See … before you Build
New home or remodel, 3d design helps you visualize your options. Two dimensional plans are impossible to fully grasp – that’s why so many people change their plans after they see the framing completed.
All our plans are created in 3d. We literally build the house – virtually – helping you get what you want. Additionally, the contractor will better understand what you want.
3d renderings:
- a new kitchen in an old house
- new master bath
- living room layout ideas
NOTE: Sometimes quick renderings are all that are needed to make decisions – photo quality renderings are also possible – just a matter of what is required.
Plans and Permits
Yes we still have to provide all the required plans for permits and can take care of all the paperwork for you.
- schedule
- permit
- energy plans
- structural engineering
Even floor plans are better in 3d
Online Meetings
To help you get your project ready to go as quickly as possible, our online meetings allow us to meet when everyone is in a different location – someone’s at work – someone’s out of town – online meetings are really helpful and an easy to review plans and make adjustments.
