phase one:

Kick Off Call

We will meet in-person at the site to review the space(s) in detail, take field measurements, and provide a questionnaire to help guide us to understand the needs and expectations for the project. A design contract will be provided following this meeting within 24-48 business hours.

phase two:

Consultation

Now it's time to turn those ideas into reality! We'll whip up a preliminary floor plan to give you a sneak peek at the possibilities. And don't worry, if you want to tweak things, we've got you covered with two rounds of complementary changes to the plan. We'll also start sourcing materials to bring your vision to life. From cabinetry to flooring to appliances, we'll find the perfect pieces to make your space shine.

Concept Development

Our initial design presentation is where we will "walk" you through your new space! You will be able to address any concerns while making real-time ajdustments. 

phase four:

Presentation

We will provide a detailed scope of work outlining the work to be done. This is helpful for the contractor in the bidding process and to ensure all areas are covered. We will discuss the final numbers, lasting needs and wants, and ensure we account for every item required for the project to be completed. 

phase five:

Master Plan

Finish materials will be sourced. We will meet at various showrooms and/or your home to ensure you can see, feel and explore the materials. Depending on the scope of the project, this will be a series of meetings. 

phase six:

Sourcing 

During the refining phase, we will ensure that the final design is nailed down. We will make any changes necessary before we move forward to finalizing the design. We will also check shipping and delivery dates as well as building department and engineer delays to get a timeline of when we can begin.

Finish materials will be sourced. We will meet at various showrooms and/or your home to ensure you can see, feel and explore the materials. Depending on the scope of the project, this will be a series of meetings.

Our Process

"She did a marvelous job!"

“I found Samantha on NextDoor and hired her back in June. She did a marvelous job and I highly recommend her. I had her replace my kitchen counters, sink, and faucet. She later upgraded the bathroom. She had the best price and did an amazing job. Send her a text and you’ll be glad you did.”
