The Process

The Build Method

A four-phase approach to renovating without the chaos.

Renovating a home should feel exciting, not exhausting. But for most homeowners it becomes a second job: chasing quotes, decoding contractor language, juggling timelines, second-guessing every decision, and hoping nothing gets missed. That's where I come in.

Every Project Every Time

Every YC x Design Project moves through the same four phases

Phase 01

Dream

We figure out what you actually want, and whether it’s possible.

What you get

  • 2-hour in-home discovery session
  • AI-generated visual mood board
  • Realistic budget range
  • Feasibility memo

Phase 02

Design

We turn the vision into approved drawings and a real plan.

What you get

  • Architect & designer coordination
  • Permit and variance management
  • Vendor RFP and shortlist
  • Master project plan with timeline & budget

Phase 03

Build

We run the build so you don’t have to.

What you get

  • Contractor and trade coordination
  • Bi-weekly client updates with photos
  • Budget tracking and change order management
  • Risk log and issue resolution

Phase 04

Reveal

We hand you the keys, and stay close while you settle in.

What you get

  • Final inspections and walkthrough
  • Punch list completion
  • Warranty and documentation package
  • 30 days of post-reveal support, coordinating vendor follow-ups under their warranties

What makes the method different

Vision

Visuals and Mockups so you see your space before a hammer swings.

Vendors

A vetted roster of trusted trades, so you don’t chase quotes or vet strangers.

Velocity

Disciplined budgets and timelines, so the project actually finishes.
