We have experience with renovations, additions, basement excavations, historic restorations, and new homes and garages. Check out our highlighted projects below or our before and after portfolio.
Process
Step 1: Initial Consultation
You will meet with a creative licensed architect who will listen to your goals and the needs you wish to address in order to make your house work for you. We will review your design preferences, your projected budget, and discuss applicable zoning issues. The architectural will take approximately 60 – 90 minutes. See Frequently Asked Questions for more details.
We offer three meeting options for this consultation: virtual, in-office, or on-site.
- Virtual: $400
- At the RDG office (Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday): $400
- At the project site: $500
Step 2: Design Exploration
The Design Exploration℠ is a comprehensive study that develops multiple designs, presenting functionally creative and aesthetically exciting alternatives to achieve your goals and reflect your style. Together we will synthesize ideas to create a master plan for your project. Your architect will also do a zoning study and a budget projection to ensure that your project is creative, workable, and affordable.
Step 3: Construction Documents
We offer three levels of service to take you from start to finish:
- Outline Plan
This is our most affordable construction plan set. With this plan, we will provide the basics needed to obtain a building permit. - Full Plan
With the Full Plan, we expand the set of construction drawings to include additional design not required by codes, such as interior elevations and lighting plans. - Inspire Plan
The Inspire Plan is our most detailed and involved service option. We will provide assistance in specifying finishes as well as providing site observation and design services during construction.
Step 4: Construction Observation
The final stage in our process is construction observation. Depending on the level of service you select, your architect can be involved with the project from demo day all the way until the final punch-list. This includes attending meetings with the contractor to ensure that the project stays on track and assisting with any unforeseen issues that may come up.
