The Laneway Millwork Philosophy

⬡ Collaboration

I build collaborative, one-to-one partnerships with my clients, many of whom are long-term.

⬡ Relationship

I prize a solid working relationship with you as designer/architect based on trust, clear communication, and mutually understood goals. Our working process is always personalized to your specific needs.

⬡ Stewardship

As a designer or architect, you shouldn’t have to worry about the outcome.
My role is to take care of the practical side so you don’t have to.

⬡ Technical Guidance

I ensure impeccable function and performance to complement your design.

I have the experience to troubleshoot construction and materials options that enhance the durability, practicality and appearance of your project.

This includes:

1) Assessing the performance of design and material choices, and providing practical, experience-based feedback to inform your decisions.

2) Discussing with you how construction choices can affect or even enhance your design.

In assessing these factors, I always consider how a piece will make your client’s everyday life run more smoothly and efficiently, and make your design shine.

⬡ Communication and Flexibility

Poor communication can lead to results that don’t match your design intentions. I am very clear on your options and on my working process so that you know exactly what to expect.

I also understand that designs change even during the construction process. I readily accommodate changes, with clear billing, while keeping you informed from my end about schedules and progress.
