construction design that works as hard as you do

While an interior designer primarily focuses on aesthetics—choosing finishes, materials, and colors—a construction designer goes beyond that. We specialize in the technical side of home design, providing detailed structural planning for custom installations that most interior designers don’t handle. Some examples of the expertise we integrate into our package offerings include: • Structural planning for custom installations. • Detailed cabinet plans that integrate with the overall structure. • Finish carpentry plans that add precision and elegance. • Electrical and plumbing plans to ensure functionality and efficiency. This comprehensive approach ensures that every aspect of the home is considered from a construction perspective, providing a solid foundation for beautiful and functional design.

For Builders: We take a significant load off their plate by managing the entire client communication and design process. This includes: Managing the conceptual design and selections process upfront, so builders aren’t caught in the middle of back-and-forth homeowner indecision, last-minute changes, or misaligned expectations. Ensuring every selection aligns with investment goals before construction begins, reducing delays, costly change orders, and last-minute budget concerns. Builders often don’t realize there are alternatives to managing these tasks themselves, so our services relieve them of these burdens, allowing them to focus on what they do best. For Homeowners: We offer professional guidance that ensures their home is both beautiful and functional. Our process includes: Guiding the conceptual design and selections process to create a cohesive, well-thought-out plan that reflects their style, needs, and investment goals. Providing expert recommendations so they feel confident in their choices, avoiding second-guessing and costly changes later. This comprehensive approach not only ensures a smoother, more enjoyable building process but also adds value and efficiency for both parties.

No, we don’t manage purchasing or scheduling, but we make the process easier by sourcing options, gathering pricing, and providing detailed specifications and installation documentation for all chosen materials and finishes involved in the project. Our work ensures builders and homeowners have everything they need to make informed decisions and execute the project seamlessly.

As early as possible! The best results happen when we’re involved from the planning phase, ensuring that design decisions integrate smoothly with construction. However, we can also step in at later stages to provide clarity, troubleshoot issues, or finalize material selections.

We primarily partner with builders, but we do work directly with homeowners who want expert guidance throughout the design and construction process. Whether you’re working with a builder or still in the early planning phase, we can help bring clarity and confidence to your decisions.

Our services are structured based on the level of involvement needed for your project. We offer: • Flat-rate packages for comprehensive design services. • Hourly consulting for specific guidance or troubleshooting. • Hybrid structures where builders and homeowners share the investment. Each project is unique, so we’ll discuss the best approach based on your needs.

We are based in Michigan and primarily work with builders and homeowners in the area. However, we can consult remotely for select projects outside our region.

Absolutely! We collaborate with builders, architects, and trades to create a seamless experience. Our detailed design documents integrate with any team, ensuring a smooth process from concept to completion.
