Residential Remodeling

The most common engagement we have is when a client works with us to remodel their current home. Whether this is remodeling an existing space or adding new space this is where our experience pays off. We can handle any and all interior remodels including kitchen design, bathroom design and everything in between. We serve as a direct project manager for construction trades and we work with a host of fantastic suppliers who we partner with for each project.

Our goal is to accomplish each project on-time and on-budget, while accomplishing our clients goals.

The Process

Phase I

DREAMING

  • We meet and learn about your dreams for the project, your budget, timeline, family living needs, personal style, and more.
  • We take photos and measurements of your home and review drawings and contractor estimates.
  • We share back-and-forth images, Pinterest-pins, sketches, and inspiration boards to start honing in on your design goals.

Phase II

CONCEPTUAL DESIGN

  • We sketch layouts, generate floor plans, and aim to create the perfect remodel solution for your needs.
  • We add color, finish materials, lighting and then refine these ideas with you until we arrive at the perfect solution.

Phase III

DESIGN DEVELOPMENT

Ultimately our mission during this phase is three-fold:

  1. Check in with the contractor regularly to ensure everything is built and/or installed the way it was designed.
  2. Though we certainly wish construction was always a flawless process, remodeling involves tearing-down and exposing what’s behind the existing walls/ ceilings/ floors/foundations / etc, and issues almost always arise and adjustments have to be made. Our job is not to expect perfection, but rather join forces with the contractor so we can, as a team, understand the issues as they arise, make informed decisions on how to adjust, and keep the project tracking towards competition on-time and on-budget.
  3. And fundamentally, because the construction process can be stressful at times, we’re on call for you throughout to answer your questions and assist in any way possible.
