Turnkey project

A contracting model where a single party takes on design, permits, construction, furnishing and final handover of a space that is ready to use.

Definition

In a turnkey commission the client signs with one accountable party. There is no blame-sharing between architect, builder and decorator: the studio answers for schedule, fixed budget and result.

It is the format we use when the owner does not live in the project's city or cannot coordinate trades: it covers procurement, logistics, installation and a handover with the home fully dressed.
