Clarity from concept to construction
Clarity from concept to construction
Step 1
Discovery
Every project begins with a complimentary 20-minute discovery call – your chance to share your initial ideas, budget, and timeline. From there, we'll schedule a deeper dive with an onsite or online consultation to explore your goals in more detail. This comprehensive understanding then allows us to craft a custom design proposal tailored perfectly to your unique needs.

Step 2
Schematic design
We begin by reviewing local codes, zoning, and overall feasibility, gathering all existing property information, and preparing detailed as-built drawings to fully understand the existing conditions. This comprehensive groundwork allows us to launch into concept development, setting the tone and vision for your project. We engage early with the contractor and other key professionals to align on critical decisions and ensure the design is beautifully grounded in what's achievable.

Step 3
Design development
With the concept in place, we begin sourcing finishes, materials, and fixtures. We then prepare a comprehensive design presentation to expand on the established concept and visually express how it will be applied to your project.

Contract documents
A complete set of construction drawings and specifications is prepared, serving as a clear roadmap for your build team. These documents streamline bidding, budgeting, and coordination, ensuring seamless alignment on the design from day one. Permit drawings, if required, are also issued here for your contractor's submission.
