Process

Listen

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

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.

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.

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.

Celebrate

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

Repeat

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