Why design Build is better (in our humble opinion)

The typical model for home builds and renovations is to hire an architect or design firm to come up with the new layout/design, typically without a strong regard for the cost to build it (as they are not responsible for this part of it). After paying for the design, clients then would need to request many quotes to build it, often finding out that the design is way over their budget or that the builder, who said they could build it, had totally lowered the cost to get the job, and came in way higher in the end. Sound like any stories friends have shared about their experiences? 

A true (there are many who use the name but aren't actually) design & build firm is responsible for both the design and the build and works together to develop a design that is in keeping with the client's tastes and budget, right from the beginning.  

​

Design build, also makes the entire construction process, a lot faster, cost effective and less stressful. Typically, when two firms are working together, there often arises conflict, mis-communication, and a lot of stress on the client to manage the two separate entities. Whereas, with an integrated firm, we are used to working together, have seamless processes and systems where all parties see any changes, and we are working out any build vs design issues behind the scenes and coming to the client with a cohesive solution(s). In the end, our clients are able to come to ONE firm and get everything they require to create beautifully designed, tastefully decorated and thoughtfully built homes, with a lot less stress and wasteful costs.
