Questions

Frequently asked.

The questions we hear most often.

How is Apartment Archive different from interior design?

Traditional interior design is a bespoke, often open-ended service. Apartment Archive delivers a defined furnishing guide built around a specific apartment layout — the recommendations, registry, and placement are tailored to your unit's actual dimensions, without the cost or timeline of a full design engagement.

Do I need measurements?

In most cases, no. We work from the building's floor plans. If your unit has unusual modifications, you can share a few measurements and we'll account for them in the placement guidance.

What if my unit is unavailable?

If your exact unit isn't in the archive yet, we'll either build it from the building's plans or match you to the closest comparable layout and adjust the guidance accordingly.

Can I request a custom unit?

Yes. Submit a request with your building and unit details and we'll create a tailored guide for your specific floor plan.
