Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

🔧 1. What is your design process from start to finish?

We follow a clear 3-step process:

Discovery & Consultation – We start with an in-depth discussion to understand your space, goals, and timeline.
Design Development – We develop tailored concepts, plans, and visuals aligned with your style and needs.
Finalization & Handoff – You receive the necessary drawings and presentation documents for permitting and construction execution.

⏱ 2. How long does the design process typically take?

Timelines vary based on scope and response time during revisions:

Kitchens & Baths: Generally 2–4 weeks
Basements, Decks, and Additions: 3–5 weeks depending on complexity

💵 3. How is pricing structured?

We offer flat-fee design packages that vary by project type and scope. This ensures you know your investment upfront, with no surprises. We provide clear expectations on what’s included before work begins.

📦 4. What will I receive at the end of the design process?

Each client receives a professional package that may include:

Detailed floor plans and layouts
Design visuals or 3D concept presentations
Elevations and cabinetry drawings
Permit-ready documents (when applicable)
Project notes for contractor execution

Deliverables vary by project type and package level.

🏗 5. Do you handle the construction or installation?

No — we are strictly a design-only firm. Our focus is on creating construction-ready plans and stunning visual concepts. However, we routinely coordinate with your contractor or builder to ensure your project is built to plan.

🛠 6. Can you work directly with my contractor?

Discovery & Consultation – We start with an in-depth discussion to understand your space, goals, and timeline.
Design Development – We develop tailored concepts, plans, and visuals aligned with your style and needs.
Finalization & Handoff – You receive the necessary drawings and presentation documents for permitting and construction execution.

🔁 7. How many revisions are included? What if I change my mind mid-project?

One revision round is included in every design package. Additional revisions can be added for a flat fee. Larger scope changes may require updated pricing depending on the stage of the project.

🌍 8. What areas do you serve?

We proudly serve clients across the DMV region (DC, Maryland, and Virginia). We also offer virtual consultations and full-service design packages for clients outside the DMV area.

🖥 9. What tools do you use to visualize the design?

We use industry-grade visualization and documentation tools to create highly accurate plans and immersive 3D design previews. This allows you to experience your space before construction begins, helping you make informed design choices with confidence.

🧾 10. Can I use your plans to apply for a building permit?

Yes. If your package includes permit-ready documentation, your final deliverables will meet local jurisdiction requirements. As part of our services, we also prepare and manage your permit application process as needed.

That’s exactly why we exist. Whether you’re updating a kitchen or planning a major addition, we walk you through each step — from inspiration to layout to final plan — making sure you feel confident and supported throughout.
