Your renovation, kept in hand.
For owners, hotel groups, brands and design studios with a renovation, a fit-out or an interior to deliver: architects, contractors and suppliers held to one plan, one budget and one standard, with Gibson on your side.
On your side, from brief to handover.
Gibson does not design or build. It makes sure the people who do are working to the same plan as you.
Homes
Buying, renovating or furnishing a home from abroad: the brief written, the team found, site meetings attended and decisions brought to you in time.
Hotels and hospitality
Rooms, public spaces and refits on a live schedule: design team, contractors and suppliers coordinated so that openings and seasons are met.
Shops and offices
Fit-outs for brands and companies: drawings, permits handled by the professionals responsible, works and furniture delivered on the agreed date.
Design teams abroad
Studios working on a project in Italy from another country: local professionals, briefs and site information kept in step across languages and time zones.
Budget and changes
Quotes compared, changes priced before they are approved, and a running view of where the money is going.
Handover
Snag lists, documents and warranties collected, so the project ends with nothing left loose.

Before you get in touch.
Is Gibson an architect or a contractor?
No. Gibson manages the project on your behalf. Design, permits, site direction and safety stay with the architects, engineers and contractors you engage. Gibson finds them if needed, and keeps them in step.
Where do you work?
In Venice and across Italy, with regular presence on site. Projects elsewhere are run from Venice, with visits planned with you and travel charged at cost.
When should we bring Gibson in?
Ideally before the design is fixed or the contractor chosen: the clearer the brief early on, the fewer the surprises. Joining a project already under way is also common.
How is Gibson paid?
A fixed fee per stage, or a monthly fee for longer projects, agreed before work begins. No commissions from suppliers or contractors.
Which languages?
English and Italian.
Is our project kept confidential?
Yes. Client matters are confidential by default, client names are never published, and a confidentiality agreement can be signed before anything is shared.

Production and supply
For brands, studios, hotels and companies ordering from makers and suppliers, in Italy or between countries: drawings, samples, quality checks and shipping followed until the goods arrive as agreed.
