The blueprint of this HNI luxurious property was to source items that effectuated the elementary design notions- avant-garde extravagance and a comfortable environment. Shravan Khati- an exceptionally breathtaking architect with remarkable skills, partnered with Arcedior for procurement solutions to build this magnificent villa.
Arcedior had the fantastic opportunity to create the iconic structure of this palatial villa that portrays the a la mode essence unified with the code of exotic luxury. The project was given a kick-off in February 2018 that involved client meetings and requirement analysis. The high-end project began with a vision of the designer to build an unparalleled foundation that blended modern luxury with the Italian style. He wanted the villa to be one of a kind and Arcedior, with its years of experience, was optimistic about delivering an incomparable choice of materials and quality. Followed by this, the client, along with the Arcedior team, visited many factories in China and finalized the costing and order there itself. In its entirety, the client’s satisfaction was the core motive.
Working With Arcedior Made Sourcing A Breeze
Arcedior lent a helping hand to Shravan Khati in sourcing global sustainable decor products. With our vast networking chain of suppliers and vendors, sourcing the righteous products for the project became efficacious and trouble-free. The team adopted Moodboard – like-presentation technique for the procurement of furniture pieces before visiting the country. This scheme bore out fruitful results as the team was able to source from preeminent suppliers and more niche independent brands. Furthermore, the selected furniture was finely sourced and procured from China. Thus, sourcing with Arcedior saved designers’ handsome time that further helped him focus effectively on creative work. This collectively led to choosing the righteous furniture and delivering the result before the expected deadline.
Project Support
Interior Designer Shravan Khati was in continuous contact with the Arcedior team. He introduced the project owner to our sourcing and procurement services ranging from inspiration to installation. As acknowledged by the designer, the monumental task was to complete the project before Diwali. Thanks to the designer who provided immense support to the team to promptly execute and deliver the masterpiece. A dedicated project coordinator was introduced to Mr. Shravan Khati, who accompanied him to the factories and made the selection and required negotiations for the project.
The coordinator functioned as a point of contact and worked alongside the designer and business development team during the entire course of the project. In addition, he took care of all the requirements like product research, product suggestions, product quality check, and on-site installation.

Arcedior’s strong relationships with different manufacturers helped the client make wise decisions and procure the products at the best negotiated prices. Followed by the finalization of orders and costing in China, the deposit was submitted to seal the price and start with the production process. The products purchased by the client were built with in-depth research, to-notch designs, and specialized knowledge was a plus! A systematic approach to cost analysis, negotiations, and supplier sourcing were put into action from the beginning till the end of the project.

In addition to this, the project manager traveled at regular intervals to oversee the unpacking and installation.
