A TURNKEY LOGISTICS, DEDICATED TO INTERIOR ARCHITECTS, DECORATORS AND DESIGNERS
ESI INTERIOR DESIGNERS is the global reference for a complete “supply chain”, up to the fiscal and legal representation of unique projects such as the installation of properties, private apartments, villas, headquarters, hotels, yachts, airplanes.
THE LOGISTICS PARTNER OF ARCHITECTS, DECORATORS, DESIGNERS
Our main mission is to support interior architects, decorators and designers in their projects of development or renovation of exceptional goods, by taking care of the specific logistics that these sites require.
We intervene on high-end development projects in logistical support for:
- exceptional villas,
- upscale apartments,
- private yachts,
- of the Cabin cruisers,
- hotels and resorts,
- private planes,
- headquarters
The projects of architects and designers are complex by nature: the interior design of an exceptional villa, a yacht or a private jet requires an absolute requirement and precision. Indeed, it is a matter of sending to the same place and at the same time pieces of furniture often very rare and precious, as well as decorative elements from multiple origins (suppliers, other properties of the client, purchase from art dealers, etc.). This logistics is similar to that of works of art – which we master – by the precision, rigor, know-how and perfect coordination of the various operations required throughout the project.
These turnkey projects require a multifaceted approach: logistical, organizational, legal and specific legal given their unique nature. Beyond the logistics service, ESI INTERIOR DESIGNERS is an expert in financial engineering and tax representation for confidential and unique projects.
We operate in France, in Europe and around the world.
The logistics of the art world at the service of interior architecture
At Group ESI, we provide architects and interior decorators (planes, boats or houses) with our expertise in the transport of works of art to ensure the detailed logistics of decorative elements and furniture for their future living space.
In the context of logistics for large-scale projects, we take the same care with the parts entrusted to us as we do with works of art and antiques: handling with white gloves at departure and destination, vehicles on air cushions, storage in temperature-controlled warehouses, custom packaging, experienced and qualified personnel.
Customized solution for the transport and handling of your customers’ exceptional goods
The specialists of ESI INTERIOR DESIGNERS will be able to study with you the methods for carrying out the space arrangement project. Then, they will offer you the appropriate solutions for handling and transporting the decorative pieces that you have selected and designed for their future interior, taking into account their particularities: volume, weight, handling conditions, value, fragility, destination premises, deadline for completion, etc.
Whether it is for:
- Luxury furniture (glass coffee table, marble element, antique wooden furniture, smoked oak furniture element custom designed by a cabinetmaker designer, a leather bed etc.),
- the works of art from your clients’ private collection (imposing statue in precious wood, master paintings, marble statuette, etc.),
- or the decorative elements (chandeliers, lighting fixtures, etc.)
we have the skills and technical expertise necessary to ensure the logistics of your clients’ development.
Our methodology and the innovative technologies we use allow us to take great care of the interior design you have designed for your clients’ real estate, respecting its curves and noble materials such as precious wood, the crystal, marble or any other high quality material, which will ensure the beauty, purity and elegance of this interior space.

How to ensure the safety and integrity of luxury furniture pieces and decorative objects during transport, especially those made from fragile materials such as glass, marble and precious wood?
At ESI INTERIOR DESIGNERS, we use specialized packaging and custom-made wooden boxes for each piece of furniture and decorative object. We use high-quality protective materials, such as foams and air cushions, to absorb shocks. Our handling teams are trained in delicate handling techniques and use white gloves to avoid any damage. In addition, our vehicles are equipped with special suspensions to minimize vibrations during transport.
What are the best practices for temporary storage of movable and decorative goods before their installation, in order to preserve their condition and value?
We have thermal controlled warehouses for the temporary storage of movable and decorative goods. These facilities are equipped with humidity and temperature control systems to preserve the integrity of sensitive materials. Each piece is carefully labeled and inventoried to ensure complete traceability. We also offer 24/7 monitoring services to ensure the safety of stored goods.
How to effectively coordinate the logistics of materials needed for interior design, taking into account delivery times, handling conditions and the specificities of different suppliers?
We work closely with our suppliers to schedule deliveries according to the needs of the project. We use project management software to track delivery times and coordinate the different stages of logistics. Our logistics teams are trained to handle materials with care and respect the specificities of each supplier. We also hold regular meetings with stakeholders to ensure smooth communication and optimal coordination.
What are the protocols to follow for customs clearance and administrative formalities during the international transport of movable and decorative goods of great value, in order to avoid any delay or complication?
We have a team dedicated to the management of customs and administrative formalities. We prepare all the necessary documents in advance and work with experienced customs brokers to facilitate the customs clearance process. We ensure that all local and international regulations are followed to avoid any delays or complications. In addition, we offer tax representation services for international projects to simplify administrative procedures for our clients.
