Price varies a lot. It reflects the thinking, time, and care that go into getting it right. Bigger the project - bigger the cost.
It covers the design of the piece, the materials it’s made from, the craftsmanship behind it, and the delivery and installation. You’re not just paying for furniture, but for something that fits your life and is made to last.

To us, a home isn’t just a place.
It’s a space where you get to be yourself.
It’s not about trends – it’s about timeless self-expression.
We design spaces and make custom furniture for people who:
appreciate Finnish design
want a home that truly feels like theirs
who want to live with things that hold meaning.
We just don’t want you just paint walls. Instead we ask:
How do you want to feel in your home?
Ilme is not just about design.
It’s about being.
It’s about coming home to yourself.
Starting point
Whether you have chosen a furniture service or a space plan, the design process begins with a discussion. We get to know you, your everyday life, and the space as it is now. We go through your wishes, needs, and challenges, as well as the key starting points for the space. The goal is to create a clear and shared foundation for the project.
The red tread
Based on these starting points, we develop a concept that guides the design process. We consider how the space should feel and how it should serve your everyday life. The concept brings coherence and a clear direction to the whole.
Idea to reality
Next, the concept is adapted to reality. The budget, schedule, and constraints of the space guide the choices, but do not undermine the original ideal.

Finally, the project is brought together as a complete whole. Technical drawings are aligned with the concept. The result is a carefully considered, timeless space designed specifically for you.
