Scope of work

Not sure how far the work reaches?

Load-bearing walls, headers and point loads change the price and the schedule more than any finish does. Read the scope explainer before you budget.

Structural or cosmetic

Planning and money

A $18,000 tile allowance, spent two ways

We publish the arithmetic: what an allowance covers, what it does not, and exactly how a change order is priced when selections move.

The practice

Design and build under one contract

The people who draw your plans stay on the job through framing, inspections and punch list. Nothing is handed off to a stranger at permit.

How the studio works

Where we work

Permits are a local sport

Bellevue, Kirkland and Redmond each run their own review desk and inspection queue. We keep a current read on all three.

Permit sequence by city

Consultation brief

Step 1 of 5

What are you planning?

Pick the closest. Nothing here is binding.

What band are you working to?

Bands, not numbers. If you do not have one yet, say so and we will give you one after the walk-through.

When would you like to start?

Design runs ten to sixteen weeks and permit review adds six to twenty, so a spring start means a conversation now.

Will you stay in the house?
Photographs help more than anything

You can bring these to the walk-through instead. This demo does not upload anything, but the list is the real one we ask for.

  • Rooms as they are nowOne wide shot per room. Phone photos are fine.
  • Crawlspace or basementEspecially anything under the wall you want to remove.
  • The electrical panelDoor open, so we can read the amperage and the breaker count.
  • Plans or permitsAny old drawings, permit cards or a county record card.
How do we reach you?

One working day, with two proposed times for the walk-through.
