Our award-winning team specializes in creating beautiful homes, new from the ground up or by renovation to transform your existing house into a home that you love.
Renovations
Renovation design begins with an assessment of your needs and a discussion of ideas and possibilities; a design budget is then prepared based on your project’s scope of work. Renovation means working with some of what you have existing, and completely transforming it into the home you want. Design determines what is needed, what is possible, what styles you love, and how we can bring it to life. We follow a set of steps through the design work to assure that we can show you in detail and with certainty what your new spaces will look like and what your renovation will cost, as all critical decisions have been made. The complete experience of our renovation design delivers to you a set of design documents that can be implemented by any professional builder.
Custom Home Design (New Construction)
Our full-service design for new custom homes means we start from scratch, with your property and your ideas, to create a beautiful functional home that reflects your lifestyle. We will handle all permitting, and consultant coordination, through to complete interior design. If you have house plans already, we can review them to ensure they are perfect for your family. Then we can dive into the interior design details to ensure that your home is everything that you have dreamed, down to the finest details. Our complete home design approach will deliver you a perfectly executed design; a product of the thorough planning and development that we are able to accomplish when we get to start at the very beginning with you. Integrated design is the best approach not only for great design but to reduce costly afterthoughts, as when designed together from concept, the structural and aesthetic components work together. All drawings and documentation needed for submission to attain a building or development permit are prepared.
Developments
Our development services can be as small as a duplex or multiplex on a property, as large as a multi-family townhome development, or a significant property subdivision plan. The process begins by exploring the property in question and reviewing existing zoning to determine what is possible. If existing zoning does not permit the project goals to be achieved, we will engage in city discussion to determine if rezoning, subdivision, OCP amendments, or alternative solutions might be possible. Our experience in dealing with city staff will allow us to provide options for the best utilization of the property. We can assist with city applications and coordination in all instances.
Commercial Design
Commercial design can be initiated for brand new spaces, or as part of a leasehold or tenancy improvement plan. Working within the parameters of corporate branding and design to create fresh new looks for businesses (retail, outlet, office space, studio, etc.), we develop a complete design package to create a beautiful backdrop in which to conduct your business. Components often include concepts for displays, cash desk area, shelving, hang rails and tables, storefronts, and signage. The design package consisting of construction drawings, millwork drawings, materials selections, and fixtures selections will include everything needed for your contractor to successfully execute the design.
