The project starts with your vision. We listen to learn and understand your goals and values. We meticulously work to uncover your design program, preferred building aesthetic, interests, discuss your project schedule and budget. Through program diagrams, questionnaires and concept boards we capture your ideal building environment. This process forms the foundation and informs design decisions for the entire project.

Every project we design is unique and one of a kind. This requires a workplan based on your goals and needs for the project. We develop a workplan with you that will highlight your goals, the project schedule, milestones and tasks that will be completed during each phase of the project. The plan becomes the framework for the project and team to ensure a successful design and construction process.

Grounded with your vision, program and project plan, we work to discover key project opportunities based on your site, surrounding context, natural site features, research and evaluation of record drawings. These opportunities become the structure for smart, efficient and sustainable design decisions that we’ll be making together to produce good design.

Our design process thrives on collaboration. Collaboration between the client and architect. Collaboration with project stakeholders, contractors, interior designers, engineers, consultants and review agencies. Through all phases of design, we schedule meetings to present and build on design progress. We work to update and refine our design based on your project feedback. Here we will explore master plans, develop functional floor plans to meet your program goals and needs, create architectural spaces that will inspire, design millwork to create spirited work spaces, develop lighting to enhance building features and specify material that will create a unique and timeless building environment.

The key to a successful build requires a talented builder that is organized, understanding and reliable. We work with you to interview contractors that can meet these key requirements for the project. Key to a success build, we participate during the construction phase through attend meetings with the project team to review construction progress, address site conditions, construction coordination details, review key submittals and shop drawings to ensure a quality build as your design comes to life.
