Design Phases
PROJECT CONSULTING
Your Guide on the Shoreline
​
Expert guidance for owners, buyers, and contractors without a full design engagement: foundation evaluations, coastal building advice, pre-purchase reviews, and owner’s representation.
[AF] architectural feasibility
1
Can it be built on your site, to code, and on budget?
We check zoning, flood rules, and site conditions and give you realistic budget ranges up front.
[SD] schematic design
2
Early sketches and layouts set the size, flow, and character of your home. As architects with a building background, we keep every idea grounded in real cost and buildability.
[DD]
design development
3
Materials, systems, and structure are worked out in detail. We check choices against cost and buildability as we go, so the design holds up when it’s priced.
[CD] construction documents
4
Permit-ready drawings with the detail needed for approvals, pricing, and construction. With Design-Build, we build from them directly, with no separate bid phase.
[CA] construction administration
We stay involved during construction to answer questions and keep what gets built true to the design. With Design-Build, one team is accountable from drawing to finish.
