Our Design
Phases
Each project is unique. We use a step by step method to control the process.
Project Phases
1.
Project start & GETTING TO KNOW YOU
THIS STAGE INCLUDES IN-PERSON MEETINS, SITE VISITS, OR EVEN VIRTUAL MEETINGS. WE WILL SHARE LOTS OF IDEAS SO I GET TO KNOW YOU AND YOUR PROJECT WHILE YOU LEARN ABOUT WORKING WITH ENCE DESIGNS.
2.
Discussion & Conceptual Design
DURING CONCEPTUAL DESIGN, YOU’LL BE PRESENTED WITH WELL DEVELOPED IDEAS FOR YOUR SPACE. I’LL CREATE 2D (FLOOR PLAN) DESIGN OPTIONS WHICH WE’LL REVIEW TOGETHER. ONCE REVISIONS ARE MADE I’LL CREATE A 3D MODEL TO BRING THE PLAN “TO LIFE” AND REALLY HELP YOU VISUALIZE WHAT THE SPACE WILL LOOK AND FEEL LIKE.
3.
CONSTRUCTION and/or Renovation
TOGETHER WE WILL INVITE CONTRACTORS TO BID USING YOUR FINAL CONCEPTUAL PLAN SET. ONCE CONSTRUCTION IS UNDERWAY, THINGS WILL GET A BIT HECTIC ON THE JOB SITE BUT IT’S EXCITING! IT’S CHALLENGING TO LIVE WITH CONSTRUCTION GOING ON UNDER YOUR ROOF (OR EVEN IF YOU’RE LIVING ELSEWHERE) BUT IT’S SO GRATIFYING TO FINALLY SEE YOUR DESIGN PLAN COME TO LIFE.
4. FURNISHINGS SELECTION & ORDERING
WHILE CONSTRUCTION IS UNDERWAY, WE WILL SELECT AND ORDER FURNISHINGS. WE’LL BE WORKING WITH OUR TRUSTED TRADE VENDORS TO PURCHASE ALL APPROVED DESIGN ELEMENTS INCLUDING LIGHTING, FURNISHINGS, ARTWORK, ANTIQUES, TEXTILES, AND ACCESSORIES.
5. Installation & Final Touches
INSTALLATION IS ANOTHER EXCITING MILESTONE. CONSTRUCTION IS DONE, THE DUST HAS SETTLED, AND THE FURNISHINGS HAVE ARRIVED. (HURRAY!) NOW IT’S TIME TO INSTALL THE FURNITURE AND STYLE THE DECOR WITH FINISHING TOUCHES.
6. Final walk-through
WE’LL CONDUCT A WALK-THROUGH TOGETHER AND MAKE A FINAL PUNCH LIST OF ANY OUTSTANDING ITEMS. WE WILL ALSO HAND OVER PRODUCT MANUALS, CARE GUIDES, AND WARRANTIES.
TIME FOR A TOAST- YOUR BEAUTIFUL NEW DESIGN PROJECT IS FINISHED!
