OUR PROCESS

01. - DISCOVERY


We begin our process by getting to know you. We ask you questions designed around how you live your life today and how you’d like to live in the future. We focus on your likes and dislikes in your current home including, colors, lighting, family habits, privacy, at home work requirements, hobbies and rooms that are most important to you.

This discussion takes place over a conference call or, if local to our area, we are glad to meet in person. This meeting requires one to two hours of your time.

02. - DESIGN & REVIEW: FLOOR PLAN


The design process begins with a draft interior floor plan - how the rooms will be situated and the manner in which the house flows from room to room. Overall design considerations such as whether the garage will be detached or attached, split bedroom floor plan vs. combined, multi-purpose rooms, etc are decided upon.

After we’ve designed your initial floor plan we’ll review it with you, answer any questions and make changes until your fully satisfied with the design.

03. - DESIGN & REVIEW: EXTERIOR


After the overall floor plan has been finalized, we begin to build more detail into the interior and start the exterior design.

This is where more interior detail such as kitchen layout, utilities, fireplaces, entertainment centers, and master bath layout are further defined.

In this phase we also begin the exterior design - wall heights, exterior doors, windows, siding materials, porches, patios, decks, etc., are defined.

This phase concludes with your review and sign-off of the total design. This phase may require several iterations depending upon the package purchased.

04. - FINALIZE


After the floor plan and exterior design is complete, 2D construction drawings are generated. These include all schedules necessary to obtain a building permit from your local jurisdiction. For a list of included schedules, please click here.

If your plans require engineering, this step will be completed after the preliminary construction drawings are complete. We will update the construction drawings to encompass the engineer’s specifications and at that time, the construction drawings will be finalized.

All engineering is done by a local and licensed structural engineer.

Why Pay for Interior Renderings?

Building your own home is a big investment in time and money. This endeavor can be stressful and often feel like guesswork - how will my home look and feel when it is eventually built?

Interior renderings are ideal for understanding how your home will look and feel spatially, how it flows from room to room, if it has good natural light or is too dark, and how architectural features are used throughout (built-ins, fireplaces, niches, ceilings, etc.).

Interior renderings are not intended to take the place of an interior designer (who is much more specific to materials and colors) - instead, they help ensure the overall theme and tone of the home is what you’re envisioning.
