Our Process

1. Initial Consultation: Our journey begins with a comprehensive consultation where we discuss your vision for your dream home. We'll explore details such as the number of bedrooms, the inclusion of a basement or bonus room, and spaces for work-from-home needs. Please share your budget, timeline, and any special requirements or desires to ensure we capture the essence of your dream.

This helps us understand your preferences by observing how you interact with your current living spaces or by showcasing the possibilities available through our work.
