THE CREATIVE PATH
All projects start with a little detective work so we can begin the design work with thoughtful and clear direction. We gather information about your goals, spacial allowances, budget, desired level of quality for the design and schedule. We conduct internal company interviews as needed and analyze the existing space conditions to gather this information. From here, we analyze and organize this information and create a design program that captures all important objectives and goals for the project.
CONCEPTUAL DESIGN
Our creative process begins with a story and concept. It is a blended story of your brand, the context of the building & site and the culture of the neighborhood around it. Getting the story right sets the foundation for creating a unique show stopping project and will guide all future project decisions. We capture this story through conceptual inspiration imagery and preliminary interior architectural finishes.
SCHEMATIC DESIGN & PRELIMINARY PRICING
We establish the locations of all new and existing walls, spaces and key design elements, such as locations for millwork, furniture layouts and focal architectural finishes. The result? A project with killer flow and major design oumpf. All this is presented through the use of floor plans, elevations, hand sketches, concept imagery and preliminary interior architectural and furnishing finish selections with budgetary pricing.
DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
We dig a little deeper into the design details here. We work through all details - from ceiling heights, millwork details, finish transitions, lighting fixtures and outlets locations as well as furniture types and locations. We present final floor plans, key elevations and color rendered perspectives that wow.
