HBS Design Phases
Conceptual Design Phase
Most projects begin with a site visit and we discuss the scoop of work, needs, budget, schedule, professional design fees, permits and construction costs. At this point, we can develop a plan of action usually involving ordering a survey, soils report, and preparing or acquiring as built existing drawings and site analysis then we can begin examining various design options. We then look at various options and determine benefits and budgetary considerations.
Design Development Phase
Starts by selecting a scheme to develop from our concept phase and begin to define in exact detail; space planning, furniture layouts, room dimensions, window size and locations, structural and mechanical systems all are located in this phase. Building elevations, interior elevations of kitchens and baths as well as any landscaping or site features are all drawn in this phase with building materials are also being selected and called out during this stage.
Construction Document Phase
Begins by adding all the information necessary to the drawings for both city officials and contractors in order to obtain to building permits and release plans for bidding. In this stage we are coordinating plans with engineering consultants for structural, civil and landscape plans. Depending on the complexity of the project, square footage and other details this phase can vary from 3 weeks to 3 months and require anywhere from 8 to 30 drawings.
Construction Phase
Begins with obtaining city permits, issuing plans for bidding and can include supervision. On many simpler projects phases are combined and we can be submitting for a building permit within a few weeks, or the project may not require permit submittal.
