Our Process
How Your Home Takes Shape
You do not need to know every detail of construction before you begin. You do need a clear understanding of the decisions ahead, the people responsible, and what comes next. That is what our process is designed to provide.
01
Discovery and Homesite
We begin with your priorities, budget, and ideal timeline. We discuss the land you own—or the property you are considering—and how it may shape the home. If you are still searching, Heather can help you explore homesites with your plans in mind.
02
Design and Selections
We shape the design around your priorities and the property, considering the layout, exterior, cabinetry, materials, and finishes as one connected whole. Along the way, we explain how selections affect function, cost, and the construction schedule.
03
Pricing and Preconstruction
Before construction begins, we review the scope, pricing, and proposed schedule. We coordinate with trade partners and identify selections that require early decisions or longer lead times. You should understand the work being planned and the decisions still ahead.
04
Construction
As your home takes shape, we coordinate the trades and work on site while keeping design decisions connected to construction. When a proposed change affects cost or timing, we discuss those implications with you before moving forward.
05
Final Walkthrough and Handover
We walk through the home together, review any remaining items, and explain the operation and care of its systems and finishes. This is an opportunity to ask questions and become familiar with your new home before move-in.
