The Design Process

The Process:
Client requests there space to be reviewed
Meeting with client
Site measure + photos
If not already available create floor plan of existing
Create inspiration / mood boards to help client see what the final design could look like
As per client discussion create new floor plan options for approval
Select furniture and finishes for project scope and have client approve
Once approved layout is determined work on construction drawings
These include (may be additional ones):
Demo plan
Floor plan
Reflected Ceiling Plan
Elevations and Millwork
Furniture and electrical planSections
*The better the detail the more accurate the quotes for construction
Have client review drawing set, go over furniture selections and details with client
Hire or bid out for contractors
Apply for permits if necessary
Once project begins, manage project through to completion
This is just a small project currently underway. Next post to cover just how HGTV is not like the real world.
Happy Designing friends
