In your intial meeting with our architect we get to know you, your desires for your new home, your current plans for your new home. This meeting is critical because this is where we get our info about your new home. During this meeting we get enough info to produce the best preliminary drawings possible and these preliminary drawings are based on your desires and needs. Because every new home build is different the fees for our architectural services can only be determined during this type of consultation. After your free consultation we will draw up a contract that will layout all of our architectural and design fees and will setup a schedule on which we will provide your different drawings, etc. to you.

The preliminary drawings phase is one of the most import stages that we go through. The preliminary drawings will determine the size, look and structure of your new home. The preliminary drawings include floor plans, elevations and perspective sketches. This is the point at which you need to make sure the home will look how you want it to.

Once the preliminary drawings are approved by you we move on to make the working drawings. The working drawings are used to pull permits and tell our construction team exactly how the house is to be built.

The working drawings allow us to price out your new home. Once the working drawings are complete we will help you choose the different materials that you will be using. The materials used will determine the actual cost of your new home.

A large part of your design is meeting your new home's needs. We always include things like bringing in enough power so that you won't be limited in the future by the amount of power you have. Likewise we look at your needs in terms of telecommunications and like systems and make recommendations that will keep you as current as can be accomplished.

Once your working drawings are complete and you have approved them we then apply for the appropriate permits and construction begins as soon as we have the permits.
