Your Home: Uniquely Yours
Our Process
Talk to Me
Once I receive your contact information I will reach out to schedule a call (or meeting if you prefer) to discuss the nuts and bolts of your project. This is my opportunity to ask questions aimed at getting to know more about you, your goals, your tastes, your priorities, etc. This is also your opportunity to ask about me, get a feel for my work and my business and to decide if I am the right designer for you.
FF&E
FF&E refers to “furniture, fixtures and equipment,” or as some like to say, “furniture, fixtures and everything else!” In this phase, the major features of your kitchen or bath will be sourced and purchased. Appliances come first, followed by cabinets, flooring, countertops, backsplash tile, plumbing fixtures, and lighting. Unpredictable lead times require that many items must be purchased and ordered with minimal delay.
Programming
Programming simply means getting into the details of the project: what about the existing space needs to change, how you need the new space to function, style preferences, must haves, timeframe, and of course, budget.
Project Management
Whether you wish to receive contractor referrals from us or work with another source (Houzz, Home Advisors, etc.), your contractor will contract directly with you. However, we will stay engaged in your project throughout the construction phase. This ensures the design vision is adhered to, orders and deliveries are managed properly, and questions and concerns are addressed quickly and efficiently.
Design Development
Following a field measure of the existing space (remodel), we will develop 2-3 floorplan options in AutoCAD for your consideration.* Based on your feedback, we’ll fine-tune the drawing, honing in on details such as appliance dimensions, cabinet fittings, lighting, etc. The finished drawing will serve as a reference for third parties such as the general contractor and cabinet manufacturer.
