Our Process

Driven by purpose,
designed for tomorrow

We believe a better process leads to better outcomes for both your home and your budget. That’s why we offer a structured pathway, multiple service entry points, and continuous value engineering along the way.

1

Initial Consultation

It starts with a conversation. We’ll walk through your wish-list, your block, your budget, and what you want to get out of the build, now and long term. This session helps us shape a smarter, realistic path forward.

Fee Proposal & Design Agreement

After the initial consult, we provide a detailed fee proposal, outlining our full design and preconstruction
service. This includes:

  • Design & drafting
  • All consultants (engineering, energy reporting, soil testing, surveyors)
  • Building permit coordination
  • Early-stage project value management


If accepted, we move into a formal design agreement.

Note: Clients bringing their architect or designer can still engage us at this stage for a technical preconstruction service, focused on buildability, performance alignment, and compliance, without duplicating design.

Concept Design & Outline Estimate

We collaborate with our in-house architect to develop your first concept. Once drafted, we deliver a detailed outline estimate based on live trade feedback. This ensures cost clarity early, helping you avoid overdesign and allowing for informed adjustments.
