How We Do It
Starting a project is always fun and exciting for us! As Architects, our job is to gather pertinent information about you, simplify that information, amplify it and unify it into a buildable project that fits your needs and budget. We achieve that by following a simple five step process:
Discovery
In the discovery phase we delve into your family's needs through discussion, questions, research and images.
Creative
Once we understand your needs we then begin our creativity. We explore types of design and architecture to meet your goals.
Development
General ideas are refined with material selection, systems, fixtures, and textures. We believe the best projects are those that are highly "figured out". These refinements are communicated verbally and through written drawings/specifications.
Construction
The design process is ready to come to fruition in the construction process! This splendid architecture is achieved through our skilled craftsmen.
Satisfied Customer
The goal is to improve your every day life- not just when the project is complete but for years to come.
