The Design phase…
We start with getting to know you, understanding your lifestyle, and doing a site visit to the lot that you plan on building on. Custom-designed plans accurately reflect the best-suited layout for your lot, land characteristics, engineering requirements, and of course your living requirements. Stock plans can often cause significant cost increases as it may not be suited for the lot that you plan on building on.
During the design phase, we will go through all the necessary planning and budgeting and start development on:
-
Concept Design Drawings
-
Preliminary Plans
-
Construction Drawings & Site Plans
Special considerations and options are reviewed throughout the planning process:
-
Budgets, timeline

Sustainability
