Design Process
CONSULTATION AND CONTRACT
Client interview to discuss design needs, style/aesthetic, project’s investment, and time frame. A design contract is subsequently sent with a request for retainer to proceed with the scope of work.
DESIGN CONCEPTS
Research to determine the ideal design solutions that meet the functional and aesthetic needs of the project. Initial designs are presented as style boards with inspirational images. Space planning with floor plans, furniture layouts, and lighting layouts are drawn.
DOCUMENTATION
Materials and finishes are presented to clients for approval. Detailed drawings of floor plans, interior elevations, 2D or 3D renderings are provided to communicate the design concept.
IMPLEMENTATION
Purchasing, project management and installation phase. We manage the entire project from beginning to end. We meet with contractors and suppliers throughout the process to ensure that the design concept is properly implemented. A final punch list is presented to verify everything is completed before sending final payment to the contractor.
