TERMS & CONDITIONS

LABODE Interior Design Studio

Virtual Interior Design Services – UK

Please read these Terms and Conditions carefully before engaging LABODE (“the Company”, “we”, “us”). By applying for or commissioning any service, you agree to be bound by the terms outlined below.

1. About LABODE & Scope of Services

LABODE provides virtual interior design services, including layout planning, spatial design, 3D visualisation, and digital design guidance for residential and commercial projects.

All drawings, layouts, 3D renderings, CGI imagery, floor plans, elevations, videos, and other digital design materials (“Design Materials”) are produced for visualisation and design guidance purposes only.

They are not intended to replace or be used as:

  • Architectural drawings

  • Structural or engineering plans

  • Plumbing, electrical, or mechanical specifications

  • Construction documents

Clients must always engage qualified professionals (architects, engineers, builders, contractors, or consultants) for technical drawings, permissions, compliance, and construction.

2. Ownership & Use of Design Materials

All Design Materials remain the intellectual property of LABODE.

Clients are granted a non-transferable licence to use the Design Materials solely for the purpose of completing the specific project for which they were commissioned.

Design Materials may not be:

  • Reused for other projects

  • Shared commercially

  • Replicated or resold

  • Altered or redistributed without written consent

LABODE reserves the right to use anonymised visuals, drawings, or excerpts of work for portfolio, website, or marketing purposes unless otherwise agreed in writing.

3. Limitations of Liability

While every service is delivered with professional care and good faith, LABODE shall not be held liable for:

  • Construction errors

  • Contractor interpretation

  • Supplier delays or changes

  • Product availability, pricing fluctuations, or substitutions

  • Decisions made by third parties

All design decisions implemented by the client, contractor, or supplier are done so at the client’s discretion and responsibility.

LABODE is not responsible for any loss, damage, or expense arising from reliance on Design Materials beyond their intended illustrative purpose.

4. Fees, Payment & Booking

Virtual / Online Interior Design Services

  • Fees are payable in advance, unless otherwise stated in a written proposal

  • Payments are non-refundable once work has commenced

  • A refund will only be considered if LABODE fails to deliver the agreed scope within 30 days of the agreed delivery date

Dislike of design direction or a decision not to proceed with the design does not constitute failure to deliver.

Bespoke & Proposal-Based Services

For Signature Virtual Design and larger projects:

  • Fees and scope are confirmed in a written proposal

  • A deposit may be required to secure a project start date

  • Payment schedules are outlined in the proposal

  • Deposits are non-refundable once LABODE is ready and able to commence work

Invoices must be paid within 14 days unless otherwise agreed. Late payments may incur interest.

5. Scope Changes & Additional Work

Any changes outside the agreed scope — including additional revisions, rooms, renders, sourcing, or extended support — must be agreed in writing and may incur additional fees.

Fixed-fee proposals apply only to the original scope. Additional work will be quoted separately.

6. Products, Orders & Third-Party Suppliers

Where product suggestions or sourcing guidance is provided:

  • All purchases are made by the client directly

  • LABODE does not hold responsibility for supplier performance, lead times, defects, or returns

Once items are ordered, responsibility transfers to the client. Any support LABODE provides regarding cancellations or refunds is chargeable and cannot be guaranteed.

7. Client Information & Data Protection

LABODE collects and processes personal information solely for the purpose of delivering design services and administering contracts, in accordance with UK data protection regulations.

We may retain:

  • Name

  • Contact details

  • Project information

  • Correspondence

Information is only shared with third parties where necessary to support the project (e.g. contractors, suppliers).

  • Data is retained only as long as necessary

  • You may request access to or deletion of your data, subject to legal obligations

  • Submitted forms may result in inclusion on the LABODE mailing list (with opt-out available at any time)
