Our five stage design build process

Pre-Design sets the foundations for your design-build or renovation project, and it all starts with a chat. Book your free, no-obligation consultation to discuss your ideas, requirements and challenges.

By starting with a clear plan and thorough feasibility checks, we set the stage for a smooth and successful project. Together, we will:

Define Project Goals:
We will agree your key objectives and the scope, requirements, and other details.

Feasibility Assessment:
To make sure we can turn your ideas into reality we will:

  • Evaluate your budget constraints.
  • Review zoning and code requirements.
  • Talk through your site conditions or challenges

Every detail of our design should align with your goals and vision. We will also include consideration for any energy-efficient options.

Conceptual Design:

  • Develop initial design concepts.
  • Ensure design ideas align with budget, site constraints, building code, etc.

Schematic Design:

  • Create detailed design drawings, including floor plans, elevations, and site plans.
  • Provide a clear representation of the proposed project layout including timelines.

Design Review:

  • Allow you time for review the designs.
  • Regular review meetings to refine the design.
  • Design sign-off only when the design meets your needs and expectations.

We turn your approved design into a build-ready plan, setting the stage for a smooth construction process

Design Refinement:

  • Finalize all design details, including architectural, structural, and building service plans.
  • Present an estimated timeline taking into consideration seasonal weather conditions and current supply chain timeframes;
