Getting acquainted and preparing for the journey ahead
It starts a conversation. We want to get to know you and hear all about your goals for your upcoming project. We will tell you a bit about our unique process and explain next steps.
The Warren is a full-service design studio - blending creative intuition with technical expertise to craft considered, individualistic spaces.
We listen carefully, study the architecture, and design with intention, creating spaces that honor both who you are and where you're headed.
From concept to completion, our integrated team manages every element with white-glove service — no stress required.
Our design team visits the project to better understand the scope, identifying any potential challenges or delightful opportunities. At this time we take field measurements and 3-D scans for later reference.
Once scope and deliverables are aligned, we finalize our agreement, set your roadmap, and get to work on the Design phase.

Casting the vision and building the plan
We establish the aesthetic direction - setting the tone for all the design
We explore the possibilities of the floor plan; evaluating flow, form, and any changes that could unlock the
space’s potential. We prepare preliminary drawings, at this stage, you might choose to meet with a contractor for a “ball park” number.
This is the design deep dive - we select, draw and source every piece of the puzzle.
All architectural details, fixtures and finishes are reviewed in realistic renderings, so we can all feel great about upcoming purchases.
We generate a thorough estimate, inclusive of everything we have specified for the design plan. This
gives you a clear picture
of the costs involved.

This is an in person meeting in which the complete picture is revealed. Photo-realistic renderings are accompanied by physical material samples and coordinating estimates.

now we press play!

Making the dream a beautiful reality
We share the drawings with a few trusted contractors - either one of our preferred partners or your contact. We walk the site and review the scope - when bids are returned we help you choose the right person for the job.
All materials, fixtures and furnishings are purchased, received and inspected by our procurement team. We make sure lead items are met and any damages or mix ups are handled before the install date.
We stay closely involved on-site, reviewing progress and supporting the contractor throughout the process.
We handle the dreaded punch list at the close of construction!
Once construction wraps, we swarm the place with art hangers, furniture movers, organizers and stylists to make the vision complete.
This is your made for TV moment - the reveal is a celebration of a lot of hard work, trust, patience and persistence. This is the glorious payoff!
We walk the site with you to make sure any deficiencies are identified and resolved.
