Recommendations & Feasibility
Want to refine your inspiration, or better understand how to go about it? I am available for hourly consultation including code research, recommendations, and meeting facilitation.
Not sure who to work with in town? I can tailor recommendations for other professionals based on your needs.
Code Research
A project’s feasibility often depends on what building and land use codes allow. Although building officials’ final code interpretations can vary, a thorough code research up front helps set up a project for success.
Always begin a design process by researching building and land use restrictions specific to the site.
Drafting & 3D Modeling
Want professional drawings? Whether it is documenting what is already built or drawing your dream, I provide drafting and modeling services at a reasonable cost.
Digital models allow us to “walk” through the project, explore sun angles throughout the day, and create a variety of images relatively quickly.
Commercial & Residential Design
Whether it is for commercial or residential, remodel or new construction, the design process helps clarify priorities. Good communication, foresight, and follow-through lead to projects that are enjoyable, economic, and quality. I collaborate with many specialists in town to help projects come to fruition.
Construction Administration
Design work does not end with a permit. The project’s intent must stay alive as the building takes material form. Construction administration work may include inspecting construction, drafting details, and working out any changes with contractor and owner.
Building Permits
Getting the design and drawings done is only part of the process. Most building projects require engaging with the community development bureaucratic team. I am familiar with local codes and regularly permit work in Port Townsend and Jefferson County.
