Schematic Design: The Foundation of Your Vision

This is where your dream begins to take its first breath. In this initial phase, we embark on a deep dive into your vision, exploring your inspirations, understanding your lifestyle, and defining your project's essential goals. Think of it as laying the groundwork for a truly bespoke design.

​

Simultaneously, we conduct thorough research into local building codes and zoning regulations – particularly crucial here in the unique Lowcountry environment. Understanding these parameters early on ensures your project aligns perfectly with legal requirements and community standards, helping us confidently navigate any potential challenges right from the start. Together, we'll explore initial design concepts and refine ideas, setting a strong, clear direction for everything that follows.

Design Development: Refined Details, Shaped Space

With a solid vision in place, the Design Development phase is where we begin to meticulously layer in the details. We build upon our initial concepts, carefully selecting materials, finishes, and fixtures that not only capture your unique style but also meet every functional requirement.

​

Collaboration truly blossoms here. We work hand-in-hand with trusted engineers and specialized trades, seamlessly integrating structural, mechanical, and electrical considerations into the overall design. This expert partnership ensures that every technical aspect is thoughtfully addressed, creating a robust foundation for the upcoming construction. Through regular, focused meetings, we review progress, address your questions, and make adjustments, ensuring the design evolves into a cohesive, functional, and beautiful plan ready for construction.

Construction Documents: The Blueprint for Reality

The Construction Documents phase transforms our shared design concepts into a comprehensive, detailed blueprint for execution. This is where we finalize the complete set of drawings and specifications that contractors will use to bring your project to life, and that are essential for securing permits.

We meticulously develop architectural drawings, including precise floor plans, elevations, sections, and intricate details, outlining every aspect of the design with crystal clarity. We also integrate vital input from our engineering and specialized trade partners, providing thorough documentation for all structural, mechanical, and electrical systems. Our commitment to open communication continues throughout this phase, ensuring that the construction team has all the information needed to execute your project efficiently, accurately, and to the highest standards, paving the way for a truly successful build.

Construction Administration: Overseeing Excellence

The Construction Administration phase is our final, hands-on chapter in the design process. During this crucial stage, Perched Architecture actively oversees and administers the construction, serving as your advocate to ensure every element aligns perfectly with our design intent and, most importantly, with your expectations.

​

Our involvement includes regular site visits to monitor progress and verify that the craftsmanship meets our exacting standards. We provide detailed Observation Reports to document findings and any necessary adjustments, ensuring transparency and accountability. Should any questions or unforeseen complexities arise on site, we efficiently facilitate communication and mediate solutions, keeping your project smoothly on track. Our ultimate goal in this phase is to provide you with unwavering peace of mind, knowing that your vision is being realized with the utmost quality and attention to every single detail.
