Typical Phases of Stages of Project Design and Development ("It's a process!"):
Schematic Design:
Conceptual designs are developed based upon the client's request and further discussions or meetings. Typically these drawings are generalized sketches or programmatic layouts of the proposed project and are reviewed by the client’s and architect to ascertain how these design options meet client’s basic goals.

Design development drawings are typically completed to a sufficient level of detail to allow us to refine the design and address structural issues or considerations.

Drawings and details are developed utilizing AutoCAD Architecture or Revit. The completed set of drawings and specifications are of sufficient detail to obtain construction contracts and all applicable permits/approvals.

Construction Administration: As part of our due diligence we remain available throughout the construction process to meet with clients, the General Contractor, and/or Town Officials having jurisdiction, and to generally observe the overall process of work and answer any questions that may arise during construction.
