Indian Trail, NC

PHASE 1
This is the initial phase where we have conversations with our client to discuss the challenges they’re facing with their home and brainstorm solutions leveraging our design and planning team.

What challenges is our client leveraging us to solve?

PHASE 2

Areas we're renovating and details we'll work on

During our initial visit, we walked through the home to better understand the clients’ vision and identify key opportunities. That walkthrough laid the foundation for a focused and functional design plan.

We developed 2D layout options to explore different configurations and improve flow and functionality. These drawings guided our next steps in planning.

We met with the homeowners to review layout options, materials, and overall design direction. These sessions helped refine the plan to align with their vision and priorities.

Inspiration images served as a reference point for material choices, layout adjustments, and the overall design vision.
