Preliminary Design Ideation
We start with a client download. We gather ideas and information from our clients. We genuinely listen to their needs and then we start the creative feedback process by mind-mapping a conceptual design.
Mood Boards
As conceptual designers, we believe that every design is a storytelling opportunity. After we have our initial meeting with the client, we set the stage with mood boards and schematic plans.
Working Drawings
We have state-of-the-art equipment allowing for us to fully demonstrate what your project will look like and more importantly, we clear plans with contractor specifications and a direct path for successful execution.
Renderings
Photorealistic renderings to help better convey design ideas for final approval.
Material Selection
All finishes and materials are carefully curated for each individual project. Every detail is thoughtful and deliberate as it relates back to the story we are conveying with your design.
Build/Install
We manage the installation process from beginning to end. Coordination with architect, engineer, contractor, design specialists, and all vendors throughout the process.
