Our approach
is different.

Most firms have a one directional approach where their ideas are presented at various stages of the design process starting with sketches that turn into construction documents. The client is asked to come in at each stage of development and approve the drawings without a deep understanding of the implications.

Our approach is completely different in that we develop concepts and ideas in the virtual world

By providing our clients with virtual drafts and renderings, they become an integral part of the design team. This allows clients to visualize and help make planning, programming and financial decisions in their context, and understand the implications of each decision.

It’s about you.

Clarity of
purpose

FORM Principals will sit down with you and talk about your wants, needs, vision, and desires, for your future home or project. We will explore all possible directions that will fulfill your dream home design.

We take a deep dive here to help you discover your mojo. We’ll explore what excites you and why, so the real you can come out and be the reason for being. You are the hero and we are your guide throughout the design process.

Part of having clarity is understanding the rules of the game. We do this by performing a “Needs and Options Review.” This review exposes key factors such as zoning restrictions, HOA restrictions, easements, utility connections, environmental impact; and last but not least, finances and budget.

That is Practical
to Build

FORM will take the developed preliminary design and working with your builder of choice, together we’ll create a buildable plan and an estimate of cost that is not only practical, but is also within your budget.

It's one thing to make functional art, but it's quite another to make it cost-effective to build.

We use the same 3-D magic to describe material relationships and connections that contractors love. That's why they keep coming back. We design affordable structures that are well thought out and proven to work before they ever see the construction site. We do structures in an innovative, practical sort of way and take a fresh approach while using familiar construction.

Becomes a
Functional Design

FORM will work hand-in-hand with you to develop a preliminary design that closely follows your dreams & desires, while also creating a living environment that is both beautiful and functional.

This is where you really shine. With you as our captain, we guide you on a well-worn path. Through the magic of Form-Interactive, you can walk through your project as we discuss the pros and cons of each feature. By discarding ideas that don't match up and coming up with new ones on the fly, the building becomes the functional creation of your dream. When the process is finished, you are the author of your story with a complete functional design that meets your needs and your budget.

Has Beauty
of Form

FORM will polish the design work in progress into an aesthetically pleasing final design that fits not only your vision but also the build site, the neighborhood, and the environment.
