Phase I; Programming and Conceptual Design. Here we will listen carefully to your ideas and preferences. We also conduct a thorough review of your building site as well as prepare floor plans and elevations, sufficiently detailed to convey the size, layout and character of your home. We will also provide and coordinate all assistance necessary to submit your design to any type of Review Board or Governing Agency required.
Phase II; Preliminary Budgeting, Design Development Documents. Throughout this phase we will attempt to design a house that fits within your budget by providing you with an independent cost analysis. Once your conceptual design meets your approval, we then take your "Conceptual Sketches" and further develop them onto our cad system.
Phase III; Construction Documentation. This is the phase whereby we concentrate on the "details" of both interior and exterior. We also coordinate all of our drawings with our Structural Engineer as well as with our Landscape Architect. Throughout this phase you will also be guided through our "Selections Process" which will focus on the selections of items such as plumbing fixtures, appliances, flooring, amongst other finishes. These selections will be coordinated onto the schedule sheet of our drawings as well as into our specifications.
Phase IV; Bidding and Negotiating. Here we provide assistance to the builder(s) that will be bidding or pricing the documents for construction.
Phase V; Construction Administration. This phase is the longest as it will continue through the duration of construction. The construction of a home typically takes 12 to 18 months. Some of the services we provide during this phase are site visitations, project field reports, review and certification of draw requests, builder / client technical support, building trade coordination, and various on site client meetings.

"You managed to get everything I mentioned in all my notes. Good job!"
"I am extremely pleased with the design and architectural plans you drew for our new home."
"The nicest thing I have to say is that I am not the least bit worried about being an absentee home builder."
"I think the house that you designed is magnificent, well supported, and extremely well thought out."
"The house, in fact, turned out better than they thought it would. The architect was fun to work with. We told him what we wanted and he did it. He was very receptive to our ideas, and he was excited by the look", Jane says. "It was just amazing, because he sent us pictures by email during construction."
