Our capabilities include renovating or adding to existing houses, designing new construction homes, or constructing a custom-designed house from the ground up.

our design process


From the first consultation to the final construction drawings, we guide you through every phase of your project, ensuring that your vision comes to life with ease and precision.

Step One: Initial Consultation & Home Review


Our process begins by knowing you and your home. In this stage, we dig into your objectives, lifestyle, and requirements — whether it’s an update for elderly parents, working from home, or a kitchen or bath remodel. We want to know the purpose of your project so that the design works for you now and long-term. Once we’ve collected this information, we measure and model your home to give you an up-to-date 3D map of what’s already there. In this phase, you’ll have an agreed-upon outline for the work ahead, which will set a foundation for what's to come.

Step Two: Schematic Design & Vision Creation


This is where the creativity begins! We take your ideas and translate them into visual concepts, sketching out multiple options for your renovation, addition, or new build. Through this collaborative process, we refine the design together, combining elements that reflect your needs and preferences. By the end of this stage, you’ll have a final design that you can present to builders for pricing or use in zoning and permitting processes. This phase is about turning your vision into a clear, actionable plan that balances beauty with practicality.

Step Three: Construction DocumentatioN


In this final step, we create the detailed construction drawings your builder will use to bring your vision to life. These documents include everything needed to move forward—from precise measurements to exterior material specifications and technical details.
We make sure that all your design requirements get documented so that your builder has a clear road map for building your dream home.

Working with Nicole was great! She was willing to meet on site and even take on smaller projects to help us through some permit drawings. I highly recommend hiring Nicole. She’s communicative, thorough, and her drawings are top notch.
