This is the foundational phase where ideas are translated into a clear architectural direction. During this stage, we conduct site analysis, zoning and code research, and feasibility assessments to ensure the project aligns with regulatory constraints and budget parameters. We develop preliminary floor plans, spatial layouts, and conceptual elevations that establish the overall form, scale, and functionality of the home. This phase is collaborative and iterative, focused on defining project goals, identifying opportunities and constraints, and creating a cohesive design vision that will guide all subsequent work.
Schematic design
As the design develops, we coordinate with licensed engineers as needed to validate structural integrity, mechanical systems, and overall build feasibility. This may include structural engineering for load-bearing elements, civil engineering for grading and drainage, and MEP (mechanical, electrical, and plumbing) consultation to ensure system performance and code compliance. Our role is to integrate engineering requirements seamlessly into the design, balancing technical necessity with architectural intent while maintaining cost efficiency and constructability.

Permitting
We manage the permitting process from submission through approval, acting as the primary liaison between the project and the relevant municipal authorities. This includes preparing and compiling required documentation, responding to plan review comments, and coordinating revisions when necessary. Our proactive approach helps minimize delays, ensure compliance with local building codes and zoning regulations, and keep the project timeline on track. By overseeing this process, we remove administrative burdens from our clients and provide clarity throughout regulatory approvals.
construction
During construction, we provide comprehensive project management to ensure the design is executed with precision and quality. We coordinate subcontractors, oversee scheduling, manage budgets, and conduct regular site inspections to maintain standards and accountability. Clear communication and active supervision allow us to address challenges quickly and keep progress aligned with both design intent and client expectations. From groundbreaking to final walkthrough, we manage each phase of construction to deliver a completed home that reflects the original vision.
