What We Need From You

To create accurate and compliant architectural drawings, we need specific information from you.

1

Site Address & Project Scope

The property’s full address along with whether you’re planning a new build, addition, or remodel so we can design within the right context.

2

Concept or Sketch

Any rough layout, hand drawn sketch, or digital concept that shows your initial vision and functional needs.

3

Dimensions & Room Requirements

Desired room sizes, number of rooms, and any specific features you want to include.

4

Existing Plans

Current architectural drawings or site layouts for remodels or additions so we can integrate with the existing structure.

5

Reference Photos

Images of the property, surrounding area, or design inspirations that guide our style and detailing.

6

Local Guidelines

Any zoning regulations, HOA rules, or city requirements that must be considered in the design.

How We Work With You

Our 5-Step Collaborative Process

We follow a proven, permit-oriented design workflow that ensures clarity, efficiency, and approval-ready results.

Project Input

You provide the essentials, a rough sketch whether available, your project goals, the property address, any zoning info, existing floor plans for remodels, and reference ideas that reflect your vision.

Discovery Consultation

We schedule a call or email exchange to align your design goals with local code requirements, site constraints, and functionality. This stage ensures we build on solid, feasible foundations.

Concept Design

We develop initial floor plan options and key architectural concepts. These early drafts help visualize the layout, proportions, and how the space will work.

Design Refinement

Using your feedback, we refine the drawings into a complete permit ready set. We adjust layout details, resolve any conflicts, and verify code alignment before finalizing.

Final Delivery

You receive a complete PDF drawing set, optimized for submission to your city or county. CAD/Revit files can be provided for engineering coordination or contractor use.

Role in Permit Drawings

Architectural drawings are often the first step in the permit journey. They establish the layout, form, and code compliance foundation on which all other disciplines structural, MEP, civil are built. Without accurate architectural plans, the permitting process can stall due to incomplete information or failed code checks. Our drawings are specifically formatted for permit officials, making reviews faster and approvals easier.
