FAQ

What budget should I plan for?

It depends on your goals and your site. In the DC region, most modern additions cost $450k to $900k to build, whole-home renovations $600k to $1.2M, and custom homes $1.2M and up. If you want a realistic number for your property before design begins, start with the Modern Vision Assessment: a $2,500, 10 to 14 day study of zoning, budget, and design potential, credited toward your design fee. Our design fees are fixed and based on scope, never hourly.

Am I obligated to hire you after the MVA?

No. The Modern Vision Assessment is a standalone study, and the findings are yours whether or not you continue with us.

What is the typical project timeline?

Most additions and renovations take about 2 to 4 months of design, 1 to 3 months of permitting, and 8 to 12 months of construction.

Do you stay involved during construction?

Yes. We coordinate with your builder during permitting and stay available during construction to answer questions and help keep the design on track.

Do you recommend contractors?

We can recommend trusted builders who are a good fit for modern projects. We don’t build or manage construction; your builder does, and we stay available to support them.
