Schematic design is one of the earliest stages of the design process, in which the broad outlines of form and function of your home plan designs are articulated – things like spatial planning, footprints, preliminary materials selection, and more. In this phase, we’ll transition from abstract concepts and ideas to physical drawings while defining the specific architectural elements that will characterize your house plan design.
We produce comprehensive construction documents (CDs) drawn to the highest levels of quality, detail and accuracy. These describe the products, systems, quantities, configurations and performance specifications for building your plan. All undergo multiple stringent Quality Assurance reviews to improve the bidding process, reduce field errors, eliminate back charges and improve the inspection process, helping you move forward efficiently.
During the pre-construction, engineering, and building processes, there are often many questions from a wide variety of team members (sales, trusses, engineering, procurement, trades, etc.) that need answers. We act as a single point-of-contact to help coordinate communication, plan adjustments, and make sure everyone gets the proper information they need, quickly.
As volume builder and production home specialists, we understand community needs. Our team can quickly prepare individually customized lot specific documents to ensure a faster groundbreaking on sales and specs.
A “watched” permit never clears … unless it’s on our watch. Let us “carry the weight” of the wait. Because permitting compliance can be a logistical nightmare, our team is able to handle all city and municipal needs.
We digitize your home plan design library (CAD/Revit) for quick, easy maintenance and modifications. By working in partnership with Davis Bews, you’re not having to track down designs from multiple sources in varying formats. Your plans are always right at hand for quick use, reference and modification. For our clients with high-volume plan revisions, we can establish fixed-fee maintenance agreements, giving you full support and flexibility helping optimize your architectural budget.
If you’re open to options but rigid on budget, visit our online library of ready-to-purchase home plans, available at low rates for single-license use. Search by lot size, features, style, and many other factors to find a plan you’ll love.
