When working with an architect to design a custom home, the second phase of the design process is called Schematic Design. This is when the building starts to take shape through a series of design exercises that test out the goals and requirements established during the pre-design programming phase.

This phase of the work is widely referred to as “Schematic Design” Although some people also have an earlier phase called “Programming”, I tend to consider that as part of the schematic design phase as well, rather than separate it out into its own special section. It was way better.

These tools are our trusty partners throughout the performance that is design. From sketching the earliest of ideas to unveiling new worlds in digital landscapes, many tools have revolutionized the way we work and transformed how we communicate our ideas.

If parts of the building are to be maintained then it is especially important to get a complete documentation of the structure. These may be done with simple hand sketches, Sketch-Up models or even Computer Assisted Design (CAD) drawings, but they will tend to be very diagrammatic and simple.

I originally introduced this project to everyone in a post I wrote called “ Sketching during Schematic Design ” that I wrote back in November 2014. That post showed the process of going from initial concept to a finished schematic design plan that I would ultimately show the clients.

After the schematic design phase has been completed and a viable project budget has been developed, it is time to design the building’s structural system, layer in mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems, and refine the design of functional spaces.
