Conceptual Design

It's the story you fall for.

Our designs stand out because they tell a good story. To find it, we dig into the history of a location and the culture of its neighborhood. Then we do the hard part—create the twist that makes people care. By focusing on concept and story first, we set a vision that gets everyone on board and guides every other decision we make.

Schematic Design

Rich flow—like gravy.

We shape the flow of our spaces by carefully locating interior walls, lighting and key design elements—like millwork, furniture and architectural finishes. We present this in a thorough design package—floor plans, reflected ceiling plans, elevations, hand sketches, design imagery—that you’ll sleep with because you love it so much.

Design Development

Pretty, even behind the walls.

We document every detail, from color and finishes, to plumbing fixtures and outlets, to vent grills and ceiling heights—even the stuff you can’t see. We present color renderings and final drawings of floor plans, reflected ceiling plans, finish plans and elevations, all drawn to exact scale and rendered in-house for bulletproof design integrity.

Construction Documentation

All the stuff you need to build it.

Pretty pictures are great, but only if they’re buildable. We provide design intent drawings of every plan and elevation needed to build out a project, and we meet with everyone on the team to make sure they understand the design. Our design intent drawings include:

Final Floor Plans
RCPs
Finish Plans
Power and data plans
Final elevations with finish tags and dimensions
Custom millwork and detail drawings
Final material specifications and schedules

FF&E and Specification Writing

Tastefully tricked out.

We get the finish right with final furniture, fixture and equipment selections. We handle the fabrication of prototypes and monitor all FF&E delivery and setup. Budget, specs and drawings are managed using Spexx software to make it easy on procurement. The end result is a holy binder filled with your sacred furniture scripture. Plus killer furnishings.

Procurement

Products, purchasing, and project management all in one sweep.

From the windows to the wall, our in-house procurement specialist gets into the wood grain and carpet knots of purchasing solutions and project management that match the energy of our designs and the specifics of your vision. With established relationships among only the best vendors, reviewing shop drawings and finish samples, and keeping track of the many product details that love to sneak off before the construction dust settles, we make procurement a part of the plan from the start.

Construction administration

We’re done when it’s perfect.

When construction begins, we make sure everything stays copasetic through weekly OAC meetings and site visits. We review all shop drawings, provide additional detail drawings for clarification, answer RFIs and coordinate the final FF&E installation. We stop when your interiors are everything we hoped, planned, sweated, cried and bled for.
