Pricing
Fixed-fee on most engagements. Hourly only when scope is genuinely undefined. No retainer games, no scope-creep surprises.
Engagement tiers
Most projects fit cleanly into one of three lanes. We quote off the lane that matches your scope, not off a per-square-foot rate sheet.
TIER.01
Starting at $2,500
Fixed-fee · 1–2 weeks
ADUs, additions, simple residential, owner-builder pre-permit clarity.
RECOMMENDED
TIER.02
Starting at $8,500
Fixed-fee · 3–5 weeks
Custom homes, full residential, small commercial tenant improvements.
TIER.03
Starting at $22,500
Fixed-fee or hourly at $145/hr · 6–12 weeks
Multifamily, mid-rise commercial, complex code analysis, phased work.
Add-ons

Photorealistic exteriors and key interior shots. Two revisions included.
Compressed schedule with weekend hours. Subject to studio capacity.
Off-hours phone + portal response for tight construction calendars.
Full bilingual title block, sheet notes, and shop drawings.
Clean change-order packages with sign-off and as-built deltas.
Construction-phase RFI batching with same-day weekday response.
What’s not included
We do not stamp structural, MEP, or civil — those need licensed engineers and we keep that work in the engineers’ hands. We coordinate sub-consultants for you and pass through their fees at cost, with no markup. The same applies to surveys, soils reports, and specialty consultants. You see every invoice. We are happy to recommend the engineers we trust most in the Valley.
FAQ
Fixed-fee on roughly 80% of engagements — Schematic, Permit-Ready, and most Full Documentation jobs are quoted as a single number with milestones. We use hourly ($145/hr) only when the scope is genuinely undefined, like exploratory feasibility work or open-ended code research.
Schematic includes one revision round. Permit-Ready includes two. Full Documentation is generally three plus all plan-check correction cycles. Beyond that, revisions are billed hourly at $145/hr against a written change order — never a surprise invoice.
Yes — typically 25% to start, 50% at schematic milestone, balance at permit submittal. We use Stripe and ACH inside the client portal. No checks unless you really want to.
We do remote work for projects in CA, NV, and NM where the code path is well-understood. We will not take a project where we cannot speak credibly to the local AHJ — that is a recipe for permit delay and we tell you when it is the case.
Project communication, intake, contracts, and the client portal are bilingual at no extra charge — that is how we run the studio. A fully translated documentation set (sheet notes, specs, shop drawings) is an add-on because it adds drafting hours.
