Process

Step 1

Listen

What's your vision? Your goals? Budget? Timeline? The process starts with listening. Initial dialogues and exercises to understand project needs.

Step 2

Research

The preliminary design phases are really one big research project. Zoning & code studies, visioning with imagery to explore styles, and conceptual diagrams to map spatial organization.

Step 3

Define

Now that your vision has been articulated and parameters set, we move to defining and detailing. Drawings, budgeting for contractor input, and permitting tailored to jurisdiction requirements.

Step 4

Resolve

The Define & Resolve phases are the most intense. Detailed construction documents serve as instruction manuals for contractors, followed by regular observational meetings during construction.

Step 5

Celebrate

There will be numerous celebrations along the way as decisions are made, materials are procured, and milestones are reached. Appreciating collaborative progress matters.

Step 6

Repeat

The design process is iterative, meaning that ideas are repeatedly explored until the solution is fully-baked. Refinement toward effective design solutions.
