DESIGN Café 

 

Not every design solution needs to be a large construction site requiring a roll of drawings and rigorous detail. Not every client has the budget for extensive design services—especially for small projects. Sometimes a few hours with a designer to get some ideas sketched out and some basic notes written up can solve a design problem, and often that is all that is needed to get a project moving.

Our goal is to create an informal but streamlined design process and keep our fees low while you, the client, determine the time spent on the design solution. In order to do so, we provide design services at a reduced hourly rate. Setting a defined meeting schedule at our office will help to ensure that the design budget does not inflate. Meetings can also be scheduled as on-site house calls at a premium rate. We can also measure and prepare “as-built” drawings of existing conditions, and provide a range of additional services beyond the typical scope.
