The
Schematic Design Phase typically consists
of two to three meetings
and two to
three design sketches.
The Schematic
Design meeting is the
first view of Client’s
floor plan sketches at
1/8th in. scale based
on your Program or wish
list. The Schematic
Plans include the following:
The
First Schematic Design includes the
Site Plan @ 1/16” scale
and the floor plans
with all rooms labeled
with room names,
sizes, and overall
dimensions @ 1/8” scale.
The
Second Schematic Design meeting is
a
combination and
collaboration of the ideas
and comments from the
last meeting and any
discussions in between
meetings.

The
Third Schematic Design meeting
will
be an evolvement of the
floor plans from
the previous meeting and
a sketch of the
front elevation.
Sometimes we will draw
not only a front
elevation sketch but also a
rear sketch if the rear
of the home will be
highly visible from a
lake of golf course.
The primary goal of the
Schematic Design
Phase is to gain
approval of a floor plan
that fixes the outside
walls of the house.
We try to send all
Schematic Designs to
Client via a PDF for
their review prior to
meeting, whenever
possible.
Once the Client has
approved the Schematic
Design and front
elevation, a second
retainer of 20%, for a
total of 40%, of
the total fee will be required to
proceed.
