The first step Laurie uses is to interview her clients carefully and thoughtfully to uncover their wants, needs, and their sense of style, determine a budget, understand how the space will be utilized and what strong preferences they may have.

Laurie then creates and presents a set of working documents—specifications,designs, timelines, and detailed cost breakdowns—that thoroughly explain what can be expected from Laurie and her team.

Laurie orchestrates every detail of the project, calling upon her team of top professionals, including architects, general contractors, landscape architects, trades experts, and industry resources.

Laurie insists on open, thorough, frequent communication with all parties to ensure a smooth process through every project phase. She works diligently with contractors to stay on track and on budget by managing the timeline, controlling costs and holding others to their commitments.

Laurie coordinates with every member of the project team until the final details are installed. She oversees all phases on-site, handling any problems that arise on the spot. Once the project comes to completion, Laurie walks through the new environment with the client to be sure every element has been addressed and fulfilled.
