Hi, this is Hiromi Ogawa from hiromi ogawa architects. We've been looking forward to telling you about our new service, One
Room at a Time, but it's been a super busy summer (which is a good
thing!) and so, here's a summary of what we want you to know.
One Room at a Time is a turn-key, fast-track, design-build service
where we transform a room (or two) for instant gratification. We have
teamed up with a great builder to provide a one stop shop for you to
get your project done quickly and easily. The response has been great,
especially since we establish a hard cap on the budget, and then work
backwards from there; we're only doing as much as you can afford, not a
penny more.

You
know what I'm talking about - that bonus room you've wanted, the
kitchen that needs a facelift, an unfinished basement or attic with so
much potential. And you keep hoping that you'll have time next weekend
to work on it, right? Maybe you think the project is too small or the
budget too tight for a builder, much less an architect?

Well,
let me tell you a little bit about our approach. My lifelong motto for
practicing architecture has been to make the world a beautiful place,
one room at a time. I feel it is my responsibility as an architect to
ensure that everyone has access to good design expertise. Small
decisions (what paint color? Which window manufacturer? Where to go
to buy a light fixture?) add up to define the quality of your space.
We've been shopping around, accumulating a resource library, drawing
details, refining room layouts for our entire design career, so that we
can help you with those decisions. In order to make our services more
user-friendly, and make the whole process easier to approach, we
decided to package our services with a dedicated contractor. You
establish the budget, and we help you streamline design and
construction, every step of the way. The projects are small enough
that we can go from our first design meeting to move-in ready in a few
weeks. We can even time the construction so that you are on vacation while it happens. We meet, we draw, we build, and PRESTO! You are done!

The
recession may have put your bigger dreams on hold, but that just means
you need a little sanctuary in your house - a room you love - now more
than ever, to escape the gloomy economy, and the colder months ahead.
Your quality of life could greatly improve by having one beautiful room
in your house for you and your family, a place where you can (finally!)
entertain your friends and be yourself.

It
only sounds like a sales pitch because I am not very eloquent at
telling you how much I believe in spreading good design. Good
architecture is for everyone. And we want you to have it, one room at
a time. Give us a call or send us an email, and let's get started!
