How long does it take?
Most projects like this take 3–6 weeks from approved design to handover, depending on size and the materials chosen. We agree a written schedule before work starts.
How is the cost worked out?
Every project is priced on its own — by the size of the space, the materials and finishes you choose, and the amount of building work involved. After a free consultation we give you an itemised written quote, so you know the full cost before anything starts.
Our reception & lobby design process
Good reception & lobby design is about planning more than decoration. Every KejaPal project follows the same clear steps, so you always know what happens next and what you're paying for.
- Free consultation. We visit your space, or meet on a video call, to understand how you use it, your style and your budget.
- Measure & brief. We take accurate measurements and photos and agree a written brief so nothing is assumed.
- Concept & 3D design. You get a mood board, a layout and 3D renders. We revise until you're happy.
- Fixed written quote. An itemised quote covering materials, labour and timeline — before you commit to anything.
- Build & install. Our own crews and workshop build and install everything, with one project manager reporting to you.
- Handover & aftercare. We snag, style and hand over a clean, finished space, backed by a workmanship warranty.
Reception & lobby design ideas and trends in Kenya
Kenyan clients increasingly want spaces that look premium but are practical for dust, sunshine, power cuts and busy family or business life. These are the reception & lobby design ideas we're designing most often right now:
- Branded reception areas that tell your story in the first ten seconds
- Glass partitions and acoustic panels that keep open offices bright but quiet
- Hybrid layouts: hot desks, focus booths, a meeting room for every team size
- Biophilic design — planters, timber and daylight — to lift wellbeing and productivity
- Durable, easy-clean finishes for clinics, salons, shops and high-traffic floors
We'll help you choose what suits your space and budget rather than follow a trend that dates quickly.
Who our reception & lobby design service is for
We regularly work with corporate offices, apartment developers, hotels and clinics. Front desks and lobbies that make a strong first impression. Whether it's your first project or your tenth, you get the same senior designer, a 3D design and a written quote before work begins.
