The design process of
a unique home starts with
a concept and is refined into construction
blueprints over a number of different steps.
Often clients start with ideas, sketches
or pictures that they have collected over
a period of time that show the look and
features in which they are interested. The
use of modern building materials and construction
techniques will usually allow the floor
plan to be integrated with the desired exterior
look.
Site specific design considers
the actual design of the house and its placement
on the property. This is incorporated into
construction blueprints which need to conform
with architectual guidelines and meet permiting
and engineering requirements as well as
local building codes.
