INDEPENDENT FF&E/OS&E INTELLIGENCE FOR ARCHITECTS
Hotel Architect FF&E/OS&E Budget: Design With a Real Envelope, Not a Guess.
If we didn't have to choose between originality and expertise, we could say that a hotel is like a house with more rooms.
With FIGURZ, architects new to hotel projects can convince clients to entrust them with their first.
Experienced architects—those who've seen their designs diluted—know how critical it is to ensure that everything, even what's outside the responsibility matrix, is planned and accounted for somewhere.

Why architects need a budget before the first sketch
Most architects start a hotel project without a defined envelope per space — nobody hands them one before the pencil touches paper. They fall in love with the shagreen and the velvet without knowing if it fits. The over-budget reality usually surfaces at the first real costing, often two months before delivery — and what gets diluted to compensate isn't the client's expectations, it's the design itself.
One architect spent six months designing a headboard priced at €2,400 before anyone ran the numbers. The finished room came out at €14,200 against an assumed "around €8,000." The client received the figure and said nothing — which turned out to be worse than pushback. The architect redesigned the entire room, not because the work was bad, but because nobody had defined the envelope before the first sketch.
What Figurz solves for architects
Figurz gives architects a per-space, per-category envelope — seating, lighting, furniture, tableware — before the first line is drawn, so the design is grounded in reality from the sketch stage, not corrected under pressure at the end. A standard room and mock-up room budget frames specification from the start. Value engineering stays a tool to improve the project, not a last-minute scramble to fund what someone else forgot. And an architect who knows their envelope can enter a competition with a proposal that's actually financially sound — not a guess dressed up as a design.
The old way needed drawings before you could cost anything. Figurz lets you cost first, so you can draw with confidence — and never redesign two months before handover because nobody defined the envelope early enough
FAQ
Does Figurz replace my design work?
No — Figurz gives you the budget envelope before you design, not a design itself. You keep full creative control; you just design inside a number that's already real.
Can I use it during a competition?
Yes — a growing number of architects use the free estimate specifically to enter competitions with a proposal they know is financially sound, not just visually strong.
Where do the numbers come from?
Figurz's estimates come from continuous, real-world data collection — through our partner network and our free app, updated daily. It's not a fixed price list; it's the market, reflected back to you.
If I pay for a project, can I update it later, or do I have to pay again?
No — your project stays saved in your account. You can go back, adjust the program, and update it as the project evolves, without paying again.
