1: Start

Every Great Project Starts with Clarity.

Before drawings, before budgets — we help you define the right starting point.

What Step 1 Covers

  • Define Goals

    What do you really need or want from this space?

  • Early priorities

    Must-haves vs. Nice-to-haves.

  • Next Step Clarity

    How Step 2 (Visualize) builds on this foundation.

Why It Matters

Most remodels go off the rails before the design even begins. Step 1 is where we slow down and get clear: what’s possible, what’s practical, and what’s going to serve your family long-term. With that foundation, everything else falls into place more smoothly.

You Choose What’s Next:

  • A workspace with a desk, a cup of coffee, a brown notebook, a smartphone, and a person writing in a design journal. There is an open laptop displaying a photo of a family outdoors, with a scenic view of mountains, trees, and a lake outside the window.
