Our Architectural Design Process

A clear, structured approach from concept through installation—aligning design, materials, and execution from the outset.

Each phase includes defined deliverables, allowing projects to move forward with clarity and confidence.

01 — Intake & Alignment

We begin by understanding the space, priorities, and overall direction.

Deliverables

• Project Intake Summary
• Site Measurements & Existing Conditions
• Spatial Requirements (Program Brief)
• Budget & Timeline Alignment

02 — Concept Design

We establish the architectural direction and spatial approach.

Deliverables

• Initial Layout Concepts
• Spatial Planning & Flow
• Early Material Direction

03 — Design Development

We refine the design into a set of clear, buildable options.

Deliverables

• Concept Renderings
• Refined Layouts
• Material Palette (FENIX, Cleaf, etc.)
• Good / Better / Best Options
• Preliminary Budget Alignment

04 — Client Presentation

We finalize the design for selection and approval.

Deliverables

• Client-Ready Presentation Package
• Final Renderings
• Selected Design Direction
• Confirmed Materials

05 — Specification & Documentation

We translate the approved design into precise, build-ready information.

Deliverables

• FF&E Schedule (fixtures, materials, systems)
• Finish Schedule (material placement)
• Millwork / Shop Drawings
• Lighting & Integration Plans
• Full Project Specification Package

06 — Contract & Project Lock

All variables are finalized to ensure a controlled execution phase.

Deliverables

• Contract & Scope Agreement
• Final Specifications & Pricing
• Production Timeline

07 — Production & Coordination

We align manufacturing, materials, and logistics.

Deliverables

• Order Placement & Manufacturer Coordination
• Fabrication Alignment
• Shipping & Logistics Planning

08 — Delivery & Installation

We support execution to ensure the design is built as intended.

Deliverables

• Installation Coordination
• On-Site Design Support
• Punch List (final adjustments)

09 — Project Closeout

The project is completed, documented, and supported long-term.

Deliverables

• Installation Completion Confirmation
• Final Documentation
• Warranty Coverage
• As-Built Records (as applicable)
