Our Design Process
Our Design Process includes the following:
- Initial Meeting — R&R will meet with the Owners to discuss the overall objectives/goals of the proposed new work, to determine the preliminary scope of work, and the feasibility of the project. The Initial Design Meeting typically requires up to two hours.
- Photo/Measure — R&R will take photos of the existing residence and areas to be affected by the proposed work, and take measurements of the areas to be affected by the proposed work. R&R will develop a set of scaled “as-built” drawings which will provide the basis for the proposed project design. The Photo/Measure typically requires three or more hours.
- Preliminary Design — R&R will deliver the “as-built” drawings along with at least two (2) design alternatives to the Owners, and obtain feedback/corrections/suggestions to refine the proposed designs. R&R may send renderings of proposed designs to Owners in advance or in lieu of a Preliminary Design Meeting (via e-mail or hard copy), to facilitate the design evaluation/feedback process.
- Updated Design — R&R will update the design based on Owners’ feedback from the Preliminary Design and present it to the Owners for approval. R&R may send renderings of the updated design to Owners (via e-mail or hard copy) in advance and/or in lieu of an Updated Design Meeting. Once the Owners have reviewed the updated design and confirmed that the design meets or exceeds the Owners’ objectives for the proposed work, R&R will provide the design to Square One Remodeling, who will develop a preliminary budget for the actual construction of the proposed design. Upon obtaining Owners’ approval to proceed, based on the preliminary budget, R&R will complete the updated design and present it to the Owners for approval.
- Final Design — R&R will incorporate feedback from the Updated Design into a consolidated/updated design for the new work, and present a “final” design to the Owners for review and approval. R&R may send renderings of the proposed final design to Owners in advance of a Final Design Meeting (via e-mail or hard copy), to expedite completion of the design work.
