Step 1: Pre-Design

Establishes the foundation for the project through review of existing conditions, code and zoning requirements, site constraints, and overall goals.

Step 2: Schematic Design

Focuses on layout options, building form, orientation, and site response to define the overall design direction.

Step 3: Design Development

Refines the selected design through further development of the layout, dimensions, and key project decisions.

Step 4: Construction Documentation

Prepares the drawing set for permitting and construction, clearly communicating the design to the city, contractor, and consultants.

Step 5: Permitting

Includes preparation and submission of permit documents, along with responses to review comments or required revisions when requested.

Step 6: Construction Observation

Provides support during construction through clarification of drawings, response to questions, and continuity of design intent as needed.

Pricing:

Pricing is structured as a flat fee for Pre-Design through Construction Documentation, based on the project’s scope, complexity, and effort. Permitting and Construction-phase services are billed hourly.
