We like to see all your ideas, so our initial step is to have a meeting, normally on the project’s site. We also like review any photos, Idea-books, boards and comments you have about your space and how you’d like it to look and feel. And if you need help with ideas we can also provide that for you. This helps us put together a preliminary selection of finishes and designs that reflect your style. We will then provide a few iterations of floor plans and design ideas to meet and discuss the necessary changes to finalize your design.
