How We Work

Our Services

A personalized approach tailored to your specific situation, timeline, and budget. We guide every project seamlessly from initial concept through permit approval.

Custom Home Design

From initial concept to construction documents, we design homes that reflect your lifestyle, your site, and the Colorado landscape. Every detail is considered — from how morning light enters your kitchen to how the floorplan supports your daily routines.

Additions & Renovations

Expand and transform your existing home with designs that feel original, not added-on. Whether you need a new primary suite, an expanded kitchen, or a second story, we integrate new spaces seamlessly with your home's existing character.

ADU Design

Accessory dwelling units that maximize your property's potential. From guest houses and home offices to rental units, we navigate zoning requirements and design compact spaces that live large.

Construction Documents

Complete, permit-ready documentation for builders. Our detailed construction document sets include structural plans, schedules, sections, and specifications — everything your contractor needs to build with confidence.

Permitting

We manage the full permitting process — preparing code-compliant drawing sets, submitting to the building department, and responding to review comments. We handle the back-and-forth so you don't have to.

How We Get There

01

Existing Conditions

We start by understanding your site and your existing home. This includes but is not limited to site surveys, topography assessment, regulatory requirements verification, photo documentation, measurements, and 3D modeling using Autodesk Revit. This phase establishes the foundation for design by identifying parameters and opportunities.

Schematic Design

This is where we collaboratively explore your vision, hopes, and priorities. We develop layouts with floor plans and exterior modeling, iterating on the design to reflect your needs, lifestyle, and aesthetic preferences. The goal is to achieve your approval on the overall direction before advancing to the next phase.
