I’m always thinking about the actual construction of the space. Having briefly worked with a contractor during my transition to starting Balboa Design Group, I learned how things get built and installed. Contractors and I are able to speak the same language given my background. It’s very beneficial for client, designer, and contractor to be on the same page from the very onset of a project, and I pride myself on how many of my completed projects looks almost identical, in real life, to the original conceptual drawings that I presented in the beginning.
