Every project follows a proven five-phase process designed to keep clients informed, involved, and confident from the first conversation through permit approval.
Before design begins, we do the research. Site and structure evaluation, zoning analysis, and a thorough review of local permitting requirements ensure the project starts with a clear and accurate picture of what is possible. This phase sets the foundation for everything that follows and prevents costly surprises down the road.
This is where the design vision takes shape. Working closely with you, we develop site plans, floor plans, and exterior concepts that reflect both your goals and the character of the site. Concepts are explored, reviewed, and refined until the design feels right, not just functional, but genuinely inspiring.
With the schematic direction approved, we move into deeper detail. Materials, structural systems, mechanical coordination, and consultant integration are all resolved in this phase. You will see your home come into full focus, with every major decision made thoughtfully and transparently.
A complete, precise set of drawings that your contractor can actually build from. We take pride in the quality and clarity of our construction documents, and they are the single most important tool in ensuring the home you build is the home you envision.
We manage the submittal process from start to finish. With deep familiarity across Sonoma County jurisdictions, including the City of Healdsburg, Cloverdale, Windsor, Santa Rosa, and unincorporated county properties.
