01 · RESIDENTIAL DESIGN

Make more of
the home you have.

Home renovations

Consider how existing rooms could work together more naturally. A renovation brief may address circulation, kitchen and living spaces, daylight, storage or the relationship between indoors and outdoors.

Design begins by understanding what you value about your home, what is missing and what you want to change. The proposed scope can then guide investigations, design development and documentation.

Home additions

When you need more space, an addition should be considered as part of the whole home. Access, proportions, connections between rooms and the existing building all belong in the first conversation.

Comparing expansion with improvements inside the current footprint can help establish a useful direction before a detailed design is fixed.

02 · EARLY FEASIBILITY

Understand the possibilities
before committing to a design.

An early study brings the property, goals, budget, schedule and potential approvals into the same discussion. It can help clarify whether your initial idea needs refining or whether alternative approaches deserve exploration.

A useful starting point

Bring the property address, any available plans or surveys, photographs and a short description of your priorities. Recommendations and the extent of investigation depend on the agreed commission.
