THE PFAHL PROCESS
These are the broad-stroke steps of our process:
This is how we "Design Dreams, Build Reality"
Phone Consultation:
Conduct an initial assessment of the project feasibility. Clarify the scope of work, needs, budget, timeline, identify potential challenges and see if we are a mutual fit.
We Meet:
Introduction to our team and expertise. Discuss your vision and goals to create a tailored program for your space.
Schematic Design:
We present design options and fine-tune them based on your feedback.
Preliminary Pricing:
This “gut check” delivers a ballpark estimate to help manage cost expectations and keep the project within budget
Construction Documents:
Any revisions as needed to stay aligned with the preliminary budget. The design direction is finalized, and drawings for construction are made, including lighting plans, detailed floor plans, elevations, 3D views, etc.
Engineering:
We coordinate your project with our structural engineers to ensure design integrity and compliance with the Building Code.
Final Pricing with Builder:
Once the drawings are complete, it is time to coordinate with your chosen builder for final pricing. You can begin selecting finishes.
Construction Readiness:
We finalize the plans and your specifications. You are ready to begin building!
