Schedule a Consultation

Have you asked yourself...

We know our house needs a change, but where do we start?

We have so many ideas, which do we tackle first?

What will this project really cost?

We help answer these questions (and more) to help you plan the best course of action for your project.

We start every project with a consultation to determine your project's unique objectives and parameters before considering design. Our process has been refined to give you a greater understanding of the design/documentation/build process while enhancing your knowledge to make more informed decisions on what your project may look like, leaving you less stressed. These informed decisions can reduce your risk of losing control of the project with runaway costs that exceed your budget, having to make decisions "on the fly" without the necessary background knowledge and with the project taking much longer than you had anticipated. You also reduce your risk of settling for a design you don't like or failing to make optimal use of your home and site.

After our initial consultation reveals what makes your project unique to you, we'll present a plan to move forward that gets you organized, your project designed and ready for construction, and your contractor well-informed. Our architectural services packages are curated for your needs, from developing and refining your optimal design, creating your document set for permitting and construction, and advocating for you during the execution of the design during construction.
