Process

I'm committed to providing a transparent and collaborative process, ensuring that you're informed and empowered every step of the way. The process below is how typical projects are phased to allow appropriate time for decision making and ensuring the design meets all requirements set forth by building codes.

Phase 1: Initial Consultation and Schematic Design

This is where we get to know each other and your vision for the project. We'll discuss your needs, budget, and style preferences. I'll then develop preliminary design concepts that capture your vision and site conditions. We'll collaborate on these ideas, refining them until we have a clear direction for the project.

Phase 2: Design Development

Here, we'll take those initial concepts and develop them into a more detailed design. This includes creating floor plans, elevations, and 3D visualizations. We'll also start to consider materials and finishes. This is an iterative process, with plenty of opportunities for your feedback and input.

Phase 3: Construction Documentation

Once the design is finalized, I’ll prepare detailed construction documents. These drawings and specifications provide the roadmap for the contractor to build your project. I’ll also assist with obtaining any necessary permits.

Phase 4: Construction Administration

During construction, I'll act as your advocate, ensuring that the project is built according to the plans and specifications. I'll conduct regular site visits, answer questions from the contractor, and help resolve any issues that arise.

Throughout the entire process, I'll keep you informed and involved, ensuring that your vision is brought to life.
