Question 2

STAGE 2: CONCEPT PHASE

Accepted Answer

We know that your dream home is a unique reflection of your lifestyle, tastes, and aspirations. That's why we've designed this phase with the utmost care, ensuring a seamless transition between your vision and a concrete plan.

CONCEPT AGREEMENT This is a fundamental document that defines the scope of the conceptual design project and the respective fees. The fees are calculated based on the size and complexity of the project, including design work, revisions, soil report, and topographic survey specific to your land.

DESIGN BRIEF MEETING The journey begins with a detailed meeting where we thoroughly explore your preferences, family needs, and other specific requirements. Our design team collaborates directly with you to truly understand your lifestyle, aesthetic preferences, and functional needs.
We believe your home should be more than just a refuge; it should be a reflection of your personality. It's time to share clippings, Pinterest pins, or saved photos that represent what you envision for your space.

SITE ASSESSMENTS To ensure the project's viability, we conduct essential studies. The soil report allows us to understand the terrain conditions and define the appropriate type of foundation, also providing crucial technical data for the project's engineering. In addition, we carry out a topographic and elevation survey, evaluating the unique characteristics of the site.
These analyses are essential for estimating costs more accurately. We also conduct a site visit to better understand your perspective. In some cases, we may recommend additional urban planning advice.

DESIGN CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT With a clear vision of what you want, our design team begins the creative process. We create a conceptual proposal that gives shape to your ideal home on paper. This proposal is the basis of the personalized project and involves an interactive process where the client contributes with suggestions, feedback, and revisions.
We include all the desired elements, from the architecture to the interior layouts and everything that connects them.

DESIGN CONCEPT REVISIONS Your satisfaction is our priority. You will have the opportunity to review the conceptual design and request adjustments whenever necessary. Our interactive approach ensures that the final result is fully aligned with your vision, down to the smallest detail.
Once the conceptual design is finalized, it can be used for submission in licensing processes (if applicable). From that point, we move on to the preliminary design and execution phase.

Question 3

STAGE 3: PRELIMINARY DESIGN PHASE

Accepted Answer

This phase was designed to make the journey fluid and well-organized, ensuring a single point of contact throughout the entire process.

PRELIMINARY CONSTRUCTION AGREEMENT After the concept is approved, the next step is to formalize our commitment to executing the project. We present a Preliminary Agreement that defines the scope of work, deadlines, and costs involved. With this agreement validated, we move on to preparing the technical documentation necessary for construction.

ENGINEERING Our technical team begins this stage with a detailed structural assessment. Engineering drawings are crucial to ensure the safety of the work and compliance with all applicable regulations.
Whether it's the foundations or the load-bearing structures, technical drawings ensure that every element of your custom home is precisely designed and built to last. We work with experienced engineers who issue the final structural drawings and necessary certifications.

INTERIOR DESIGN MEETING This is the meeting where your home truly begins to come to life. Each space becomes a canvas to unite aesthetics and functionality. We explore in detail the central rooms such as kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, closets, and all storage areas.
Our design team works with you to transform preferences into harmonious and practical solutions that reflect your personality and lifestyle. Every cabinet, countertop, and detail is meticulously thought out to create a functional, elegant, and personalized home.

Material Selection Meeting This is a key moment: it's when you take full control of the design. You choose materials, finishes, and accessories that will bring your vision to life. From kitchen countertops to bathroom tiles, each choice imprints your style on the house. It is at this stage that you build a truly unique home tailored to your needs.

DETAILED CONSTRUCTION DRAWINGS Detailed technical drawings are produced by our design team and serve as the basis for the execution of the work. This phase requires rigorous planning and technical knowledge, ensuring that everything can be built on site without unforeseen problems.
This is where we "build it on paper," which is fundamental for accurate cost estimates, construction planning, and compliance with legal requirements.

3D Modeling: 3D renderings connect imagination to reality, offering a realistic preview of your future home. They allow you to make informed design decisions and ensure that everything matches your vision.

Energy Certification: Energy rating is now an essential factor. It assesses the efficiency and environmental impact of a building. A good certification not only reduces consumption and costs but also demonstrates a commitment to sustainability.
At BRIME, we build homes that meet a minimum Energy Class A rating , combining comfort with environmental responsibility and allowing for more realistic final estimates.

FIXED BUDGET A fixed budget guarantees you a surprise-free experience. It represents transparency, peace of mind, and total control over your investment. With a fixed agreed-upon amount, you know the real cost of the project from the start, with no hidden or unforeseen expenses.
At BRIME, we believe that trust begins with clarity. A fixed budget allows you to move forward confidently towards realizing the home of your dreams.
