Design & Project Development

Creating a project and seeing through to the end can be an extremely scary undertaking.  The variables to consider are literally almost limitless.  You need the visions to not just pick the right products and materials, but also put them together in a way that is both pleasing to the eye and has that "certain something" that lets people know, this is your place.   You need to know realistically what your budget will allow and how to maximize its potential return.  Most importantly, you need to have a team of great people with a passion for making your dreams come true..... asking the questions you don't know you need to ask, seeing the little things you didn't know to look for, watching out for you when you didn't realize you needed to be looking, absorbing the stress of uncertainty so you can still focus on what's important in your life.

 

We have put together a process to guide you step by step, keep you focused and give you the knowledge you need to make the right decisions.  All projects have a beginning and this is where yours starts with us:

 

 

Step one... Window Shopping

This is the first step of your project....and one of the most exciting parts.  Free of charge, we spend about an hour one on one with you to help you to organize and compile your ideas so you can stay focused on your design and development goals going forward.  You will get partnered with one of our design specialist who will work with you creating an initial "wish list" for your project.  In this meeting we will talk about current trends, function and form while project planning, get direction on products and material that fit within your budget, get realistic ideas on standard project costs, and get a better understanding on construction process and timelines.

This is where it starts to get real!  In this phase you agree to contract our services for some initial planning.  You will be partnered with one of our designers who will come out to site measure your space and create virtual floor plans with 2 potential design concepts that will fit within your targeted budget.  Where applicable you will receive sketches, elevations and 3D drawings to help you truly visualize where your project can go.  We will meet back at our design show room to go over everything.  Letting you see samples of potential products and material we are thinking about for your project.  At the end of the design meeting you will receive a digital copy of the plans and sketches as well as a detailed estimated cost of your project.

Step two... Design & Estimate

Step three... Securing Services

At this point you should be ready to make an informed decision on the direction of your project.  If you like the ideas we have provided and want to move forward we will sign a contract for construction.  In this contract you will have every detail: project start date with estimated completion date, design fixture and finishes list, materials selection and requirements needed to complete construction.  We will also talk about initial deposit requirements and well as developing a completion based draw schedule.  At this point you will have the opportunity to meet and get to know your project manager for the job.  He will be your on-site point of contact for questions and expectations.  He is not just there to coordinate the subcontractors and over see job operations but also help you understand what is going on, why its happening and how the process works in real time.
