How we order designers
Designers are ordered on how much of their work and how much of their commercial terms they document. We do not rate design quality — that is a matter of taste, and we will not pretend otherwise.
The ranking parameters
These are the factors that determine the order of the listings you see, and how much each one counts. They are read directly from the same configuration the ranking itself uses.
| Factor | Weight | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Documented projects | 30 % | How many completed projects the designer documents, with images and scope. |
| Fee transparency | 25 % | Whether the designer publishes how they charge: hourly, per square metre, percentage of budget or fixed fee. |
| Documented specialism | 20 % | Whether the designer documents work of the type you are looking for. |
| Profile completeness | 15 % | How many verified fields the listing has. |
| Coverage of your district | 10 % | Whether the designer documents work in the district you selected. |
Paid placement
No company can pay to appear higher. We do not sell position, and we do not accept payment to include, exclude or reorder a listing.
Reviews and ratings
We do not publish star ratings or aggregate review scores, and reviews play no part in the ranking. We would rather show you what can be verified — registrations, documented scope and recorded prices — than a score we cannot stand behind.
Sites we own
We own and operate the following sites. When they appear on this site, they are shown in a separate section labelled “From our own network” and are not part of the ranked list.
- Interior Design Cyprus — Interiors that suit the light, the heat and the island.
- Renovate Cyprus — Renovating a home in Cyprus, room by room.
- Businesses Cyprus — Every business on the island, in one directory.
Where the data comes from
Listings are built from public registers (the Department of Registrar of Companies), professional bodies where membership can be checked, OpenStreetMap, and the companies’ own websites. Every field we hold records which source it came from and when.
If a listing is wrong, or you want it removed, use the removal form. We respond within 30 days.
Our other sites
This site is one of 10 Cyprus information sites we operate. We say so openly rather than pretending they are unrelated. See the full list.
