Schematic Design

Now the real fun begins.  The computer has revolutionized the way we design homes.  We used to have to show clients 2 dimensional representations of how their house would look.  We found that many people had a hard time visualizing their home this way. Now we use 3d modeling software for all of our design work.  This gives our clients the tools to better understand what their house will look like.

 
 
So at this point we develop a 3d model of the site and place conceptual models on that site.  Part of this process involves developing conceptual floor plans that match those models.  Once we’ve taken our first stab at a conceptual design we meet with you to discuss it. We will supply you with software that can enable you to view the design from any angle.  You can zoom in or out and look at it from any perspective.  This also allows you to compare options in real time.Meeting notes
 

We continue this process of design iterations modifying both the floor plans and the building model to achieve a design that meets your needs.
