Assess It

This foundational service begins with a comprehensive, personalized consultation where we engage deeply with the homeowner to understand their unique vision, lifestyle needs, and budget constraints. Whether embarking on a remodel to enhance an existing space, planning an addition to accommodate a growing family, or conceptualizing a new home build from the ground up, our process starts with a thorough site assessment. This includes precise field measurements, detailed photography, and video documentation to capture the current state of the property. For new constructions, we incorporate topography evaluations and zoning considerations to ensure feasibility. Following this, we develop 2–3 initial concept sketches that vividly illustrate potential designs, blending creativity with practicality to reflect the homeowner's aspirations.

The benefits to the homeowner are multifaceted. By starting with a no-obligation exploration, this phase empowers clients to visualize possibilities without immediate financial commitment, reducing decision-making stress and allowing for informed choices. It also mitigates common pitfalls like scope creep by establishing clear parameters early, ensuring the final concepts align with realistic expectations. Ultimately, homeowners gain valuable insights and deliverables—such as concept sketches and site reports—that can be used independently or as a springboard for further development, saving time and resources while fostering confidence in the design journey.
