01
Discovery
Each project begins with a comprehensive discussion to identify your needs, establish scope, and understand how you want your home to feel and function.
02
SCHEMATIC DESIGN
After exploring your preferences, our team creates a visual concept of your home that will guide the construction, if building, and the overall design direction of your interiors project.
03
Design Development
We develop a schematic or interior design, and collaborate with you to ensure every detail is perfect. This is a visual and tactile process, where your home’s design is refined.
04
Procurement
After the overall design has been fully realized, our team facilitates the bidding process with contractors and vendors. Our in-house procurement team orders new furnishings, fixtures, and accessories for your home.

Our residential building design team facilitates all aspects of your home’s construction in this stage. When it comes time for the interior design, our team installs all furnishings, art, and accessories for your home.

Reveal
Your home has been fully designed, with exceptional care, thoughtfulness, and innovation. When interior design is complete, we have a few surprises left before we pop the bubbly and welcome you home.
