Concept Explorer Inquiry Form

The information you provide here helps us understand your goals, constraints, and priorities so that we can begin a meaningful conversation about the project's context. This is important because it helps frame our exploration of meaningful design options and identify early decision drivers that directly relate to the solutions you are willing to investigate.

This service focuses on investigation, testing ideas through various concepts, and understanding the potential of different solutions. 

Construction-ready drawings for a building permit are not included in the Bronze Level Service.​

Use this form to request a Concept Explorer consult. This stage is ideal when you want to explore options and test “what-if” scenarios before you commit to consolidating the design and the preparation of the construction-ready drawings.

Important: If you don’t yet have documented confirmation of site information (boundary survey/topographic survey), zoning/by-law constraints, or a budget reality-check, a Project Clarity Call is the best first step.

We'll point you in the right direction to help you find existing drawings of the building(s), learn what existing work was done (with or without a building permit), purchase a copy of the property's survey, access septic system design documents, well records, etc.

We're here to help you build a good, solid foundation of knowledge for your project.

If these are not documented, that’s normal. It simply changes the best first step (often feasibility before deep concept work).

If you have documents (boundary survey/topographic survey, municipal emails, existing plans), hold onto them for now. These can be shared after we have our discussion.

What happens next
  • We'll review your information and determine the best starting point (Concept Explorer versus Project Clarity Call first).
  • If appropriate, we'll provide a brief outline of the information needed and recommend a clear next-step path towards completing the Schematic Drawings, then onto the Construction/Building Permit-Ready documentation later.
Note: building permit pathways vary from municipality to municipality, and the required consultants needed for the project, including other regulatory authorities. We will clarify what applies to your project.
