Whether you're looking for a complete transformation or a few key updates, we’ll dive into your preferences, discuss your goals, and explore design possibilities. This collaborative session sets the foundation for a design tailored specifically to you.
-
Once we’ve discussed your vision, we take the next step by formalizing our partnership. We’ll review the scope of work, design fees, project timeline, and expectations in detail, ensuring full transparency before moving forward. With the agreement signed and the retainer secured, we begin developing your design concept—exploring layouts, materials, finishes, and key elements that bring your vision to life. This phase is highly collaborative, allowing us to refine the design while considering both aesthetics and functionality.
-
With a finalized design in place, we transition into execution while serving as your dedicated representative. We manage the design implementation, oversee contractors, and ensure every decision aligns with the approved plan. Acting as your advocate, we coordinate timelines, review work for quality and accuracy, and address any challenges that arise. While you remain informed and in control, we take the lead in problem-solving, contractor communication, and maintaining design integrity—ensuring your vision is executed seamlessly and to the highest standards.
-
To ensure a seamless design process, we begin with a thorough site assessment, gathering precise measurements and evaluating the space for opportunities and potential challenges. During this walkthrough, we take note of architectural features, existing conditions, lighting, and structural considerations. If renovations are involved, we may bring in key trades for an initial discussion to address any technical aspects early on. The outcome is a comprehensive site survey, including detailed photos, dimensions, and notes, providing a strong foundation for the design planning process.
-
In this phase, we begin by presenting the initial creative direction to ensure we’re on the right track before diving into the specifics. We review moodboards, material inspirations, space planning ideas, and the overall design narrative tailored to your lifestyle. This allows us to align on the aesthetic direction before moving into detailed selections. Once we’ve confirmed the direction, we refine the design, finalizing the layout, materials, finishes, and color schemes. We provide you with the knowledge and resources needed for a successful build, preparing comprehensive documentation, including technical drawings, construction plans, and specifications. With a clear roadmap in place, you’ll have the confidence to navigate the construction process, while we remain available to offer expert support and guidance throughout.
-
In this phase, we refine and finalize key design elements, materials, and custom details, turning your vision into a tangible plan. During our Design Concept Reveal, we present the final design concepts, including floor plans, renderings, color schemes, material selections, and furniture and fixture choices. Custom pieces, millwork, and specialty details are also reviewed to ensure every element aligns with your vision. Together, we’ll walk through the details, making any final tweaks before moving forward. Once everything is approved, we’ll begin procurement and final detailing, marking the exciting transition from concept to reality and setting the stage for the next phase of your project.
-
At this stage, we fine-tune the design to ensure every detail is perfect. Based on your feedback, we make any necessary adjustments to layout, materials, finishes, or features to enhance the overall vision. This collaborative process ensures that the design aligns with your expectations and is fully optimized before moving forward to construction. It’s the final opportunity to make refinements and guarantee your space is exactly as you envision it.
-
With the design finalized, we move forward with procuring all the necessary materials, furnishings, and finishes. During this stage, we carefully source high-quality products that align with your vision, budget, and timeline. Our team handles the ordering and coordination with suppliers, ensuring everything is on track and ready for the next phase of construction. This step guarantees that all materials are secured and prepared, setting the stage for a smooth and efficient build.

During this phase, we support you in overseeing the progress and quality of your construction or renovation, ensuring you stay informed and in control. We guide you through site reviews, helping you assess work quality, track the schedule, and manage the budget effectively. If challenges arise, we provide expert advice and solutions, empowering you to make informed decisions. With our ongoing support and transparent communication, you can confidently navigate the process as we move closer to bringing your vision to life.
