Our design process is structured into five transparent phases, ensuring your unique vision is captured, realized visually, and executed with technical precision.
Phase
1/5
This is the foundational phase where we define the 'what' and 'why' of your project. We conduct an in-depthexploration of your needs, desired lifestyle, and aesthetic goals to create the detailed program. This phaseincludes a comprehensive site analysis and review of property constraints to establish the parameters forthe new build.

Phase
2/5
We translate the program established in Phase 01 into the project's foundational concepts. This involvessiting the buildings on the property and developing initial floor plan layouts and 3D massing concepts.

Phase
3/5
The approved schematic design is refined and matured. We develop detailed floor plans, confirm code compliance, and move into intensive visualization. A key output of this phase is the creation of photorealistic 3D exterior and interior renderings and animations, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the final design vision.

Phase
4/5
Our interiors specialist works to coordinate finalized selections and develops photorealistic interior animations to communicate the complete aesthetic vision for your internal spaces, ensuring a cohesive design that aligns with the overall architecture.

Phase
5/5
We prepare the detailed drawings and specifications necessary to bid, build, and permit the project. This involves creating a complete set of technical construction drawings and coordinating with all necessary engineers and consultants.
