Examples of Residential Projects
in the Early Design Phase
The early design phase is where imagination meets technique, bringing concepts
to life with artistry and precision. This evolving catalog of work-in-progress
showcases projects of varying architectural styles, scales, and locations, each
moving at its own rhythm. Guided by client schedules, design reviews, or technical
problem-solving, this phase is where ideas are explored, refined, and prepared for
the next stage of development.
We blend traditional and modern methods to ensure every project reflects its
fullest potential. “White paper models,” meticulously built over days, allow time for
reflection and the discovery of breakthrough ideas. Digital “white clay” models
provide precision for intricate details, while hand sketches—ranging from quick
drafts to polished renderings—add immediacy and warmth to the creative process.
As each design evolves, we envision the project as if it were already complete: the
play of light and shadow, the textures and finishes of materials, and even the
drama of evening lighting. This gift of three-dimensional visualization allows us to
craft spaces that are cohesive and inspired.
