What Wax Design does

Wax Design OÜ is a privately held interior design studio founded in 2006 in Tallinn, Estonia, operating as a small collective of graduates from the Estonian Academy of Arts (Eesti Kunstiakadeemia). The firm provides interior design, space planning, 3D visualization, bespoke furniture and product design, landscape design, and project supervision services. Its core offering is delivered through three structured service packages: a New Layout package (30 EUR/m²) for technical drawings, a Room Visualization package (35 EUR/m²) for 3D renderings, and a Full Design Project package (75 EUR/m²) that combines layouts, renderings, material sourcing, custom furniture design, and builder coordination. Add-on services include hourly designer consultation (85 EUR/hour), room decoration (40 EUR/m²), author supervision (500-1,200 EUR/month), and individually priced commercial, landscape, and product design work.

The studio serves two primary customer segments: private clients (Eraklient) seeking apartment and house renovations, and business clients (Äriklient) including hospitality, office, retail, and cultural venues. Notable commercial clients include Goodwin Steak House (Espoo and Zürich), OP Corporate Bank, Hotel INGER (Narva), IT Talent, and Modus, with project delivery extending to Finland, Switzerland, Spain, Germany, and France. Pricing is per-square-meter for design packages and per-hour for consultations, with revenue mechanics typical of professional services: chargeable design hours, project-based fixed pricing, and monthly recurring supervision fees.

The go-to-market is sales-led and direct: clients contact the studio by phone or email and engage in pre-consultation meetings before project initiation. The firm differentiates through industrial design specialization enabling custom furniture, an established partner network (lighting, furniture, wall coverings, tile suppliers) that delivers client discounts, and a portfolio spanning 18+ years and five European countries. Wax Design is independently funded with local Estonian capital, has no disclosed parent company, no external institutional investment, and operates as a boutique design practice with Tatjana Bobchinskaya as the named lead designer.
