9 Great Spaces works with individual clients and contractors to create DESIGNS and CONSTRUCTION DRAWINGS for any type of residential construction project.

Not all good builders are also good designers.  Even Do-It-Yourself-ers can benefit from advice and DRAWINGS created with insightful ideas and sensible and orderly master planning guidance from 9 Great Spaces. Our extensive design experience will help you save money and avoid the heartache of construction hindsight.

Contractors use our DESIGN & DRAFTING SERVICES to create preliminary design presentations for clients as well as drawings & documents for permit and construction.  We can work behind the scenes from your ideas and sketches or collaborate directly with your clients to create the design.

Also for Contractors, a PLAN REVIEW by 9 Great Spaces is an extremely valuable tool to update, correct, or customize plans.  Getting an expert second opinion improves any design.  

PLAN REVIEWS are especially useful for kitchens and baths, where 9 Great Spaces corrects common design errors and creates beautiful and practical spaces that excel beyond the norm.

REMODELING DESIGN is a skill developed over time.    9 Great Spaces has over 25 years of remodeling experience creating designs for one room or an entire house, including: 

KITCHENS & BATHS                                     FINISH A LOWER LEVEL                              CARVE OUT A SMALL ENTRY from existing space   

REARRANGE OR COMBINE ROOMS to create a MASTER SUITE,   a LARGER KITCHEN,       or a GREAT ROOM.

The KITCHEN is the heart of any home.  A great kitchen makes cooking and sharing meals easier and entertaining friends and family more fun.

An organized and comfortable BATHROOM gives a greater sense of well being, especially when preparing for the day or getting ready to retire in the evening.

Beautiful and functional KITCHEN & BATH DESIGN is a specialty of 9 Great Spaces.  We offer assistance at whatever level is needed, from simple advise, to drawings for permit and construction, to helping select materials and fixtures.  Allow us to help create your DREAM KITCHEN or BATHROOM, whether it's new construction or a remodel.  

9 Great Spaces creates professional design presentations and complete CAD drawings for permit and construction.

PRELIMINARY DESIGN IDEAS and QUICK SKETCHES can help you make the sale!  Whether the project is large or small, bringing drawings and 3D images to the table to show your customers the potential of their project will improve your professional image and get them excited!

We can work with you behind the scenes creating preliminary design options or collaborate directly with your customers on design ideas and drawings.  

Preliminary drawings with your company name in the title block helps keep potential customers more loyal while you work to land their project. 

An ADDITION can greatly improve the usability of a home.  When you want to stay in your existing home and have room on the property, an addition can give you the home you've always wanted, right where you already live.  

ADDITIONS are often part of a larger home remodel where existing rooms are combined or divided to create a larger Great Room and Kitchen or a Master Suite.  Adding a second level, or expanding the existing second level over a one-story or vaulted main level can be a cost effective way to get the space you need for a growing family.

An ADDITION can be as small as an expanded entry or large enough to double the size of the existing home.  

Designing a NEW HOME from scratch is an amazing experience.  It allows one to create a home completely tailored to fit the people who will live there.

Working within the guidelines and constraints of the lot size and shape, site conditions, codes, design parameters, and budget, a home takes form.  9 Great Spaces has the skill and experience to put all the pieces together into a beautiful and functional custom home.

 9 Great Spaces can also MODIFY OR CUSTOMIZE A PLAN from a Builder or a MODIFY A DESIGN FROM ANOTHER SOURCE- like a book, a magazine, or online.   We work with you to select the parts of a plan or design that work and tweak the design to fix the parts that don't. We can modify many designs to fit the building site and conditions and also change a design to specifically fit the needs of a family and budget.

Get it right BEFORE you build.  A PLAN REVIEW will improve any design and reduce those "if only we'd known" moments of regret after a building project is finished ( "construction hindsight" ).

A PLAN REVIEW is a great value.  Many clients say a it was the best money spent on their construction project!

This Redmond, WA project began with a PLAN REVIEW.  Using preliminary drawings provided by the builder, the entire 3 level home design was gutted and re-done.  Site and design parameters dictated the house must stay within the original foundation footprint.  This collaboration between 9 Great Spaces and the Builder transformed a poorly laid out plan into a home built with masterful and artistic craftsmanship.
