016, and the turnkey service grew out of a simple observation: the clients who were happiest were the ones who let us finish what we started.

Get in touchWhat turnkey actually covers
The word is used loosely in this industry. Here is what it means with us, written out so there is nothing left to interpret later.
Three situations where turnkey pays for itself
Turnkey is not the right answer for everyone. It earns its cost in these three cases more clearly than anywhere else.
You are not in the country
If you live abroad or travel constantly, supervising a renovation is not realistic. Someone has to be on site when the tiler asks which way the pattern runs. We send weekly photo reports and make those decisions inside the agreed design, so the work does not stop while you are in another time zone.
The property is an investment
An apartment bought to rent or resell has a deadline attached to it. Every month of empty renovation is a month of lost income. A turnkey contract has a fixed schedule and a fixed scope, which is what makes the return calculable rather than hopeful.
The scope is too large to manage alongside a job
A house of 200 square metres involves dozens of suppliers and hundreds of small decisions. Clients who try to run that in the evenings usually lose either the budget or the design. Handing the coordination over is not a luxury at this scale, it is what keeps the original concept intact.
How a turnkey project runs
Three stages, each closed with a decision and a document, so you always know what has been agreed and what it costs.
Concept and budget
We survey the property, discuss how you live and what the interior has to do, then present layout options and a mood direction. This stage ends with an approved concept and a cost estimate split by trade, so the budget conversation happens before the drawings, not after the invoices.
Documentation and procurement
Visualisations, technical drawings and a shopping list with specific products, prices and suppliers. Nothing goes on the list that we cannot source. We place the orders, check lead times against the schedule and hold the deposits so deliveries land in the right week.
Site, fit-out and handover
Trades work to our drawings and our schedule. We are on site at every stage that matters, from the first walls to the last light fitting, and we sign off the work before you see it. The project closes with the interior furnished, cleaned and photographed, and a snag list already dealt with.
If you need something narrower
Not every project needs the full contract. We also work on individual rooms and on design only, without the fit-out. Start from the interior designer in Warsaw page if you are not sure which fits.

Get in touchTurnkey interior design questions
The five that come up in almost every first conversation.
How much does a turnkey interior cost?
The design itself is priced per square metre and depends on the scope. The fit-out is the larger part of the budget and varies with the standard of finish, typically from a mid range specification up to bespoke joinery and imported stone. We give a cost estimate split by trade at the end of the concept stage, before any drawings are finalised, so you can adjust the standard rather than discover the number at the end.
How long does a turnkey project take?
For an apartment of 60 to 90 square metres, count on 2 to 3 months of design and 3 to 4 months on site. A house is longer, usually 4 months of design and 6 to 9 months of works. Lead times on joinery and imported materials are the most common cause of delay, which is why we order early and build the schedule around the longest lead item.
Can I keep my own contractor?
Yes, and it works well when you already have a team you trust. In that case we hand over the full documentation and supervise the work rather than contracting it. What we cannot do is guarantee the result of trades we do not manage, so the arrangement has to be agreed at the start rather than halfway through.
Do you work outside Warsaw?
We do. Most turnkey projects are in Warsaw and the surrounding area, but we also deliver in Krakow, on the coast and abroad, mainly in Spain. For properties outside the city we adjust the number of site visits and work with a local team that we have already checked, with our own supervision on the critical stages.
What happens if something is done badly?
It gets redone before handover, at our cost, because the contract is with us and not with the individual trade. That is the main practical difference between a turnkey contract and hiring the trades yourself. You have one party to speak to and one party responsible for the finished interior.
