Our design process starts with understanding your vision and needs. Creative ideas are then translated into designs through collaboration and feedback. Detailed plans and specifications ensure accurate cost estimates and permits. Finally, your vision is brought to life through construction with ongoing communication and advocacy for your goals.
STEP 01
Early Design
We take a collaborative approach to design, starting with in-depth conversations to understand your specific vision, goals, and needs. We then ignite our creativity through sketching and utilize BIM software to translate those ideas into tangible plans. Accessibility is paramount, so we integrate inclusive design principles from the outset, aiming for a welcoming space for all. Throughout the process, we present our evolving concepts early and often to gather your feedback and ensure the final design perfectly reflects your unique vision, avoiding costly revisions later.
STEP 02
Plans / Permitting
Once we finalize the design, we translate it into detailed plans and specifications. These documents serve as a roadmap for contractors, allowing them to accurately estimate costs and secure necessary permits. We work closely with you to ensure the design stays within budget and meets all jurisdictional requirements.
STEP 03
Construction
With permits obtained and final construction documents in hand, construction can begin. Throughout the build process, we conduct regular inspections, maintain open communication with the contractor, and advocate for your goals to ensure their seamless execution.
Accessibility is a critical factor in project design, especially considering its increasing role in legal disputes, particularly in multi-family housing. THF remains at the forefront by adhering to the evolving requirements and regulations set forth by governing agencies like the FHA, ADA, UFAS, and ANSI. By integrating these technical specifications throughout the design, construction, and alteration phases, THF ensures the creation of better housing for both owners and residents.
