Schematic Design

 At the outset of your home design process, we prioritize transparency and clear communication to ensure a seamless experience. To facilitate this, we introduce a dedicated builder early in the process who will collaborate closely with you throughout both the design and construction phases. This integrated approach fosters a cohesive partnership, aligning your vision with practical execution, and ensures that all aspects of your project are addressed collaboratively from the very beginning.

Client Consultation & Needs Assessment

We meet with you (the client) to understand y goals, budget, lifestyle, and functional needs. This sets the project scope and expectations.

Site Analysis & Feasibility Study

We study the site’s physical characteristics—topography, orientation, access, utilities, zoning restrictions, environmental factors, and local regulations and a preliminary analysis evaluates whether the desired project is achievable within the site’s constraints and the client’s budget and schedule. 

Concept Design

We create digital models and plans outlining the building's form, layout, and spatial organization. This phase often includes:

  • Site plans
  • Floor plans
  • Exterior elevations and sections
  • Interior elevations

Preliminary Cost Estimate & Permitting and Approval

A basic cost projection is developed to ensure the concept stays within budget. This may involve consulting a qualified builder and/or quantity surveyor.

In some jurisdictions, a planning permit or zoning approval may be required before detailed construction documentation can begin.
