WHAT OUR ARCHITECT NEEDED TO GET STARTED

I just wanted to give you a brief heads up of what to expect your architect will ask for from you, so you can hit the ground running!


  • Location of above property improvements & utilities

  • Location of existing structures on the parcel

  • Topographic survey (pending severity of site elevation)

  • Location of water's edge

  • Boundaries / corners - they may ask for a scaled survey map from a professional surveyor

  • Personal goals of house orientation and best views


*TIP: First confirm with your builder/architect if they will require a topographic survey. We waited until we had most of the house designed to engage site engineering, to reduce the amount of site visits ($$).
