HOUSE PLAN AND GARAGE PLAN DESIGN PROCESS
Preliminary:
Conceptual floor plans and the front elevation are generated. The purpose of this stage is to establish room sizes, room orientation, gross floor area, and roof lines.
Revisions:
(Unlimited)
Your comments and changes are applied to the initial concepts. Common revisions at this stage include relocating rooms and adjusting square footage.
Detailed Revisions:
(Unlimited)
Once the basic layout is established the emphasis is placed on more detailed revisions such as opening sizes and location, optional kitchen and bathroom layouts, Ceiling styles, and exterior finishes. The foundation plan and all four elevations are also created at this stage.
Final Detailed Plans:
Once you are 100% satisfied with your new house design, then all structural components and notes are applied to the house plans preparing them for permit and construction. This includes a cross section and wall details.
