The destination is nothing without the journey

From first contact to completion

We believe the process is just as important as the result. It is how we got there, the challenges we overcame and the sense of accomplishment that will show in the end.

Step One

Via phone, email or in person, we will get down some general info about your project, what you’re looking for, and how you can best describe it.

Step Two

Next, we will get a little more in depth with exact dimensions of your piece and the space around it. We will determine materials needed, type of wood species you may be looking for, your budget, and timeframe.

Step Three

From here, we can come up with a price estimate, some initial drawings and start on more detailed designs.

Step Four

Once the estimate is approved and deposit is paid, we supply 3D renderings and drawings with exact dimensions, make any last revisions for your approval, order material and getting started!

STEP ONE

Consultation

After a few initial email or phone conversations, we will set up an in-person consultation. Here will have the chance to go over your project in detail with full clarification to make sure we are all on the same page and establish an initial concept and game plan to execute your unique vision.

The consultation is a crucial part in developing a clear direction and scope for your project. Our focus is to get to know you, your style, your needs and your vision.
