Our Design Process

MAB is wonderful at listening to potential buyers’ needs and providing them with renderings or drawings to help bring their vision of what a home could be to life. For example, I had clients interested in a condo on the East End of Portland that had the potential for tremendous views that were blocked by a wall and no access to outside space. Mike was able to draw up plans to show them how they could add french doors and a third floor deck to create more living space in an otherwise unused hallway, capture those views, and create some outdoor living space as well. I’d highly recommend bringing gaf.Architecture in early in the process to help your buyers envision what a new space could be.
