THE HETRICK DESIGN EXPERIENCE

A clear path from vision to build-ready design.

A curated, step-by-step process built on creativity, informed decisions, and technical clarity.

STEP 01

Discovery & Vision

A focused conversation establishes project goals, location, timing, priorities, and overall fit.

STEP 02

Pre-Design

When appropriate, the site and existing conditions are evaluated to identify opportunities, constraints, and the right path forward.

STEP 03

Schematic Design

Plans, massing, roof form, exterior character, and preliminary site relationships are explored through structured design iterations.

STEP 04

Design Development

Approved concepts are refined through window and door coordination, interior layouts, exterior detailing, consultant input, and early pricing alignment.

STEP 05

Construction Documents

The design is translated into a coordinated, permit-ready drawing set with plans, elevations, sections, notes, and key details.

STEP 06

Builder Coordination

Optional bid review and builder coordination help identify scope gaps, inconsistencies, and questions before construction.

STEP 07

Construction Support

Optional clarification, selected site visits, and design-intent support may continue during construction when included.

THROUGHOUT

Integrated Coordination

Major design, structural, interior, and building-system decisions are considered together so the design develops as one coherent whole.

THE RESULT

Confidence to Build

A well-considered design and coordinated drawing set that gives the owner and builder a clearer path forward.
