“Our job is more than providing shelter or making sure the kitchen sink is next to the dishwasher; it is to elevate the experience of living and being."

Woolsey Studio has developed a unique process that ensures that each project represents the best collaboration between our firm and our clients. Each project follows its own path but most include the following steps:

1. Establish the Constraints.
We interview you to get your preferences, schedules, and budget. Then gather information the project site and its related legal and regulatory limitations so that we understand any limitations or opportunities from the physical location of the project.

2. Create the Vision.
We provide you with three choices of a plan that fit the constraints and project goals. We then ask you to respond to how well each plan meets your needs with a list of the pros and cons. This input is used to create an overall design that fits you.

3. Make it Work.
We select all of the products and finishes that will be installed in the project so that we can make sure that they fit and work both visually and functionally. We work with our engineers to make sure that structural and technical issues are solved.

4. Communicate it.
We create the architectural drawings, product and furniture specifications, and other documents required for implementation.

5. Make it Real.
We submit the documents to appropriate regulatory agencies for permit, assist with identifying contractors or installers, and can also manage the construction process.
