We book a visit with you to assess the site’s characteristics, including available space, zoning regulations, and any potential challenges.
We work with you to create a preliminary design concept that includes floor plans, architectural drawings, and an overall vision for the project. Our professional creative services include 3D drawing of interior/exterior environments and scaled interior design plans.
We work closely with a team of collegial architects and engineers to provide technical expertise for our design vision. Our design team develops plans, including structural, electrical, and plumbing specifications as the basis for the construction work. Anticipating the permitting and code compliance aspects of the project also enter into consideration while developing plans.
Obtaining the necessary permission from local authorities is a crucial step in the process. The design team takes charge of any necessary permits and code compliance, and guides you through the process of gaining approval for new construction and additions to existing structures. We typically also handle the office visits on your behalf.
