Architecture design, drawn through to the point of build.
I take a project from first sketch to a design development package ready for construction documentation — clarifying scope, testing feasibility, and resolving the design so nothing gets rebuilt later.
Four phases, one continuous line of thinking.
Concept
Site analysis, program, and early massing to establish a clear design direction.
Feasibility
Zoning, code, and budget checks so the concept is buildable before it's refined.
Schematic Design
Plans, sections, and elevations that fix layout, form, and material direction.
Design Development
Details and systems resolved into a coordinated package, ready for construction documents.
Design that's resolved before it's drawn for permit.
Most rework happens when concept decisions get revisited during construction documentation. I hold the design to a fixed, coordinated standard by the end of design development — so your CD team, or general contractor, is building from a settled set of decisions, not still making them.
A few projects along the way.
Infill Residence
Concept through DD for a two-story infill lot with tight setback constraints.
ADU Feasibility
Zoning and buildable-area study for a detached accessory unit.
Mixed-Use Concept
Early massing and program study for a ground-floor retail, upper-floor residential building.
