Process

Our main goals when working with clients revolve around creating a space that makes your life more enjoyable and simpler.

First, we work to build a friendship with you and your family to convey an architectural expression that is reflective of you and your unique interests and needs.

Secondly, we enlist our training in Passive House construction to put together the critical systems that will allow you to lower your carbon footprint, save money on utility bills, and have a more durable building.

Listen

We hope to develop a friendship and digest the types of experiences you hope to have in your new space. Bring your photos, artwork and favorite stories.

2

Collaborate

We take our notes and start to flush out several ideas that we feel convey your goals. Then we get to sit down together and hopefully work out a single path forward.

3

Evaluate

After everyone is on the same page for the design direction, we share the plan with our partners and engineers to pull together a final price and finalize construction details.

Go Time!

The final and most exciting part of the process is when we start to build! Materializing your ideas into your dream space is often the most gratifying part.
