Like residential design commercial projects also require a collaboration between the architect and the client. A large difference with commercial properties is. As a registered architect specializing in custom residential, remodeling and additions, I believe the design process is a joint venture and collaborative effort between the owner and architect.
Working with the owners wants and needs, my role is to provide direction, options and solutions to achieve the owners vision for their project. The final design will address the functionality in plan, budget and the desired aesthetic for a comprehensive solution. My mission is to work in collaboration with clients, to achieve their vision in a residential remodeling project.
That is, to provide solutions that meet the clients goals and objectives relative to functionality in plan and an aesthetic that compliments the project. My philosophy is to start each project using sound design principles as well as addressing areas of energy conservation, environmental awareness, and sustainability.

Residential design is as a collaboration between the architect and the client.
The architect takes the client's needs and aesthetic preferences utilizes his knowledge of space, light, materials and visual principles to design a home or living area that not only meets the client's expectations but also meets all required building codes and neighborhood specifications.
Once the basic structure has been designed and is in place, we can introduce an interior designer or kitchen designer to assist in choosing the right textures, colors and placement of furnishings to create a comfortable environment in which to relax, live, or work.

A: Survey or Site Plan of Property (may be available/rom city).
Required for any work outside the footprint of the existing house.
If not available, will need to check with city if one is required or if we can provides a measured drawing of the existing and the new addition.
B: Dimensions of Existing House.
Can use existing working drawings if available.
Typically, working drawings are not available, then it is necessary to measure the existing house or related areas.
This is typically discussed at initial meeting.
